Interview – FIFA 11′s David Rutter has the final word
The latest iteration of FIFA, EA’s biggest-selling videogame, launches this week, and dev lead David Rutter believes that, yet again, his team is about to win.
FIFA 10 was approaching 10 million sales at the last official count, and a host of streamlining additions, radical feature changes and the inclusion of goalkeeper play for the first time in the series’s history means that FIFA 11 will be “by far the better game” when compared to PES 11, according to Rutter.
The developer spoke to us on the phone from Vancouver to outline the reasoning behind this year’s FIFA version, defend Online Pass, admit he has no idea what’s going to make it into FIFA 12, and much more.
