It is June 2010 and it is World Cup time. Football fever is at an all time high and everyone seems to be interested in joining the party. And while not everyone is lucky enough to be there in South Africa to catch the event Live, football fans all over the world are doing all they can to soak in the mood and celebrate the spirit of football.

While we are at it, enjoying the football frenzy that is, EA Sports has announced the launch of FIFA on Facebook - called the FIFA Superstars.

About FIFA Superstars

FIFA Superstars is free to play online but buying players for each team will cost around £1-£2 per pack. You’ll obviously be able to compete against your friends and the players they have bought. The more you play, the more each player earns in points and the more team members can be bought.

Game-play

Although it is a good way to keep up the footballing spirits in you, unfortunately it isn't the same FIFA we all are used to playing. With FIFA Superstars, you are only a manager of virtual teams of real players but there is reportedly strategy involved. The game lets players train and manage teams and build stadiums. Using EA’s licence from Fifa, football’s governing body, footballers can be bought and sold and players can choose to challenge friends or take on teams from the World Cup or the UK’s Premier League.

The game is created by social games developer Playfish which was acquired by EA last year.
