One of the most historic studios is closing down. Unfortunately it was dead long ago. Fuck EA

    Also Jade Empire! An under appreciated gem of a game. This is truly a shame, Bioware were one of the last big ones that actually gave a shit about making good games.

        Yeah I’m really not sure why they’ve decided to put anthem on the end of that list.

          Considering they hamstrung Anthem with no support and killed it shortly after release, I was surprised to see it on the list.

          Man that was a great game with incredible potential but they (EA) shit the bed by forcing a release before it was ready and then pulling the plug just as the game was getting in a really good place after a roxky start.

          Anthem had some of the most innovative and fun core gameplay of any AAA in the last 2 decades. The issue was there was nothing else, it was essentially a prologue that just suddenly ended. It’s also an interesting case because the good part of that game (flight) was an idea forced by a CEO or some useless fuck like that.
