Well truth be told, EA are trying to change it seems. Take Dead Space ….sure it was a pretty basic survival-horror but at the same time, it wasn’t a total piece of crap. Since then they’ve started noticing that not fucking up games helps them. I want to see C&C 4 since it has potential of being great. (They gain 1 million billion points from the start by removing the “1 unit beats all” tactic)

Yes, so DLC and unofficial canon notwithstanding, they have to…hold on, let me break this down for you…MAKE A 3RD GAME. I don’t care when they start making it, it’s Bioware’s story line, and there’s several books out that they’re following…that’s like saying “WHAT THE FUCK GUYS STAR WARS 2 ISN’T EVEN IN THEATERS YET AND THEY’RE ALREADY WORKING ON THE 3RD ONE”…of course they are, everybody knows it’s a trilogy…the 2nd game is done.

“Mass Effect was originally conceived as a trilogy, but EA has confirmed that Mass Effect “will be a franchise for [EA] for a very long time”

What the fuck is wrong with that? Mass Effect was always intended to be a trilogy.

I’ve to admit that EA didn’t ruin Bioware as I expected. For now.

But the fact that Mass Effect 3 is already scheduled (and 2 is not even released yet) doesn’t look like a good sign.

While I would normally agree with that, EA actually looks like saints right now because of their close ties to Bioware…they’re giving us ME2 in January, and it’ll be the best RPG released to date.

@grmnasasin0227: the will, anyway. They don’t need it to be true to say it. If they have to justify poor PC sales, they’ll say it is the piracy. (And they’ll have to, because I don’t think it’ll sell).

@h4x: but they won’t have to justify poor sales on the 360 since it’ll sell lots of copies, so they won’t say a thing.

Playing the piracy card is not hard (no one is going to jump in the conference and say “lies!”), you can use it even if the game doesn’t have a working crack and has 200 downloads on TPB.

It’ll be hard to play the PC piracy card for them after people played pirated MW2 for a week over XBL before the game even got released officially.

Actually, I would caution against pirating it; I will be getting the .iso from a friend who is buying, not from a site. The reason I say don’t torrent is because I don’t want to give them a scapegoat for poor sales. Developers are quick to pull the OH SHEET PIRACY STEALIN AWR GAEMS card, but I really don’t want to give them the option. I want the lack of sales to be solely their problem, and the lack of people buying the PC version should be deafening.
