@MonkeyKinght98 Well if that's the case then fair play to him for sacrificing any respect which he might have been able to gather as a journalist for the greater good of the company.
Eddie - you write so many of these articles about poorly done research with 'no shit, Sherlock' results & a conclusion which barely - if at all - relates to those results. Every one of them gets a slew of criticism in the comments section. So why do you think it's a good idea to carry on churning them out?
@4-Legged-Shark Somewhere on GS there's a comment by me saying that he was "probably my favourite person in the industry". Boy have I felt an idiot over the past few months.
Just a normal commentary would have sufficed to show off a bonus which is little more than a bunch of social networking & mini-game features; no need for the Two Steps From Hell-esque music or the overly dramatic announcer saying '...THE WATCH' every ten seconds. I'll be surprised if this even appeals to the 13 year-olds who it's obviously been targeted at.
@kagento @moonlightwolf01 @slaves Thanks. I think it was mostly that Brutal Legend lawsuit that confused me with the third party stuff.
So what about developers partnered with EA itself like Bioware? Would it be theoretically possible for them to move onto other publishers or do they & everything they produce 'belong' to EA now? (if so what would it be that protects EA? Surely not copyright laws?)
So what happens to the franchises which EA Partners published? Are they still 'owned' by EA (were they in the first place?) or are their developers free to make more games with different publishers or what? Don't know much about the legal side of these things.
