For a long while I thought FIFA wasn't a 'big' game at all, not worth my time. Turns out I was pretty wrong. If not already, FIFA is close to a billion dollar per year franchise. "For this first game EA had to go without [licensing]. And so the dev team decided to put themselves in the game. Matt Webster went upfront for England. Joey Della-Savia was in the Italian squad. Assistant producer Marc Aubanel became a striker for French team." Humble beginnings, indeed.
