Saudi Fund to Own Almost All of Electronic Arts After Buyout
-
Racist against Babylonians tbh, Ea Nasir would never treat customers like EA does.
-
Well, there goes the performative progressive values.

Maybe they do a 180° on some of their best IPs and lower the price to make gaming more accessible to more people. It's what I would have done if I had more money than I knew what to do with! A girl can dream. <3 <3

Need For Speed for being anti authority? Honestly, I have been missing a new NFS game. The last one came out in 2022, and the longest wait between them since 1994 was 3 years… Definitely didn’t play them all, but the last two, Heat and Unbound, were surprisingly good.

something tells me the genderfluid bisexual qunari are not the heros in an arab owned company

The "strike" series? Oh wait that was already dead. Command and conq--- no no no already dormant. Oh! How about Road Rash--- Yeah nothing of value is going to be lost
-
Yeah. If there's a Saudi that is rich enough to buy EA on a whim, he'd definitely think $1000 for a game is very cheap and don't understand what pricing issue exists.
-
I can only hope that they sell off Mass Effect to a better company, but I wont get my hopes up
-
mass effect? honestly that's all I can think of off the top of my head. They'll start pumping out more Battlefields, more sports, more money into UFC games and I would bet good money they'll try to buy the license for WWE games from 2k. Saudi's love their WWE.
-
Was mass effect not already dead? Last game was andromeda and people didn’t like it and no news on another one.They announced a new one a few years ago, but I haven't heard anything about it since.
-
They really desecrated Dungeon Keeper. IIRC it was so filled up with mobile game, microtransaction garbage you couldn't even dig blocks of dirt more than once a day without buying "gems".Luckily we have War for the Overworld to pick up where they failed.

Wouldn't give up to much hope in either direction, cause of they do sell it only one of the existing bigger houses are going to be the only ones able to afford it. Although could you imagine a Larian mass effect?
-
EA will stand for Evil Assholes after the buyout.
