Well I own an Xbox and I love it but the two systems are pretty much the same with the ps4 offering more horsepower. With that being said it's a sports game which will look the same on both consoles anyways.

I guess be carful what you ask for if this is a leak of footage I don't know. But just brutal thank goodness the demo is only a couple weeks away

I can't understand why players always have two hands on their stick when they have the puck. You'd think EA would have fixed this in next gen. Guess not!

The interview with Ram was specifically in a Microsoft-sponsored video. (Official Xbox Magazine? I can't remember.) I wouldn't worry that the PS4 version is "inferior."

For what it's worth, the Madden livestreams seem to alternate consoles. That indicates a lack of preference from that team.

It's hard to judge. Clearly the two people playing have no idea what they're doing, and it's only a very, very minimal amount of footage.

I'm looking forward to this game. Overall the presentation such as the opening looks great. The game play seems a little "floaty" to me. I was hoping they could reach the level or realism that MLB 14 The Show has but that may have been asking too much - that MLB game looks insanely real to me.

what a letdown. So much emphasis on presentation but completely disregarded the gameplay between the boards. They still skate awful and those passes looked so slow. Finally, player models. That did NOT look like Moen and again, NHL makes these players look like they're wearing XXXL size jerseys...
