Who is the Face of FIFA 14 for the UK?

Ok who did join Messi on the FIFA 14 UK cover? The answer is GARETH BALE  for the new football superstar when the UK cover was revealed today Monday (15 July at 5pm UK time).

Fifa 14 Final Cover UK

GARETH BALE Interview : FIFA 14 Cover Reveal

Gareth do you play FIFA? 

Yeah I play a lot with my friends from home and we have big tournaments when they come to my house and I also play online. So yes, I play a lot.

Do you play as yourself on the game? Are you happy with your stats?

I’ve played as myself a few times, the stats are good – but obviously everyone wants them to be a bit better. But it’s a great game, I enjoy playing it.

What’s it like now to be on the cover of a game that you have played since you were a kid?

To be on the front cover of a game is obviously a massive honour, particularly when you look at the people who have been on there. The players that have been on the front cover since I was a kid have obviously been legends of the game and true professionals. It’s a great honour for me and I’m very proud of it.

How did you enjoy your time at Southampton and how important was it for your development?

My time at Southampton was amazing, it’s been a big part of what has made me the footballer I am today. We had a great coaching staff, a great team and a great set-up. It was massive in my development and I think it has shown in recent years with the amount of players that Southampton have produced and who have gone onto bigger things. It’s a great club and I hope that they can keep producing the players.

Who was your football hero when growing up?

Growing up my hero was Ryan Giggs. He’s from Wales, left footed and played left wing – the same as me. It was an obvious choice, and watching him play over the years, he’s an unbelievable player and a true legend of football.

Who would you say has had the biggest influence on your career?

I would probably say it’s my Dad. Since I was 3 I have dragged him out into the park to practice and he used to take me from Southampton to Cardiff twice a week. With training and a game at the weekend. He’s given up pretty much most of his life for me and has been a massive influence and still is to this day.

You were voted double footballer of the year can you still improve?

Of course I can definitely still improve. I want to get better every year, that’s the target for every player, we want to keep improving and keep getting better and the thing you have to do is to improve on last year and keep growing as a player. Plus as you get older the experience will help you as well.

You’re now being mentioned in the same breath as Messi and Ronaldo, do you look at those players and still try and learn from them?

I’m flattered, and definitely yes. I think you see the likes of Messi and Ronaldo, and what they’re doing week-in and week-out and they are on a different level to everyone else. What they are doing is very special and everybody looks at them playing to see what they can do and try to learn from them.

fifa14_ukpacktalentbale_wm

What’s the best thing about being Gareth Bale?

The best thing is being involved in FIFA 14, playing football in front of big crowds and doing what you love which is playing football. I feel privileged.

Was there any movement in particular, like your free kick, one of your shots or one of your signature moves, that you really enjoyed getting down? 
The things I liked to see most were the free kick technique I use, and the way I take penalties etc. It’s all interesting stuff, and to see it on the game makes it more realistic.

If you could emulate the movement of any player, past or present, who would it be? 
I’d probably say Ryan Giggs or Maradona. Someone who can weave through players with no effort at all.

When you play FIFA what celebration do you usually do in the game?

I try and do the heart, but I can’t always do it. If I can click the buttons quickly enough though I try and use it.

Could you tell us about the celebrations you captured today? 
I did my trademark celebration, the heart. We did a few shots of that and a couple of others which I’ve done during games last season. It’s great to see them back on the screen, and it will be brilliant to see them on the game.
Could you describe some of the other celebrations that were captured?

Mainly all the celebrations I did last season, such as jumping up and pumping my fist. Also running with my arms out like a plane.

Based on your experience today, how realistic do you think FIFA 14 will be next year?
I think FIFA 14 is going to be very authentic, I think it will have that ‘wow’ factor and will be more realistic than ever and I think that’s the main aim – to make it as realistic as possible. This year it’s improved again, and it will be a great game.

What do you think of your in-game likeness for 14 compared to last year?

Every year it’s improving, I think this year it’s unbelievable how realistic it is which is great to see, as everyone likes to see the game becoming more realistic and it’s certainly happening.
When you’re on the pitch, how do you anticipate what the defender is going to do?

The way I anticipate a defender reacting to what I’m going to do is by setting up a trick, dummying them going one way, and you go the other. I think they usually show me onto my right foot, so I know they’ll be on my left side, so I tend to cut inside and try and get a shot away or make some positive impact on the game.

Ultimate Warrior Coming Back for WWE 2k14

2K today announced the emphatic return of Ultimate Warrior to the ring – virtually – in WWE 2K14, the forthcoming instalment in the flagship WWE video game franchise.  Making his long-awaited arrival from Parts Unknown, the self-professed “Founding Father of Life Intensity” will be an exclusive playable character for those who pre-order the game at any participating retailer for the Xbox 360 and the PS3.

wwe2k_logo_v1
“Immortality is inspiration, pure and simple. An example to others that they, too, can do things larger than the life they are actually living, and Ultimate Warrior was the pure embodiment of this belief, in what has proven to be a very attention-getting and inspiring way,” said Warrior. “It was my good fortune to be his creator and performer, and I am humbled by all those fans who’ve not only kept his legacy alive, but deepened it over time. In WWE 2K14, Ultimate Warrior’s creed, ‘Always Believe,’ lives on.”

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX8jqD3YyJo?feature=player_detailpage%5D

Making his WWE debut in 1987, Ultimate Warrior garnered worldwide attention and became a pop-culture phenomenon for his iconic music and ring entrance, zealous personality, boundless energy and dominant in-ring prowess.  Though he faced many rivals throughout his career, including Honky Tonk Man, “Ravishing” Rick Rude, Sgt. Slaughter, “Macho Man” Randy Savage and Undertaker, perhaps his most celebrated match was against Hulk Hogan in “The Ultimate Challenge” at WrestleMania VI on 1st April , 1990.  Warrior defeated Hogan that day to unify the WWE Championship and Intercontinental Championship, becoming the first WWE Superstar ever to hold both titles simultaneously.

Pre-ordering WWE 2K14 is the only way we mere mortals will ever have a glimpse into the greatness that is Ultimate Warrior.”
