The game was clearly developed for XBone and then very poorly ported. I'm sure the fact there's an exclusive XBone bundle has nothing to do with it *wink wink nudge nudge*

Even still, there's no denying this was intentional.


Considering that MS and the NFL are now money buddies, I wouldn't doubt it a bit.

Did I just read,"they paid for extra polish"?  What in the actual fu*k?  That's unbelievable. That statement burrowed its way into my brain and sat there for a second like a time bomb and then just blew up. Microsoft exec guy: "hey there EA, how are you guys today?  Hey let me ask you guys somethin. If I give you guys 10 gold bars, will you guys put a little extra polish on that there Madden football game?"  Ummmmmmmm..........No

Are you involved in the gaming industry. No, you just read reviews, news articles and so on on the web. These type of things happen its known as bribing.

I can't beleive that you actually think that has happened here, so many better places the money could go than denying PS4 gamers some lens flare...


But why, why, why? Why would they make a worse version on ps4 when it is better.

 

See the post above me for further info.

Because each console is slightly different, potentially requiring slightly different coding. Add in the fact that different teams might work on different ports and not every team is going to be 100% perfect, theres a high chacne that some might miss some tiny line of code in the rush to get an annual game out on time. Also because it's possible that yes the XB1 is the lead console, and the port might have needed to be slightly rushed for release.

So a X1 lead development = a downgraded PS4 version, actually that kinda makes sense! Bit like putting low octane fuel in car that runs best on a high grade, it goes but the performance takes a bit of a hit.

 All of the PS3's development kinks were ironed out by 2010. The 360 was still the lead platform for a lot of games though. Stronger platform =/= lead platform. The Xbox One appears to be the lead platform for this game. It was probably EA Tiburon's decision. Money was not involved in this. 

Yes, the ps3 was stronger than the Xbox 360. But first off all it was harder to develop for the ps3 and secondly why would a company change the lead platform half way through.

 

PS: Why do all other EA games look better on the ps4?

Who changed the lead platform halfway through? 

EA's other games look better on the PS4 because they were developed on the PS4 first. This one was developed on the Xbox One first. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

It will probably change with 2016 versions of there games as EA moves to making the PS4 the lead console .

Exactly why did they use the Xbox one as a lead platform this time around? $$$$$ is why.

so a color-contrast difference, non-recreatable frame-rate drops, and a sunset bug that will be fixed in a patch?

LMAO

It's kinda sad that after 8 years people still fall for color contrast comparisons. Since the xbox 360 MS has artificially boosted the contrast with a gamma downshift. Calibrate your TV for XBox 360 / XBox One and other devices will look too bright and a little washed out. Calibrate your TV for ps3/ps4, cable box, blu-ray player, etc and 360 / XBox One games will look too dark with black crush and over saturation in parts.
