TC, if you were intelligent you would know making exclusives goes against EA business model. An EAbox would be completely stupid for them since they want to make the most money possible, in other words, release their games on all the systems they can.

[QUOTE="Fear-"]EA are great devs no matter what you say. Deep down you know it's true and even though you cuss them and call the devils you still buy there's games. So why don't ea make a console they would have loads of exclusives FIFA, Maddan, NBA, BF, MOH, ME etc There target aducineces is everyone so everyone would buy there console. Do you think ea will join the next gen? P.S inb4 I get called a troll.

They are a PUBLISHER. like seriously i think some of you do not the difference bettween pub/dev. Anyway why would they take a a risk on forcing people to buy a new platform. They would have less sales since their would be less units, and odds are their console sales would not balance out the profit

Creating a console requires way too much overhead, and it would segment the market that EA already has. They can't even run a download service capable of competing with Steam, so I don't know why they would want to make hardware.

Because they would have to spend millions and millions of dollars in order to make them just to release the games they are already profiting from anyway

Its like saying to a Remora fish "Hey why don't you ditch the shark and go after your own food?"

Because it would fail and because EA is just the worst company in America which is fact.
