FIFA 09's Ultimate Team Gets the Deal of the Week Treatment

FIFA 09's Ultimate Team Gets the Deal of the Week Treatment
Written Monday, August 10, 2009 by Dan Webb

I have a feeling that this week's Deal of the Week may be more popular amongst the Europeans of the world than it would be amongst the Americans. I'm not sure what makes me say that ... maybe it has something to do with the fact that it involves the world's biggest football title - FIFA 09.

That's right, this week's Deal of the Week is FIFA 09's Ultimate Team which will now cost gold members a paltry 400 Microsoft Points, instead of the usual 800. A saving of 50%.

In order to make your purchase; simple download your relevant language pack, play 5 games and then purchase the add on after that. All the links you'll ever need for this deal are below.

FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - English
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - French
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - German
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - Spanish
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - Italian
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - Japanese
FIFA 09 Ultimate Team - Korean

wow well done... bring ultimate team out half price when pretty much any one who wanted it has it and the end of the fifa 09 era is all but a month finished... not going to be many people downloading this but for the ones who are thinking about it... remember how close fifa 10 is but ultimate team is definatley worth 400 mp

Ultimate team isn't that great to be fair and I regret buying it. + #3 has a point because fifa 10 is out october 2nd or something like that

Wish this was when I go on holiday for 2 weeks. Hopefully 1 crappy deal of the week then since I will miss one. I don't like these games anyway so pass.

Xbox Live needs to stop with these "deals." This might have been welcome a few months ago, but now it is pointless. Can we please have one solid deal for a recent pack in a good game?

i think a good deal of the week would be if they halfed the price of every dlc available

I've had the Ultimate Team pack for a good few months now and with Fifa 10 just around the corner i cant see too many people buying it. However it is a brilliant addition to Fifa 09 and at 400 points its a bargain. Might just tide a few people over till FIFa 10.

Contrary to #14, "soccer" is liked by many Americans as Ultimate Team was alot of fun..but Fifa 10 is so close why bother.

fifa ut is crap as every1 is rated overall 99 so all newcomers will get smashed unless they purchase gold packs and that will cost more and more eventually u get bored after 100 games as i did, waste of money also anyone need any spanish players message me or if they need coins or whatever in ut message me

@17, Just not as much as the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, NASCAR, NCAA Football, NCAA Basketball, or a few other sports.

@15 it's free in Finland, i though it was a joke, but so you can donwload 5 and then you need to pay? but can you get achs. with those free things? (i don't have but my cousin has this)

You get to play 5 games as a trial for free and can't get any of the achievements in those (not enough games to do so). After that you have to pay to continue playing unless something has changed.

Still, I for one really enjoyed this mode so if anyone is undecided I'd say go for it. Should get a lot more life out of Fifa 09, certainly enough to keep you going anew until 10.

more popular with the Europeans??? I'm assuming you didn't watch any of the summer friendlies that have been going on in the States have you? about 70,000 plus each match here in the States, yes it was MLS teams against Barcelona, Real Madrid, AC/Inter Milan.

People here love soccer, they just want quality.

Just downloading this from UK too - appears to be free, doesn't mention it is a trial. Shame all the commentaries are free as well EXCEPT for English. Would be nice for that to be free.

They had this half price on PS3 three weeks ago so it was just a matter of time before deal was on 360 aswell.

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
