Looks like FIFA is up if 18 got 500k at the first attempt while 17 took a year to get it. I got the HK version so I helped as well

Really gotta wonder how big FIFA could be in Asia if EA were able to get the Chinese Super League licence.

FIFA 17 could be at 900k, both games received an award for at least selling 500k but I admit that it's very impressive for FIFA 18.
