EA can rot in hell... Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I've just learned that EA has purchased DICE, the makers of IMO the best racing game ever Rallisport Challenge 2. They're also trying to buy out Ubisoft (Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell, Beyond Good and Evil, etc...). So far they've bought 20% of Ubisoft. Everyone already knows what they've done with the NFL.

When will it end. For the sake of good games everywhere, EA must be stopped!!!!

Ubisoft deserves to be bought, for putting the last nail in the coffin for one of the greatest games ever made

Adagio, which game do you mean? Prince of Persia 2?

Actually, the only thing I care about the Ubisoft makes is Splinter Cell, so as long as EA doesn't have anything to do with that part I can tolerate it.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Ubi Soft bought Blue Byte (creators of The Settlers) just before the release of The Settlers IV. They might not be the ones who makes the new "settlers" game, but I believe they have much to say about it... (I could be wrong though, it's only my guess)

But yes, as I have said before, S3 + S4 was already a huge step backwards for them, but at least those games had something to do with the Settlers games... the new one doesn't

I remember some good EA games on my old Comadore 64...

It's disturbing seeing the "EA" label on so many games these days, really. Part of the reasons games were so good, IMHO, is because they had to be for competition purposes... (minus the yearly sports games...)

An updated NBA Jam would be great, but I don't see it happening.

No and no.

The Bale's Tale was created by Interplay. M.U.L.E. was written for the Atari 800 first, then ported over to the C64. How else do you think there are 4 players in total?
