@zukaus, Ok, let's see what game EA offered in 2009. In 2009, Riccitiello would be 2 years into his CEO position. He would have sufficient development time to show off the kind of game he wanted.
I am not really concerned about EA fate, since I don't have ERTS stock. I am more concerned that EA's All-play franchise are widely rejected by gamers, and their sales # suffered a lot. EA should followed Tiger Woods series treatment of Wii, not Madden 09 All Play. If this kind of mis-treatment of Wii keep happening in the future, it give opportunity to other companies (whether it is western or japanese) to grab EA's market share, and run with it.
I realized that my previous post on EA made me look like I hate EA, but I am not. I am mostly "don't care" about EA, since I don't play EA produced games (like realistic sports games). I do however played games by Origin, Westwood on PC, and EA's treatment of those companies and their IP is "severely disappointing", to say the least (it did'nt cause me to hate EA).
I hope EA's treament of Bioware (another favorite company for me) are much better than Origin and Westwood.
