Serafine said:Well, at least Sony doesn't kill every studio they absorb, unlike Electronic Arts which just slaughtered Visceral Games (Dead Space) after completely failing to grasp that the type of games this studio made though brilliant were niche and would always stay niche. But apparently lots of money isn't enough for EA, if you can't make ALL THE MONEY you're dead.
Electronic Arts is basically the Darth Vader of the game industry killing studio after studio for what is really EA's own strategic faults. Hopefully no smaller studio will ever make a deal with them again.
p.s. Mark my words, Bioware is next. EA doesn't have any interest in producing good games anymore, all they wanna do is selling glorified pay2win gambling simulators with edgy graphics to make all the money in the world until the bubble bursts.
