The game was just released in the United States a few weeks ago, but European gamers had their copies weeks before and the title has been selling very well since it's release. That's why EA has called for celebration because their title, Fifa 09, has hit one million UK sales after enjoying most successful opening week in the series. This achievement means that the FIFA franchise has now sold 10 million units in the UK over the past five years.
%26ldquo;We are delighted with the success of FIFA 09,%26rdquo; said Dan Holman, marketing manager for EA Sports. %26ldquo;We have continued to listen to gamers and football fans and the result has been the fastest-selling FIFA game in franchise history.%26rdquo;
