Not rumour is been confirmed, games are tied to your gamer tag so even if you had one xbox in your house and 4 people used it they would have to use the same gamer tag or pay a fee to install it on their gamer tag

Was a rumour earlier.

Also appears that whilst not 'always on' new Xbox will require connection to the internet once every 24 hours otherwise it won't work.

Guess it's a PS4 then, for me.

It's an absolute train wreck. Some quotes:

Microsoft: "We purposefully did not target the highest end graphics. We targeted it more as a broad entertainment play."

"The bits that are on that disc, you can give it to your friend and they can install it on an Xbox One," he said. "They would then have to purchase the right to play that game through Xbox Live."

"They would be paying the same price we paid, or less?" we asked.

"Let’s assume it’s a new game, so the answer is yes, it will be the same price," Harrison said.

"Kinect does require to be connected to Xbox One in all cases, yes," he said. Asked whether the Xbox One will accommodate people who perhaps play in their bedroom rather than their living room, Eagle replied: "Yes, absolutely. We use the living room almost as a moniker - that's where we assume the best screen is in the house. But if you like to play in any other room in the house, the Xbox One will deliver the same quality of experience whatever the environment."

Shambles.

Sony shares up nearly 10% on the announcement.

Wow, that's seriously shitty. I hope Sony don't follow suit and do the same.

Isn't that how it always is? Iirc only since FIFA 12 or 13 wasn't it they actually used the PS3/360 engine? Before it was just a port of the PS2 version

Confirmed that it's being released on September 26 out here in Australia.

Not sure I'll pre-order or by it then because Xbox 360 games won't be playable on Xbox One and apparently that's coming out by the end of this year. Don't want to get caught out and have to buy FIFA 14 twice.

Camp Nou will also make its return to FIFA 14. There will be new leagues as well, from what I've heard they are gonna add the Chilean and Colombian.

Pointless, the cards won't be worth much at all, you can only use them for certain games. I build a team, i play with friends. These cards have no use to me, i'd say thats the same for a whole lot of people too.

Ignoring Messi and Ronaldo, Ribery was probably the best player in Europe last season.

Also only just realised that as well as the Brazilian top division, it'll also have Chile and Argentina.

Plus Le Bonbonera is added to the stadiums.

Iniesta is easily one of the best of his generation, mentionable in the same breath as Zidane and Laudrup and probably would be remembered as one of the best to have played the game full stop if he hadn't played at the same time as Ronaldo and Messi.

Ribery is none of those things.

Sure, but the ratings aren't based on how good a player has been or what sort of legacy they will have - it's based on how good they are now. I'm not saying Iniesta isn't an incredible player because he is, but I think given how good Ribery was in 2012/13 it is perfectly plausible for him to be the third-highest rated player in the game.

Gah.

Ribery was absolutely incredible last season. Wouldn't surprise me if he outperformed Ronaldo/Messi last season. Nevermind Iniesta.

He was the best player in arguably the greatest team ever.
