Despite Frostbite, I'm sure FIFA will still pretty much be FIFA, but there's no denying how good it looks. I'm happy EA made the investment to bring the game into current gen.

So does this mean PES is becoming a credible threat again and EA feels the need to ice out the competition by buying exclusive club rights. How about they invest in just making the most badass footy game on the planet. I though last years would be good and then they decided to tune the game so it felt almost the same as the previous installments aka arcady rather than sim. I will prob go with PES this year.

Exciting stuff eitherway. I could care less about the politics, just hope the game plays great. Nothing wrong with playing, and loving, both PES and FIFA.

Because EA likes to compete with licensing, not gameplay, as history has shown us.

Let's not turn this into a bash EA session, please.

So Paul Pogba got lighter?

Wow. That's the team I typically run with and I preferred PES last year. Gameplay will be the deciding factor for me this go round.

Wouldn't it be better if they did this for the entire league, and not just one team? I don't get why we should be excited about this for a single team.

Pogba still looks like crap in FIFA... SMH
