GamesHQMedia has posted almost 30 minutes of current-gen FIFA 14 gameplay footage. Check it out and let us know what you think.

I'm not expecting anything revolutionary in FIFA 14 for current gen. But I didn't see anything in these videos that justifies $59.99 outside of updated rosters and maybe the crowd not being 2d cardboard cutouts.

I think I'm going to stick with FIFA 13.

Sidenote: the EA announcer guy is super annoying.

About the only thing that differentiates FIFA 14 CG from NG, is the lighting in the NG version is better. Other than that the two games pretty much look identical. It makes me happy to think I don't need to invest in a PS4 or Xbox One in order to play FIFA 14 NG; I can just buy the PC version and then fiddle a bit with the brightness and contrast settings.

I've read two hands-on previews where both reviewers commented on the improved player momentum. One reviewer said it made the game almost too sluggish, the other said it improved the game so much that he couldn't go back to FIFA 13. Just something to consider as we wait for the demo.

I'm expecting business as usual in terms of gameplay for the CG version, which is actually fine with me now. Within a few months of it's release the modding community will likely have come up with a few patches and mods to improve the gameplay. What I am looking forward to is the new leagues, in particular the 5th English tier and hopefully 3rd tiers in other leagues (fingers crossed). I just can't play CM in a league with less than 3 tiers so I'm always going BPL.

If you could sum up online FIFA in two quotes:

"Oh, you're both gonna choose Barcelona?"

"What's your tactics for this match?" "I don't have any".

Are there really two more English tiers added? That would pretty much seal the deal for me if true. Had not heard about this.

But doesn't that apply to any online game and to online gaming in general? I don't play online myself but I understand it's a madhouse... a MAAAADHOUSE!
