Re: FIFA 14 Video - Elite Technique and In-Air Gameplay (Next-Gen)

After playing the demo at the Sony Outlet, I'm getting FIFA 14 on PS4 week one. Yes, it's not dramatically different, and there's still a few gripes I have, especially with the caveman-like generic faces still there for certain players, but the next-gen game IMO was a nice breath of fresh air for a series slowly growing musty.

The contextual animations and real-time presentation are enough to bring this on-again, off-again FIFA player on board. Time will tell if it's as big an improvement in the long run as it was at first glance.

Like NBA 2K, I'm willing to give a similar-feeling core gameplay engine a thumbs up if most of my personal gripes are ironed out. From what I saw in my brief playthrough, which appeared to be a build from before the Eurogamer expo, there's enough there for me to give it a shot.

Isn't it a little strange that FIFA's the only EA Sports next-gen title to date that's produced more than 15-30 seconds of raw gameplay footage?
