FIFA got the most praise of that bunch but Madden fell flat and NBA Live was a dumpster fire they are still trying to put out and fix. UFC is their last game of that initial bunch and if it doesn't perform well then they will need to seriously refocus on what they want to do for their next gen games. So far the only footage we have seen from UFC was a CGI trailer and screenshots and we all know how well that turned out for NBA Live.

What's the expected price of the game gonna be? And how will the release of this game impact the price of fifa14?

I'm gonna get a soccer game in a few months so I want to know if I should get this one, or hold off on getting fifa 14 until after this is released.

This is pretty sad. A game like World Cup on Next-Gen would have been sick. Hell, I'm sure it would have been a system-seller for quite a few people if it was enough of an upgrade.

I can see where they're coming from, though. The new consoles just released internationally for the most part. And I wouldn't doubt that their biggest market is still the Current-Gen audience, but that didn't stop them with FIFA, Madden, NBA Live, and UFC.

Bunch of moron executives at EA.

EA can seriously suck my balls. I got rid of my 360 FIFA in favor of the next gen just to get ****ed out of something I really wanted. Thanks EA for helping the "majority" of the people.

As a PC gamer, I cannot express the disappointment I feel at not being able to open my wallet and fork over the dough for EA's latest cash grab game that undoubtedly looks and plays exactly like FIFA 14.

In the end this all comes down to sales, and most likely in the past they've found that the majority of their World Cup games were sold in the host country( I do not have numbers to back that up), and with NG all but nonexistent in Brazil.........
For me, I'm disappointed, and I absolutely will not buy it even though I do still have a 360. Going backwards is not something I'm at all interested in, because no matter how much they improve it, it still will not be on the level of FIFA 14 NG. I guess time will tell if it was a good decision for them, it sure wasn't for us.
