And when it blows up in their face, they’ll blame the western dev teams they haven’t owned for years.

Yes, EA will be allowed to continue releasing the same annual franchises while buying, liquidating and closing independent dev studios.

You’re telling me the special sauce that makes a game great isn’t directly proportional to how many lawyers your lawyers lawyer are employed by a developer/piblishing studio?

Remember that stretch from 2008 -2010 when the 360 was doing crazy cool shit that everyone loved?

It was around late 2009-early 2010 when Microsoft started canning all the people that made the 360 a hit a replacing them with Don Mattricks friends and sycophants. Marketing the XBone as a DVR first and console second, right as their demographic was ditching cable.
