It took Sony 30 years to sell less than 250,000 Walkman's.

It took Apple 10 years to sell 300 Million iPods.

Apple has become a household brand. Pretty much everyone i know has some sort of Apple product in their house.

R.I.P Steve.

I know this is not the place for this but this is worst stat I have ever seen - you simply cannot compare the two.

RIP Steve. Have fun in the iCloud.

Why?

Tactical is forced in online ranked and ultimate team.

Getting High Warlord on World of Warcraft. **** doing that again.

**** jammy rocket polishers.

The EA SPORTS special FIFA 12 gaming hub is travelling the length and breadth of the country visiting various clubs on matchdays this season - and Villa's turn arrives on Saturday.

I'm looking forward to beating a few people before watching another Villa Draw.

I love just watching people come straight from COD to BF3. They run straight out into the open thinking they can gun the whole team. Was pulling 40+kills yesterday. Playing Battlefield always reminds me of the hundreds of hours spent playing Battlefield 2 on PC. Can't wait for this now.

They really should open up Caspian Border for the console.

Downloaded on xbox.

Went to play... cant get a game. EA servers fuuuuuuuuuucked!

It's been like that since Tuesday. You just have to keep trying. Took me 30 minutes yesterday.

The beta is now open to everyone.

Prefer the PS3 though as games like Fallout 3, Orange Box, Fifa 11 all seem to look better on PS3.

lol

Comparison

And PS3 supposed to have more power.

I went in and asked about that HMV deal with the 2100 MS points and they didn't have a bloody clue. Said to go back in today to ask as they couldn't see anything on the computer and hadn't been told about it...

Pre-ordered mine from HMV yesterday and got the deal.

What a **** bargain!

Xbox 360 S Console Bundle With 250GB HDD + FIFA 12 + Gears Of War 3 - Matte Black.

£199.99

Don't know how long this deal is going to be up for.

Play.com

Any word on those Turk/Czech leagues chaps?

After the last actions taken by UEFA against the corruption in the Turkish League and the higher costs of the licenses for the Czech league,EA may not feature these 2 leagues and their national teams in the future release of FIFA 12.

Going to get mine from HMV. £46/you get Limited edition + 2100 Microsoft points. **** bargain.

You can play on the 29th when it becomes open to everyone. Just in-case you don't get a code.

Got my Beta key just now. I guess that's my fun for the week until Fifa comes out.

I've already seen videos of the chairman going over your head to sell a player.

Oh ****, if they've built that function in then Villa'll be screwed.

Got a link at all?

He's a link to an in depth review of the Manager mode.

Seems that prices are ridiculous and loads of big name moves. I.E/ in the video he managed to buy Rooney for Man City.

Looks like Villa get a £30m transfer budget in Career Mode. Not too shabby, thought it'd be much worse actually. That'll be going straight on Milner and Cahill.

Holy shit, Citeh's transfer budget is £175m. Damn FIFA, you scary! :shock:

I've already seen videos of the chairman going over your head to sell a player. Seen both Ronaldo and Messi sold due to being "unsettled"

Rooney out injured and Aguero/Dzeko doing bugger all, they cost me serious points.

Are those deals just at midnight or ongoing (while stocks last)?

I think most of them are ongoing, but only up till a certain date. I know our HMV and Asda isn't opening at midnight. I'd phone them and just make sure though.

MUST WIN i repeat MUST WIN. Thank you in advance, because if we draw or lose ill throw myself from the upper Holte.

I have a few deals that i've seen so far. The best looking one is

"FIFA 12 limited edition+ 2100 Microsoft Points - £46 @ HMV (Instore)"

Few other deals

Asda doing the limited edition Fifa for £34.99

Trade-in F1 2011 & Get FIFA 12 (Xbox 360) (PS3) - £1.99 @ HMV (Instore)

FIFA 12 for £25 (When bought with 2100 Microsoft Points for £18.99) @ Morrisons (Instore)

Hello Folks,

I have only just got off the line with EA in terms of getting some response to you guys about your Early Access Emails!

I've been receiving quite a bit of emails/private messages in regarding this lately, and the best response we can give right now is as follows.

Electronic Arts will be sending emails out with redeemable codes inside them, you will then go to this site and redeem the code in order to get access to the Early Access promotion.

Electronic Arts have already started sending out those emails, however most of you will start receiving your emails by midnight tonight(09/26/2011) in order for you to have them in your inbox by tomorrow morning (Tuesday 09/27/2011).

What are the requirements in order to receive Early Access?

In order to qualify for Early Access you must have played Medal of Honor Tier 1 or Limited Edition online and redeemed your Online Pass, or you must have pre-ordered Battlefield 3 via Origin before the 25th of September.

When will I get my email?

Sometime between Midnight tonight(most likely PST timezone) to the early hours of Tuesday morning.

What is in this email?

Information on how to redeem your key, the redemption key, and also a link to the redemption website.

Which email is this being sent to?

The email will most likely be sent to your EA Master Account's email, if you have linked your gamer profiles to that email.

Misc..

Emails will be sent to individuals who participated in the Medal of Honor T1/Limited Edition (Xbox 360/PC) promotion with information on how to redeem.

Emails will also be sent to the Origin BF3 Preorder users via their email, with information regarding that.

You will also receive a email if you purchased Medal of Honor via Steam prior to the 25th of July. Your key will be within your Steam Library -- right click Medal of Honor and then click "CD Keys" your code will be listed within that.

Currently I have no details as to wether Playstation 3 users will receive a email, you should see Battlefield 3 automatically popup within the PSN Network by tomorrow! (If you qualified, by the above).

I can't get to grips with this FIFA, I've been playing them since 08, but this new defending has sapped all the fun out of it for me.

I appreciate why its considered more realistic, but ultimately less fun for me. I don't like spending ages trying to gett he ball back while the cpu effortlessly glides through my team with ease.

on fifa 11 I played on legendary and won more often than not. I find majority of my games on the demo are boring 0-0s going to penalties. Just not fun anymore, gonna give PES a chance to redeem itself this year!

You can change the controls back to the old ones from the settings. Will only work for offline though.
