So yesterday i went round to a friends house to get a few beers and a shot of his PS4 and FIFA 14 in particular.

Now EA were the first people to bring out the shitty and rip off "online pass" thing with games a couple of years ago or so, and now it seems they have taken it a step further.

They now don't allow players to "guest" a game, which means 2 people in the same room can't play co-op games etc, and instead would have to be in separate houses with their own game and console, just to play in the same team against someone else online. Which for me was the best and most fun part about the game. So with the two of us sitting there, we couldn't play co-op because, well EA don't want us to.

All that stuff that X-Box One and Microsoft had to backtrack over before the console release because of the backlash, it seems EA are quietly doing all those things themselves anyway. While still racking in the sales.

There are some other idiotic changes they made to FIFA as well which just don't make any sense. When you do go online you don't even know which team the other player has went untill the game actually starts ?! Part of choosing your team is seeing who it looks like your opponent is going to go, and you try match it in relation to that. But not any more.

Thanks EA...
