At EA's European Winter Showcase earlier in the week EA's VP & GM of Northern Europe Keith Ramsdale said that there were "big smiles at EA at the moment" following the launch of FIFA 12.

Speaking at the event, Ramsdale said "FIFA went out just a couple of weekends ago. We had record pre-orders and record sell-through, and when you look at Pro Evolution Soccer versus FIFA, only five years ago in the UK PES was outselling FIFA. On its first weekend like-for-like we've just outsold PES by 25 times.

"That's a sign of the momentum and the fanbase and community behind FIFA, and let's be clear, an absolutely kick-arse game. It's unbelievable."

Thanks, Gamerzines.
