    This will be good news for some. This will also bring about lofty expectations.

    I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

    I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

      Yes . I cant help but hope this means an increase in roster size , if not for 17 then definitely 18 .

        Hoping that means substantial improvements for 17, both performance and otherwise.

        The franchise needs a big leap forward at this point.

            They still have to do two versions, haha.

            The PS2 version lasted a few years longer after PS3's release. 5 years for the PS2 version and 3 years for the PS3 version.

              True they have to work on both the PS4 and Pro versions now. But unlike the PS3, the Pro is basically the same machine with more horsepower, where the PS3 is a completely different system, and a difficult system to develop for at that.

                OMFG thank you.

                Hell you guys can thank yourselves for not having to develop for that garbage anymore.

                  I don't think it needs to make a BIIIIIGGGGGG leap forward for 17. But for what is there it needs to be polished and we need the graphics to be up to par.

                  I hope they got the go ahead to cancel the PS3 version early because that would mean they had time to code a decent amount. Anyway, they have time now to get the PS4 systems up to par.

                  They are a very capable dev. But no question the PS3 version was holding this game back.

                    The PS3 version as your bottom line template was the worst thing that could ever affect this franchise in the long term. For so many reasons. It's really great news that no deadlines or anything needs to be done with it anymore.

                    I'm sure the team was super relieved about this as well.

                        Good news for most of us, but bad news for PS3 only folks.

                        I would like to see them reinvest any manpower that would've been used on the PS3 version into developing a create-a-team/stadium feature for an eventual expansion mode in '18 or '19.

                          You know they didn't want to update the stadiums in PS3. Heat is on now to deliver more on PS4 and now there's one less excuse.

                            This thread is going to get comical real fast...........


                            Like WTNY said good news for us PS4 guys. Sucks for those on the PS3 side, but this was going to happen sooner rather than later.

                              I don't think the thread is going to get comical. This needed to happen. And this is the best time to do it. Sony is no longer selling PS3's like they care about it. They don't really care at this point. Their fundamental business model is now almost totally PS4, Pro, and VR.
