You obviously don't know what you're talking about. It's being made by DICE, who are pretty damn good at their job, I expect this game to deliver a better experience than majority of the games coming out his year.

EA "brought" me none of those titles. EA only develops sports games......They PUBLISHED crysis, burnout and Rockband....you can't really screw something up when you're the publisher.

EA didn't bring any of those titles. EA published those titles. EA brings sports games usually. Crytek brought Crysis. Criterion brought Burnout Paradise. Harmonix brought Rock Band.


EA tends to screw up when they develop games theirselves, unless once in a blue moon they bring a great title, like FIFA 08.

incase people haven't realized it yet, EA has changed...

That "City-State" model isn't them making **** up. They really are just letting their developers do their thing.

Good developers make good games. EA knows this. So they just let their developers make good games and then, in return, they make profit from the good games getting good sales.

EA owns some fantastic developers now. Criterion, DICE, BioWare, Maxis and Pandemic. Those developers are just making their games. And they are making good games.

Well we haven't seen any real gameplay videos, only these colorful trailers, so yeah, I don't know why people are hyping Mirror's Edge. It's like hyping Killzone 2 because of the CGI movie. People should wait until they see gameplay footage, but hey, let them hype what they want.

I don't know anything about the gameplay, but the graphics look great... actual colors!

As for EA, they are still evil... just not as evil as they used to be. If Spore is as great as the hype I'm giving it, I'll even say that EA is neutral... even good.

Seeing as EA owns alot of good devs, I don't understand all the hate.

Oh and another game that EA (not one of the studios it owns) actually makes is Need for Speed. So they make: Sports, Medal of Honor and Need for Speed.

Look how Battlefield 2 turned out. FIFA 08, developed by EA Sports turned out great too. EA isn't a Nazi regime. They're a company that have been making **** moves, but seem to be fixing that by putting some faith on new IPs, which I like.

That trailer IS gameplay according to devs, they showed it to Eurogamer a while back the exact same level from the trailer.

The first trailer was gameplay footage. Anyway, it has a clean, distinct, colorful artstyle, parkour has been great in most other games featuring it, first person perspective is interesting, has a relatively intriguing plot and the whole premise and presentation of it is cool and slick. Plus it's developed by DICE. I think that's more than enough reasons to be looking forward to it.

A lot of you guys really don't know wtf. Madden? That's made by another dev that EA acquired like a decade ago, now EA Tiburon. EALA? Also used to be another dev before EA acquired them a long time ago, and they're Medal of Honor / C&C, among others. EA Black Box? Another dev EA acquired, and they did Need for Speed / Skate. There's only a handful of exceptions.. EA Canada (FIFA!) and EA Montreal were both brand-new studios built from the ground up. So where's the invisible line one draws in the timeline where something isn't really 'developed' by them anymore? Burnout or Battlefield or Spore today is 'made by EA' just as much as Madden, FIFA or Fight Night. The thing is they used to try to impose a corporate culture on a lot of the devs in the past, but stopped doing that around the time they bought DICE and Criterion 4ish years ago. Maxis has pretty much always had the freedom in Wil Wright's case. So yeah, now they give all the devs a fair amount of autonomy to do things their way, but it's definitely developed under their umbrella. Just like... say, Activision and CoD4 / Tony Hawk / GH3, they're all outside devs that Activision acquired. EA did distribute/publish a few games that were big, but not many... Rock Band, Hellgate: London, Crysis and The Orange Box I think. They had much more of a hand in something like Rock Band than they did in Hellgate or Orange Box, though.

DICE is making it . They made Battlefield Bad Company (8.5 game ) so it has potential.

Not just EA. More specifically, it's being made by DICE, the guys that bought us Battlefield.

I think that they are more than capable of delivering.
