I really want to play this game, but I watched a friend of mine play it on his 360 and I thought it was awful. The textures looked terrible along with the animations and it seemed to me like it was super easy because the AI was pretty poor. The game story seemed good and the actual gameplay looked smooth, however. I plan on buying a ps4 in a week or two and I wanted to get this game with it. I want to know if these things were terrible just cuz it was being played on a 360. Will playing it on a more powerful system fix these problems or is that just how the game is? Thanks in advance for your advice!!!

I am interested in this game cuz I really like WWII stategy games, but I like the games that let you play as two or more of the factions. The review mentions that the game "focuses" on the Soviet side of things and isn't clear to the extent of the German involvment. I'd like some feedback on this topic. Also, I've never played the first Company of Heroes. Is it still worth picking up? What are the factions you play as in the original? Thanks in advance for your input.
