NEW! EA Sports Launches Patriotic World Cup Campaign

eaCoinciding with the World Cup, EA SPORTS launched a 75-second online video to promote its EA SPORTS 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil game. The patriotic video is set to the tune "I am a real American," a song that takes any wrestling fan down memory lane, reminiscing about Hulk Hogan wrestling for the WWE back when it was known as the WWF. Moving past the wrestling memories, the video features a team of soccer heroes made from various slices of Americana, including a cowboy, fireman, cheerleader, football player, astronaut, construction worker, fast-food waitress and a tech guy, serving as goalie and wearing a pair of Google Glasses. This motley crew is the clear underdog yet they pull off a win, thanks to the support from fans in the stadium. Gamers looking to be "the next American hero" can start by playing EA SPORTS 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil. "The fate of the nation is in your hands," says the voiceover. No pressure.
