NHL14 - Next-Gen

[Schmackity]

Well it's official that NHL franchise won't instantly be launched on next-gen. The games that will be upon their release dates unique to each franchise, Fifa, Madden, UFC and NBA. This is according to EA Sports themselves at the XBOX ONE Reveal.

It also hurts that the XBOX ONE will NOT be backwards compatible.

So us die hard NHL fans will have to hold onto the 360 for a while before you'd even see NHL 14 get ported over (Which obviously wouldn't have any direct level of enhancement for the next-gen. Just the same game graphically and engine wise as XBOX360 version)

Did you just read what I put? It more than likely will be released at SOME point, probably more likely Q1-2 of 2014 but simply as just the same game as it is on 360. It's how many of the games upon the 360's release were. Not immediately released but just ported over eventually.

i guess this would look like 2K6 wherein they released it for 360 with not much of a difference. i dont know how much effort will EA put in NHL 14 knowing that there'll be a great difference between old consoles and the next gen.

Doesn't it just say, that it won't be a launch title, but they are willing to put it out the next year?
Or am I just terribly wrong?
