"Bryan Banfield, EA's Community Manager in SA about the new MMA title and gives his thoughts on the UFC vs MMA debate." - GameState
There are no thoughtful ads in Video Games, EA. Leave them be.
I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.
But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.
One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
I have to say, despite the smaller roster of UFC fighters in EA's game, it's visually miles ahead of THQ's offering. I haven;t had much chance to play it, so I can;t really say which is better from a gameplay perspective - but EA's is much slicker.
Love the controls for EA MMA. You can finally do your own punches by using the Analog compared to THQ's smash the controller.
The one problem I had with THQ's go at UFC was the staying power. I played for a few hours and then got bored. With what EA is bringing to the party, this one looks to blow THQ out the water! Cant wait!
Looks like an insane amount of customization and playability!
not a real fan of MMA.....but this dude looks like his about to wet his panties over this game... kuk funny... have to admit his actually made me want to consider getting it :)
