EA is just a ****ty corporation. Back when i was an avid gamer, i promised to never buy one of their games. But to elaborate:
- FIFA and Madden have been carrying the sports division with enormous profits but since awhile they are pretty much the same game, with better graphics and marginal improvements every year. When they had competition from 2k and Konami, they were actually better games.
- Micro-transactions that now are abundant were propelled thanks to EA. Now most their sports game comes with "Ultimate teams" modes which are just pay-to-win crap.
- creating a whole new-****ty plataform so they didn't had to pay anything to Steam
- Games with always online settings. If you don't have internet, sorry, can't play the game that you bought, even if it doesn't need internet at all
- EA buys good company and turn them into game pumping factories, focusing on nothing but the bottom line: BioWare was an incredible developer before being bought by EA, for example. Many other developers have been sucked into EA's Blackhole (Criterion, Dice, ....)

They've been under scrutiny for awhile because of its decisions and it's clear that it values money over quality, ignoring its workers and costumers. Sound familiar?
The only question now is...
...should I buy a PS4 or Xbox one?
Why not both? If that's not an option get a PS4- for the Naughty Dog exclusives. The Last of Us is one of the best video games ever made. And the sequel will be coming out soon. Only on PS4. As far as I can tell they have the better exclusives.
Superstition is for fools. As for Madden, the facts speak for themselves. They were being so thoroughly dominated by 2k that they chose to pay off the NFL to make 2k go away rather than step up their game and compete. Pathetic cowards. Haven't bought their trash since, nor will I. I would be willing to bet they tried the same thing with the NBA. No idea if the did or not. What I do know is that the NFL is the only one of the two leagues that sold it's fans out. Stop supporting this.

Damn, I have to respect a man that buys the game for the cover and never has even plugged it into a console.
The trailer is sick too...
