EA have released a video touting their long line of next generation games that will soon be released on the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. Every title for the upcoming releases utilizes the two newest signature EA engineers, IGNITE, and Frostbite 3, which reportedly offer an unparalleled gaming experience.

This trailer really speaks for itself. It’s one big EA brag-fest. But I’ll be damned if they don’t know how to make a good looking game. Every second of this trailer is jam packed with some of the most realistic looking cinematic and gameplay footage I’ve had the pleasure of seeing in my 18 odd years as a decimated gamer.

The full list of games we get a peek at in this video are as follows: Battlefield 4, FIFA 14, Madden NFL 25, NBA Live 14, and Need for Speed: Rivals. Each title for both the PS4 and the Xbox 360 utilize either the IGNITE engine or the Frostbite 3 engine.

UFC Makes Full Use of PS4, Dev Defends Against Claims That PS4/Xbox One Will Be Obsolete In Few Years

EA Sports UFC, the latest in the company’s UFC series of video games, will release on the PS4 and Xbox One. It will utilize EA’s next-gen exclusive Ignite Engine but will it take full advantage of the hardware it’s arriving for, particularly the PS4? EA Canada creative director Brian Hayes says so.

Since it’s not a launch title, EA Canada has plenty of time to optimize code and performance for UFC. When we asked if the PS4 version would use the extra GDDR5 memory that the console offers, Hayes replied that, “We are making the fullest use of the PS4 hardware we can, but there are no specific additional features that we are implementing because of the GDDR5 memory.”

When talk shifted to claims of the PS4 and Xbox One becoming obsolete in the next few years when compared to a high end PC, Hayes stated that, “All I can say is, I know there are plenty of PCs out there that are more powerful than my Xbox 360 or PS3, but neither of those consoles are obsolete to me. High end PCs are always going to be around and pushing technical boundaries. I have a feeling that when this new console generation is winding down it will have its version of ‘GTAV’ or ‘The Last Of Us’ that still manages to blow everybody’s minds, despite the fact that there are more powerful machines out there.”

EA Sports UFC releases on May 5th 2014, exclusively on next gen platforms.

Despite the fact that there will most assuredly be another FIFA next year, FIFA 14 producer Nick Channon has asserted that the next-gen version of this year’s iteration is the best game the development studio could have ever made.

Speaking to MCV, Channon revealed that, “The philosophy for us over the last five or six years has been how do we make significant innovation each year in gameplay?

“How do we make the game more authentic and more fun at the same time? We need to get the balance right between authenticity and fun – we are making a video game at the end of the day. What we have right now with FIFA 14 is a great base, a fantastic game and moving forward it is a huge opportunity.

“When you are working with new technology you learn more about it as you go – you have more power, more memory and these are the things you can play with. It’s about maintaining that philosophy of deep innovation in gameplay. For me the opportunities are huge. It’s really exciting.”

FIFA 14 on the Xbox One and PS4 will be utilizing the new Ignite Engine, which will reportedly incorporate more human-like intelligence, more realistic collisions and visuals, individual crowd behaviours and much more.

“This is the best FIFA we have ever made. We wanted to make a next-gen game that is fully featured, which has not always been the case, and that has significant innovation in gameplay and presentation. The feeling when you play the game is entirely new. We’ve been very fortunate in our success with FIFA and we are translating that to a new platform.”

FIFA 14 launches for PlayStation 4 November 15th in North America and November 29th in Europe, while the Xbox One version launches on November 22nd.
