FIFA 15: 10 Brand New Features To Make It The Best Ever

1. (Actual, Half Decent) Trophy Celebrations

The FIFA franchise already has trophy celebrations but they are truly horrible. You€™ve just invested actual hours of your life into career mode that you€™re never going to get back again guiding Arsenal through a full league campaign to (very rare) Premier League glory and what€™s your reward? A half-baked, incompetent cut-scene that is devoid of atmosphere, drama and passion depicting the €œwinners€ jumping up and down in the centre circle holding aloft their prize as the commentary cuts off completely.

No €œArsenal have done it! They€™ve ended their nine year trophy drought, what a moment for Arsene Wenger!€ from Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend. Just a €œthanks for watching, see you next time.€ What?

At least the 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cup games got their trophy celebrations right with actually-relevant and applicable lines of commentary to match the celebrations, which were rather well polished. So I ask, if EA can replicate the glorious moment a team wins a trophy in the World Cup versions of their games, why are we still waiting for a realistic trophy presentation in the FIFA franchise? 15 has to be the game that finally gets this right, because we've all put up with this glaring issue for too many years.
