RIP all those beautiful studios. (I dont have any memories of Dreamworks Interactive though)
Electronic Arts? More like Electronic Farts.
Bullfrog was a lost legend of development. Back when Peter Molyneux wasn't a pile of lies in a trenchcoat.
Your feeling of helplessness is your best friend, savage!
That quote is from RA2, produced by EA.
It's a good one, but rules are rules.
Sooner or later time will tell
I dunno. Maxis is a bit of a mix bag. Had EA not brought them, they might have gone bankrupt.
Yes, SimCity 3000 and 4 was very-very good. Sims 1 and 2 were also under EA, and they weren't a cash grab like 3. Spore was also fun. The last SimCity, in 2012 was shit.
Spore would have been an amazing game if it was like the early demos and not transformed into some weird kid thing.
Fair, but they've long since been dismantled and still hold a special place in our hearts.
Oh, yeah... Completely agree. Shell of their former self that's now left to make DLC for god knows how long.
