    Re: FIFA 15 Features All 20 Barclays Premier League Stadiums, Over 200 Player Head Sc

    Was really happy to see this news today. THIS is effective marketing. Honestly I didn't expect any of it as we didn't have any concrete evidence of scans or new stadiums up until this point.

    Apparently we've got reason to be excited for tomorrow as well. I would think a similar announcement is due sometime between now and Gamescom. I'm guessing either the Bundesliga (official partners with EA since last year IIRC) or Serie A (who had that press release with EA not too long ago) will get the same treatment... or maybe La Liga.

    Hopefully EA can continue to make this kind of commitment to other leagues in the future as this made a lot of people happy.

      It's the Turkish League. I'm calling it right now. Futhead has been begging EA for the Turkish League for as long as I could remember.

            The good thing for the consumer is this puts a kind pressure on other leagues to lower financial barriers for their product to be represented in a similarly robust manner. Think about it, these leagues are competing in a market, and suddenly the BPL gains gravity in a sales tool hitting around 5 million annual units sold.

              Which other leagues? There aren't many relevant leagues which aren't in the game already, FIFA has the Saudi Arabia league ffs

                    A full slate of La Liga stadiums would be awesome. But it would also be huge for them to have done the Championship, getting at least all of the teams stadiums in it. That way when a Fulham get promoted again, you have an authentic stadium. I'm just praying that the guys over at Moddingway decide to tackle the new game. One, Ariel is down in Brazil, and his league got dumped. Two, I know there is going to be a HUGE learning curve for those guys with the new engine. But, if they come through, with the new engine and all the bells and whistles that EA has ALREADY put into the game, I think it has a chance to be the greatest looking soccer title, ever. Take my money..... PLEASE!

                      I've heard they extended their partnership with the BPL...the question is, is it exclusiv or not?

                        Good news all around.

                        I'm sure more stadiums (La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga) and face scans will be added to future FIFAs. This is probably all they could get done in a year's time.
                        The chants are cool but correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't FIFA already have goal-line technology? It's in there but it's just not reviewed like it is IRL.

                          They did announce agreement with the ref association last year, and I believe that the real ref kits were added to FIFA14, but nothing has been said that EA intends to include the actual authentic refs in FIFA, at least that I've heard about.

                            It's a Premier League Exclusive deal, meaning the PL branding will only be in FIFA. The individual clubs can however make deals independently with Konami to be in Pro Evolution Soccer.

                              I mean to have the total image rights to all the stadiums and likenesses for leagues that don't package all of those things together. The BPL now has their league represented in more thoroughly in the game, and it makes it more attractive and notable for the players relative to other leagues in the game.

                                Ok good point although I guess when they make individual deals with clubs they can already create their stadiums and chants besides scanning the players, something I don't see them taking much advantage of.
