GO AC Milan!
The
EA SPORTS Interactive Leagues enables you to represent your favorite
club online against your heated rivals throughout the real-life soccer
season. You play your games online against anyone in the world
according to the real-world schedule. When they play, you play – and
worldwide bragging rights are up for grabs. Track your team’s progress
as the aggregate results determine your club’s position in the league
table. You actually take to the pitch for the glory of your club.
In
addition to the leagues announced today, the online Interactive Leagues
also includes the Barclays Premier League, Bundesliga, French League,
and the Mexican 1st Division. As you join a club, you join a community – play together for the common goal of victory.
GO ManU!
Interact
with thousands of other fans on a global scale through EA SPORTS
Interactive Leagues and share the highs and lows that come standard
with wearing the love for your club on your sleeve. Every game day
you’re matched up with a supporter of your opposing team. Play as many
times as you want online during the four day game window. Games start
two days before the real-world game and end two days afterwards. All
the winners are added up and three points is awarded to the victorious
club. If your club wins in real life, it's your job to make sure that
victory is matched online but if your club lost, you and other
supporters can try to re-write the result.
Choose
one club per league to represent online – support the team whose colors
you bleed as well as teams in the other leagues. If you pick a
less-supported club, you will have more opponents to match up against
and more opportunities to play. Track your team's progress as the
results determine your club's position in the league table. Here’s your
chance to show your support for your club online, and prove which team
belongs at the top of the leader board. Play all season long to uphold
the glory of your club and top the table!
FIFA Soccer 08 is rated "E" (Everyone) by the ESRB and 3+ by PEGI.
