Real Madrid - Image 1Virgin Play steps up to the competition of football games by inking a licensing deal with world famous Spanish champions, Real Madrid.

Having been involved in other European games before, Virgin Play aims to widen its market worldwide. During the five year contract with Real Madrid, Real Madrid: The Official Videogame is expected to reach all major consoles (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii), handhelds (PSP, DS) and the PC.

Announcement of the game will be made later in the year, directly from the Spanish champions themselves. Success of this game will mean a lot to the growing publication company, but fighting head-on with FIFA and Winning Eleven will prove to be quite a challenge. Time will tell if this license deal would gain some goals, or if other franchise giants will be impregnable walls.

» real madrid has some talent

Good team. But the only reason they won is because Eto'o and Messi were both (Barcelona) out for so much season play. That and half of Real Madrid's team are a bunch of divers.
