fifa is a very good game and hundreds of millions of people on this planet love and live for football. in many european countries, football is the topic of every second discussion, people are members of football clubs, meet each other to plan the next trip to a game and such things. the passion for football in many countries is much bigger as the passion for any sports, as example the passion of us-americans for their sports in usa. no clue where you come from but if you are from a european country like uk/germany/spain you should know that.
and i think it makes sense that fifa is selling better and better, fans don't care if there are many changes, it's a new season with new players in the teams and with that you buy a new game and don't play the last season anymore, it's simple as that. and you also buy a new jersey/scarf and stuff like that.
the reason why it is still increasing so much in sales is because they advertise it more and more every year and i think because more and more football fans own a hd console. i think many football fans who buy a console not for many games except fifa and few more are those who buy the consoles now and not who bought the console after release.
and if you have some friends who also love football which is not very hard in those countries, there is not much better for console than playing some rounds of fifa against each other. if it is online or offline with friends. it's perfect to play some rounds fifa before and after you watch a real game on tv with those friends.
