I personally would rate them higher but EA won't do that. In terms of FUT, here's what I would have as gold, silver and bronze cards: GOLD (75+) Boruc Clyne Yoshida Lovren Shaw Schneiderlin Wanyama Cork Lallana Ramirez Lambert Rodriguez Osvaldo SILVER (65-74) Davis Gazzaniga Chambers Fonte Hooiveld Fox Davis Ward-Prowse Puncheon Guly Mayuka BRONZE (0-64) Isgrove
Indeed the Naughty Dog games are the main draw to PS for me, them and Planetside 2 are the games that I would love to have cross platforms, nothing else really excites me. To be honest Halo and Gears have staled for me, Halo 3 was what really got me into multiplayer on console after being a Counter-Strike addict on PC, and Gears 1 and 2 are among my favourite games, but whilst Halo 4's single player was good I couldn't get into the groove on multiplayer and GOW Judgement was a massive failure (How can you possibly release a game of that size with 4 maps and 3 game modes at launch?!). Titanfall and Dead Rising 3 are the two I'm most looking forward to by a mile for me, but to be honest the the only thing that really decided my preference is the fact that all my mates are heading to Xbox One, simple as that really, I love an engrossing single player but the social aspect has always been my biggest draw to gaming.

Well, the OVR is what the majority of fans of other teams will use to judge how good our players are, so it matters in that sense. Also, I hope Wanyama's actual attributes are more appropriate this year.
But that doesn't change the fact it's quite an unnecessary feature and can deter people away from players that are better suited to the gameplay, in favour of a player who's just got a high overall. http://sofifa.com/en/fifa13winter/player/149273-victor-wanyama Vic looks decent here.
