EA celebrates the biggest European game launch in the companyâs history today, as more than 1.7 million copies of EA Sportsâ FIFA 10 sell during the first week of release alone.
EA is rolling out the review scores and posting big numbers as it celebrates the success of FIFA 10 in Europe, calling it the fastest selling sports game of all time. Italyâs Official Xbox Magazine calls it âthe best football game ever.â ConsolPlus Germany is calling it âthe best football game the world has ever seen.â Our own Luke Plunkett said it âcomes close (damn close) to both feeling â and, for spectators, looking â like the real thing.â While our U.S. readers try to figure out why they keep calling it a football game, we turn to EA Sports president Peter Moore.

Since the game launched, more than 10 million sessions have been played online, with more than 155,000 players online simultaneously during peak hours. Quite impressive!
FIFA 10 hits North America on October 20th, with sales numbers that are sure to be far less impressive.
