One year, you have a company talking about how the new next-gen systems allow them to concentrate on making the stadiums and players look great "with more polygons than ever", without sacrificing gameplay.

The following year, they are claiming it is necessary to drop the detail in order for the game to run at a smooth framerate and thus improve the gameplay.

I'm sorry guys, call me a ***** or whatever else, but this is a pile of crap.

Either the development team is understaffed or incompetent.
