Mr. Frostbite is here!

 

[Long Division]

OK, Jose Mourinho coming on stage is pretty cool.

"Who's that guy?"

 

[f0rk]

I know this doesn't play with Americans, and I don't really care about football, but that intro was pretty good

 

[Strax]

lol Jose

 

[StoveOven]

I don't mind spending time on sports games, but they should focus on the actual game instead of just having famous people on stage

 

[Luke_Wal]

I mean, they said it's Q1 2017 in their last earnings call.

God am I pissed they didn't show more.

Remind me: fiscal Q1 or actual calendar Q1?

 

[Myggen]

God I hate you Jose.

 

[jediyoshi]

*Peter Moore takes off mask*

PELE IS BACK

 

[RealityCheque]

What's your gamertag Jose? Prove your gamer cred!!

 

[Infinite Justice]

lol @ that Jose reveal

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Go home Jose, you're drunk

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

I mean, they said it's Q1 2017 in their last earnings call.

God am I pissed they didn't show more.

I just add 3 or 4 quarters to any big or little title nowadays. Keeps the letdown small.

 

[oti]

This is wrestling.

 

[avengers23]

No Way Joe-se

No Way Joe-se

 

[Dragon Puncher]

Wait, is there only 20 coaches in the game?

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

Wtf is going on?

 

[Archaix]

These soccer stars that EA always brings in, so charismatic.

 

[MassiveNights]

Mourinho coming on stage will mean nothing to you guys/Giant Bomb but he's the biggest manager in the sport and this plays well to the UK etc.

 

[Technosteve]

so he's the new red alert villain?

 

[JGLS]

Mourinho confirmed main antagonist in the Journey.

 

[Easy_D]

"This dude has the tone of a Bond villain". I don't think I've ever heard a statement this true before, that's spot on :lol

 

[Megawarrior]

6, maybe 7 people.

Also, Frostbite isn't as big of a selling point as they think it is. Every model in that trailer looked a bit weird.

Yeah I don't think this was the game to sell the engine. Everyone looked a bit 'doll' like.

 

[RealityCheque]

This is wonderful. Now he's going to take a shit on the middle of the stage and then walk away.

 

[Tagyhag]

Holy shit. How the hell did they get Mourinho?

 

[kiguel182]

This is amazing but obviously doesn't work for GB crew.

 

[Rhaknar]

hilarious how oblivious they are about football

 

[PowerTaxi]

"This guy has the tone of a Bond villain"

Alex isn't wrong.

 

[Myggen]

Mourinho didn't give a fuck about that, haha.

 

[Lunar FC]

Should of brought in Kloppo.

 

[daveo42]

What is even happening? Soccer shit talking?

"Tone of a Bond villain"

 

[| Praxis |]

Now Americans know how the rest of the world feels when they mention a basketball/American football/hockey player by name.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Holy shiiiiit more Feefaaaaa

 

[Strimei]

EA showed us a lot?

Because that sure didn't feel like a lot.

 

[MassiveNights]

Mourinho didn't give a fuck about that, haha.

Basically gave them shit for not including more managers, superb.

 

[Glass Shark]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

 

[avengers23]

I thought Fable: The Journey wasn't a thing?

 

[Strax]

Holy shit. How the hell did they get Mourinho?

Trucks of money

 

[Long Division]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

One of the biggest franchises in the world.

 

[Lunar FC]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

How have you not realized that yet?

 

[kiguel182]

Now Americans know how the rest of the world feels when they mention a basketball/American football/hockey player by name.

Pretty much. Feel our pain!

 

[Adnor]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

FIFA is one of the biggest video game series ever.

 

[Prophane33]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

It's consistently one of the best-selling games in the world.

 

[SMG]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

Football is massive in tons of countries.
The sales are always good.

 

[ScaryShark]

I guess FIFA is way bigger than I realized.

It makes an absurd amount of money through Ultimate Team mode. Most people would be shocked how much money individual people put in to that annually.

 

[Curufinwe]

Mourinho arriving was great.

GB guys all totally clueless as to who he is.

 

[undecided]

FIFA is huge but the progress of sports games lately has been really boring.

 

[Easy_D]

Is "Game-Engine Footage" the new way of bullshotting video, making people think it looks that good, but it doesn't because it's not actually in-game footage??

 

[cb1115]

soccer is stupid

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Good to see I didn't miss anything exciting.

 

[Glass Shark]

How have you not realized that yet?

I don't play sports games or follow sports in real life. Even in the gaming communities I'm a part of, FIFA really never comes up.

I guess that's what I get for being an ignorant American.
