@Funky Town_TX you are CORRECT so I will change that. EA did not buy 2k games it was a rumor or failed and I got it mixed up.

This information is all over the net. I forget the site that had the whole interview but it is worse than this link. But even this one points out the point

Glad you would cancel it. People don't remember, but the President of xbox one division Phil Harrison said they will bring back the policies that they reversed. Yes they are coming back.

And he said they will do it after they have sold enough xbox ones. EA is doing it with this game because they know they have a sports monopoly. This is the test. If people put up with this ALL video games will end up like this!

EA is Microsoft 1a when it comes to DRM...

I'm surprised at the cold hearted responses I've been seeing on this site the last two days against victims. The bible does say people will be cold hearted in the last days!

Anyway even people that don't read the bible should have more morals than I see on N4g. We are trying to combat people saying playing games makes you cold hearted, and callous. We are not winning that argument with reactions like this. Scold and blame the victim.

Last time...

First of all, most parents get what their sons or daughters want. Otherwise they will get them socks! Some will go by price but not most. In fact most Parents always ask what do YOU want. (Unless the parent is a 'jerk'). I've heard parents ask what do you want every other time I go to a game store. Or say something like my son does not want that one, he wants a: insert answer( ps3/xbox360/wii u).

Plus it is not mostly parents buying a machine in its first y...

Perfect examples. I read where 90 percent of all people dont like the ribbon! So how did Microsoft not know that?

Who likes to hover over the bottom right part of the screen for the menu to show, then find settings, and THEN press power down just to power down in windows 8?

I guess it is not like they had competition that could force them to make the change. Unlike PS4/xbox which made Microsoft change their 'policies' they have a near monopoly on offic...

Yeah that is individual, if we change the case then we don't have to add a touch pad to the controller!

We will fix Sony for winning the HD-DVD/Blu-ray war. We will put the cd on the other side, wala, MIND FREAK!

I pity the fool that does not try to cancel so they can get a good deal! Unless they have left Microsoft for PS4 permantly.

Most people have uploaded photos, and have labeled them. The seller took advantage of this. He knew that someone will think it is just the name of the photo, and not realize he is buying a worthless photo.

Look at all the cold hearted comments! Are we really that callous? ALWAYS blaming the victim! It is okay, as long is it is not you huh? Last time I checked all the people on wall street that took money from the value of stocks that any American with a 401k had. Cou...

Boomer when I first looked at the title I kinda got dyslexic, and read it as -final fantasy 9- instead of 14. I took a second look, and the illusion disappeared, and I was still in the desert!

You know what Microsoft can't say? They can't say we also expect to sale 5 million consoles by the end of March! Why? Because like Sony they are a publicly traded company. And if they don't make the mark the stock will fall!

In fact if they say it, and all there research points to no. Then they are very liable for securities fraud. But more important is having their stock fall.

@UltimateMaster The whole premise of your argument is backwards. The whole reason they went to 64bit is to increase the amount of work that is done by each instruction cycle. For instance a single clock cycle on a 32bit system can address up to 3gig of memory. Where as 64 bit will allow you to address more memeory with the same instruction. Plus it increased the limit of how much memory could be addressed.

In other words your backwards saying you will decrease when you g...

Looks like, micro transactions are here do to Microsoft fanboys selling out by buying these games. And now Sony is feeling they need to do the same to keep their money chest as high.

This is partially gamers fault! Companies will do what you allow them to do. You have to be intelligent enough to figure out what if while selling out to these games.

It is up to us to take a stand. Here and now. Sony is coming out with a second racers that will be free....

Okay the last time I got Gran Turismo I did not get into it because I'm getting tired of having to race crappy cars to get a license to get to the real game. They should drop that.

Micoros transactions all have one thing in common. From facebook to consoles. They have spots that are hard to get past without spending! Well if they make the yugo racing harder than it is so I can make a micro transaction then I think they have ruined the game. Blank Microsoft for bring...

@pyramidshead Lets make a bet one who will win Japan. Obviously the Japanese are too intelligent to go for the machine that will take had the president promise to bring the ownership and other issues back after sales increase.

So tell you what I'm going to do. Lets make it a ratio of 10 to 1. So if Microsoft has a 1 to 9.9 lower ration you will. If Sony has a 10 (or higher) to 1 ratio I will. Deal?

@lifeisgamesok
Oh look Microsoft released better textures by using there tiles technique.....At 720P! LOL
Okay they saved some (slow) memory with the tiles technique. But they are still not about to do 60fps at 1080p.....whuh?

I would have to agree. This is not just some resolution upgrade. This is a major undertaking, glad to see it. This is also a sign that Square is planning on remaking FFVII.

It is a much more wanted game. So obviously they have thought through which one will they
make first.

Since FF VII is the end game, they cant start with that one. Maybe they will work their way backwards through the numbers FFX, FF IX, FFV III, then finaly FFV II.

@Husomc No disrespect but even if it took MORE work than last gen it would not explain why it cost MORE to buy a game that is already complete from USA to Europe! It's not like going from English to Chinese, or Arabic anyway!

It is already in the English character set, and it is not MORE expensive to translate than on xbox360 and PS3. The languages did not all the sudden get harder. It is taking advantage because you can.
