Somehow I think most of the games cancelled or at least the majority are crappy Wii games(I hope anyway).
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 4,7 GHz
Asrock X670E Steel Legend
G.Skill Trident Z5 32 GB DDR5 6400Mhz
Asus TUF RTX 4090 24 GB GDDR6X
NZXT Kraken Z73 RGB
Corsair HX1500i Platinum
NZXT H7 Flow

Fuck, Dead Space was great
I did predict ea's downfall, this may be it. A shame it came when they increased game quality, strange, maybe people do buy more shit and have crappy taste.

Well we know that the studio for skate 3 was among those said to be the hardest hit..
Hope skate 3 still comes, it's the only reason i still have a xbox 360.
Losing Dead space would suck to, i loved the first game, Mirrors edge was cool too but not as good as the other two mentioned.

Dead Space was a succesfull multimedia new IP. You don't kill already established IPs to make instead entirely new games.
For all we know a lot of the games that were canceled, could be games that they hadn't even announced yet, and they killed them in favor of making sequels.
Here's something EA's CEO said in February: http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/57075
EA CEO John Riccitiello noted that "games with a 2 on them sell better" and have lower R&D costs.
And then like you peoples were all like, "YOU IS TROLLIN!" and I was like "I AM NOT TROLLING!! I AM guess_who_kthxbai YOU SEE! Mm!"

No info on what 12 games ....grrr
How could they release this info and neglect to tell us what 12 games they canned or bother to put our fears to rest if some of the more sought after titles are safe..

No studios are being closed.

Uh...no. There is no rumor that Madden is canceled. Are you high?
Or, do you mean for PC? Yeah, Madden is off PC for a few years, that's not news. It's been 2 years since the last Madden on PC.

less advertising in commercials - making a good games that will make good opinions will handle it. Good finished game will sell itself |
Ah, to be young and naive. No, games with the production quality (and the investment that requires) that people expect nowadays cannot "sell themselves" on word-of-mouth alone. You seriously, seriously underestimate the importance of marketing. People don't get degrees in this shit, and spend millions on ad consulting agencies, for nothing.

Skate 3 is not cancelled, and ME2 and DS2 were never announced, and there is no word that potential sequels to either are in development and still going forward, or were in development, and have been axed.

What do you mean "downfall"? Please don't tell me you think they're going under.

He's not a bad guy, really, considering his position. He's a hell of a lot better than Bobby Kotick, that's for damn sure.

I don't really get into MMOs that much, but I had a pretty good time in Warhammer Online (Mythic / EA) for a bit. Sad how that turned out. Not real happy to hear about all those people being fired, either.
As long as EA doesn't do anything negative to BioWare. Ever.

Based on the fact they are cutting whatever makes them the least cash, and they never stop telling us how that's PC games.
Back in your hole troll.

Also Mirrors Edge 2 was confirmed back in june or july.

Still no word on which titles got axed? Damned shame if the new Syndicate game is one of them.

When you say "downfall," that sounds like an expectation of them going out of business or something. EA has expanded and shrunk many times in it's history. It's just business.
| Quote: | | Where did you find this info? |
Uh, it's pretty apparent. EA has not said that Skate 3 is canceled (and really, the game is only 6 months away), so until we know something more, there is no reason to think it is.

Seems like that article is conjecture. Soderlund said "You will see another Mirror’s Edge for sure," not, "ME2 is in development right now."
