FIFA & Madden 12 Sales Totals

ea logoEA Sports has released the sales totals for their 2 most popular sports video game titles FIFA 12 and Madden 12.  FIFA 12 sold 10 millions copies while the popular football game Madden 12 sold 5 million.  These numbers are total sales all the way through to the consumer as opposed to sales to retail stores like our report on NBA 2K12’s 4 million copies sold.  FIFA 12 sales are great in comparison to the blockbuster shooter franchise Battlefield 3 which also sold 10 million copies.  It looks like the NFL lockout and the release date being pushed back 3 weeks didn’t seem to hurt sales of Madden 12.

nba 2k12 lin updateNBA 2K12 has released it’s latest roster update which we are referring to as the “Jeremy Lin” update.  After leading the Knicks to an undefeated record while playing without Caremlo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire, JLin was only given a 69 overall rating.  If his dominant play maintains over the next few weeks, there is no question that he will be around an 80 overall in the next update.  The roster update is now live on both XBOX 360 and PlayStation 3.  Do you think a 69 overall rating for Jeremy Lin is fair?  Let us know in the comments section.
