I play FIFA 16, and of course that was made solely by EA Sports. So when I heard about a partnership with Frostbite Games (yes, the guys behind Need For Speed The Run), I knew that this would bring FIFA to a whole new level. When I played that demo, I realised just how different it was to my 16 version. But I just didn't think I should upgrade to 17, because of...
