    Press Row Podcast - EA SPORTS 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil Developer One-on-One


    In the 76th episode of the Press Row Podcast, host Rich Grisham (@RichGrisham) has a one-on-one sit-down with FIFA World Cup Brazil creative director Matt Prior. The two discuss a number of topics surrounding the game as well as the tournament itself – how the team distinguishes World Cup from its annual counterpart, the approach the developers take to best represent the distinct atmosphere that a World Cup represents, the new and returning modes specific to a World Cup video game, the tough decision to eschew the PS4/Xbox One/PC, and much more. It’s a fun conversation that sheds light on how and why the FIFA team designed their World Cup game the way they did.

      His reasoning for not making this available on next gen is really puzzling. Way to take a huge step backwards EA.

          Thanks. Heard his reasoning and it doesn't make sense at akk.

            The reason is money. They didn't feel that the investment to make the game for next gen would pay off in sales. Of course they won't say this but that is the reason, it's always the reason EA does anything.

              Can't believe this isn't coming to Next-Gen Platforms and PC (especially).

              EA Sports doing what they do best: chasing short term profits, and thereby pissing off their fanbase more and more.

              Short term vision, long term punishment.
