FIFA 20 is available on Sony and Microsoft's current consoles as well as the Nintendo Switch, but why isn't it available on PS3 and Xbox 360?

Because... It's a waste of resources that hardly make any revenue.

Kaedro1686d ago (Edited 1686d ago )

Basically this. So many things one could cover as a gaming journalist and they just have to ask the most dumb questions... By this logic, may as well ask: "Well, the PS2 is the best-selling console ever, so why have game developers stopped producing PS2 games??"

ZeekQuattro1688d ago

Maybe because those systems came out in 2005 and 2006 respectively and this is 2019. Lmao I think those systems got enough support at this point. That gen dragged on enough as it is.

I don't think it's even possible to pass licensing and compliance testing on the systems anymore.

ocelot071687d ago

You only have to look at the Switch version. It's classed as a legacy version. It is just FIFA 19 but with updated transfers,kits new music. Everything else is identical to 2019. The only reason it has a switch release is probably because the Switch is only 2 years old.

FIFA 18 and 19 on PS3 and 360 where just FIFA 17 under the legacy branding. So people simply stopped buying it for those systems. FIFA 19 only sold around 5K on PS3 and 6K on 360. Compare that to almost 10million on PS4 and a little under 3 million on XB1.

So that’s basically it for PS3 and Xbox 360 then? What would be the final game that is not digital for these consoles?

It looks like the Wii’s so far will be Just Dance 2020-it even outlived the Wiiu. Though, it is backwards compatible anyway.

The Last Stop, Fifa 20 (being replaced with 22) Jurassic World Evolution, MotoGP 20.
I won't miss these.

MadLad699d ago

Same.
Not to mention Jurassic World Evolution 2 is now on there.

MasterChief3624698d ago

Jurassic World Evolution 2 is on there? Yoooo. I need to play that one! I LOVE the first one.

Tedakin697d ago

TMNT > All of these games times 100.

iplay1up2697d ago

TMNT is so much fun! That came out of the blue for me! I have only been playing Arcade mode, but it's an instant classic already!

EA Are Removing FIFA 20 From EA Play

EA have announced in their online service updates notice that FIFA 20 will not be playable on EA Play from July 1, 2022.

Orchard709d ago

So basically, FIFA 22 is coming to the service.

lockedongamer1709d ago

Is, not are. EA is a singular entity as it's a company, not a group.

huzaifakhan709d ago

Really; grammar policing on a video game forum?

F0XHOUND709d ago

Eh, cut lockedongrammar1 some slack man... fml >.<

Top 10 Worst Games of 2020

Alex S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "There are no two ways about it, 2020 sucked. Many will remember the last 365 days as some of the most trying in living memory and are more than thrilled to cast our 2020 calendars into a large fire. But we can’t really move into 2021 with a clear conscience without totally confronting all the negative things that happened in 2020, including video game releases."

It really hurts to see the XIII Remake in that list. I loved the original game and bought the remake without reading reviews, that was a big mistake. It is sad what they have done to this game.:(

RgR1237d ago (Edited 1237d ago )

I completely misread your comment before.

Yup I agree

Darthpaul841237d ago

Oh wow! Is it really that bad? Was hoping to give it a go after I play thru my fall backlog

PitbullMonster1237d ago

I m sure they will patch a lot of broken things in this game but it will take time. Just wait half a year or a year.

djl34851237d ago

The list became a shit list as soon as Cyberpunk was listed. Just because you played it on your shit base console, doesn't make it one of the worst games of 2020.

Paridinojelly1237d ago (Edited 1237d ago )

Definitely one of the most disappointing, though. It kind of reminds me of Mass Effect 3.

mikeboccher1237d ago

Mass effect 3 was great, just the ending sucked beyond everything.

Ashunderfire861236d ago

Mass Effect 3 was great up until the ending compared to being Cyberpunked by this game!

Knightofelemia1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

ME3 is at least playable and has no game breaking glitches or random crashes unlike Cyberpunk the only thing that blew about ME3 is the ending. I got to enjoy ME3 never had to sit around and wait for an update like Cyberpunk and the second update made the game worse.

CYALTR1236d ago

Are you thinking of Andromeda? That was a train wreck at launch that never really recovered

TheExecutioner1237d ago

it was announced for the base console, so yes it should be on the list

Mr_Luke1237d ago

If they say the game is for X, Y, and Z, it has to run well on X, Y and Z.
No excuses. If i can't buy a new console, i still have the old one and i'm really waiting for that game, i get a bad surprise. Bad surprise = disappointing. So yes, it deserves to be there.

Sherif1291237d ago

Maybe read the author's reasoning into why it's in their list? Completely agree with their justification.

thorstein1236d ago

The game runs well on PC, PS5, and XboxSX. That doesn't mean it isn't a terrible game that (as the author of this piece said) "Cyberpunk 2077 has the best chance of being updated and fixed."

Running well doesn't mean it isn't a glitch filled, unpolished mess.

Ashunderfire861236d ago

Ray Trace Lotion 🧴 only mask the problems on the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077, and it’s not just the bugs! The A.I is outdated especially with the police 👮‍♀️ 👮‍♀️ that randomly appears to shoot you! And the NPCs are dumb as rocks with barely any reactions to your actions! The world building sucks compared to GTA 3-5, Watchdogs, and Red Dead 2!!!

ScootaKuH1236d ago

So all of a sudden the base consoles are shit and it's not the developer's shit optimisation?

There may be a decent game underneath but all versions have issues. It shouldn't have been released in the state it was in so it absolutely deserves to be on the list

CYALTR1236d ago

If you are going to release a game, it should work on the consoles it is released on. Everyone should understand that it's not going to run the same on an next gen or high end console as it runs on base, but it should at least be playable, and it is not for many.

F&F Crossroads & PC3 were dumped on gamers by Codemasters knowing they were going to get taken over by Take Two or EA. It was a last ditch attempt to get rid of those steaming piles of dogs mess.

Terry_B1237d ago (Edited 1237d ago )

Cyberpunk does not belong in this list. After seeing the many many positive reviews for Tamarin (it has a 72% positive rating on Steam) I also doubt it belongs in a list of disappointing games of the year.

gamer78041237d ago

I could understand how it could be disappointing for those on base consoles but it doesn’t make the game itself bad.

ScootaKuH1236d ago

Oh it does. It was released in a broken state. After the sky high hype how can it not be anything but a disappointment? Anyone who's happy with the state the game is currently in is lying

Magog1237d ago

Cyberpunk is a bad game folks. No AI and a rushed incomplete story. Graphics are the only thing it has going for it. Difficulty is completely busted as well.
