Now, normally I couldn't care less about what EA does... that was before they decided to acquire one of the only companies I have any faith in. This little deal has essentially destroyed the possibility of another decent Western Role-Playing Game ever being released. Thanks a lot, EA, you've done so much for gaming.

Oh, and they also acquired Pandemic, the studio behind Mercenaries, but I'm sure there's no one that cares about that. :D

1) EA is tring to get their #1 spot back from Activision and Nintendo -refrence Kotaku.com-

2) EA likes to make money, and needs good developer studios to do so.

3) BioWare might have gone the way of Bungie, but since it couldn't become an LLC developer, they where bought by EA.

4) BioWare was a Microsoft Gamestudios developer, witch meant develop only for 360, and since they ARE making a Sonic RPG that could be a step, yet SEGA is a developer, a major one, so I sure hope EA doesn't deny BioWare to continue their work with SEGA to finish said game, but this is EA so probably they will request to stop it, developers will say "NO" break from BioWare make their own studio and work under SEGA or back with Microsoft or even go to Sony or Nintendo.
