SI Games "Keeping An Eye" On Micro Transactions Trends


Sports Interactive has revealed it is looking at the growing trend of micro transactions for MMO's however at the current time the developer hasn't thought about adding them to Football Manager Live (FML) yet.

"I wouldn’t say we’ve thought about it too much for FML but that is not to say we’re not keeping an eye on this and the social networking sphere," SI's Marc Duffy after being asked about the possibility of adding a FML store in an upcoming interview with IncGamers. 

Duffy added, "Micro transactions seem to be an avenue that more and more Western publishers and developers are exploring so it will remain something we monitor."

The full interview will with Marc Duffy about the reboot of Football Manager Live, the upcoming 3D match engine patch and the future of the title will be available later this week. We have already revealed SI are considering adding staff to the MMO Football Manager title.
