I hated the 15 demo this year. This is the first year where the demo changed my mind from pre-ordering to not buying.

I waited to read player opinions and of course the review here before buying today. There's always differences between demos and the final game, but this year is a huge difference. In the demo the difficulties were just all over the place (I got ripped in pro on the demo with a superior team).

People really need to ignore this year's demo. I won't rehash all the demo issues, other than to say the final game is much more refined.

Sigh. The review glosses over lot of pretty big problems introduced this year. The removal of anti-aliasing on next-gen, the over-emphasis on attacking over defending and the wonky keeper AI (super-keepers from mid-range but yet brain-dead zombies with one-on-ones) just to name a few. If these things can be fixed/adjusted in future patches it could very well be a"9" title, but given the current state I think the community consensus is something much lower, at least when compared to FIFA 14 NG. Don't get me wrong - it does do a lot right, like toning down lofted through balls and fixing CPU fouling, but the niggling problems are things that should be easy enough to fix if EA is held accountable...

ISS/Winning Eleven 2002 ps1, Winning Eleven 6 Final Evolution ps2, Fifa 10 / WC 2010 ps3/xbox360. THe games that were real revolution considering football simulatons. Everything else is pretty much not worth mentioning at all (PES 6 and Fifa 12 are ridiculously overrated).

Since EA left behind fantastic NG engine which had amazing animations and great ball control physics with real 360 movement and invented "impact" engine which they now are trying to convert to "ignite", FIFA lost it's connection with real football. Imact/ignite engine fails to bring that natural feel like it is actually a game of football although they are really trying,,, This year the ball physics for shooting is amazing, but when u look at ball control and passing, the old impact engine problems are still there... Passing and runing animations are just not natural and it is a game killer for every real football fan.

Konami on the other side, since ps1 and ps2 games mentioned at the begining of my post, didn't do anything good. PES 6 and everything else Konami did after that was simply ********, i cannot describe how awful physycis and animations were, that basic feel of football was simply not existing in their games. Fox enigne last year changed that, but PES 14 was not finished, it was full of bugs and ******** AI, the game was unplayable. PES 15 is finished and playable PES 14, but there is only slight improvement of animations and shooting ball physics, and I expected they will finally make a hard effort about their game and complete one. I guess that may happen in 5 years, maybe... But Fox engine has the potential, noone can doubt that.

So in year 2014-2015, we still can't get a football game which has real life animations and physics? WTF?

Football/soccer is not like american football (which I am a big big fan) or hockey, you cannot have the same aproach to this simulation because there is much more finesse things you have to worry about and deliver it the right way... This is what I'm talking about, this is real football: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--ACUzCCza8

I like Match Day and the ability to play along with the season. This has become my favorite game mode in NBA 2K & MLB the show. EA needs to get it together and add this mode to Madden 16 and NHL 16 as well.
