Fifa 12 - Scholesy is back

Scholesy is back,

Scholesy is back,
Woah, woah,

Scholesy is back,
Scholesy is back,
Woah, woah...

That's right EA Sports have confirmed that the former England midfielder will be added to the game’s roster when gamers download the latest FIFA 12 squad update.

@EASPORTSFIFA is the official Twitter page of the FIFA series, where they share all the updates of the game and answer fans questions. A number of competitions are also held and every now and then exclusive content is dropped such as the announcement of FIFA Street.

This time around EASPORTSFIFA made an ‘indirect’ announcement, one that will light up the hearts of Manchester United fans all over the world. The page retweeted @RomilyBroad’s tweet which read:

“Confirmed: Paul Scholes will return to Man Utd (Manchester United) in the 23 Feb roster update.” However, there was a catch as it continued, “Not for FUT (FIFA Ultimate Team) tho (though) unfortunately. Different database.”

So the fact of the matter is that this news is legit. However, it does raise a number of questions as to whether Paul Scholes will be given the same attention of graphical detail as was given to the other superstars in the game, or whether he will just be another standard modeled player.

Chances are that with the size of United’s fan base, EA will be putting a fair amount of effort into recreating Scholes for the latest iteration of FIFA 12.
