EA Football Games Sell

[WetWired]

Electronic arts announced today the recently released Madden NFL 2004 sold two million copies in the first 3 weeks, and that NCAA Footbal 2004 has sold over a million copies since it's release a few weeks ago. Apparently, sport games sell better than I thought they do :confused: .

Madden 2004 is grrrrrrrreeeeeat! (ps2 at least)

Sports games sell a lot because parents will buy their 9 year old kid the game, and older gamers(30+) can be more drawn to play a sports game in 'real world setting' than a fantasy game in 'fake world dimension'
