"We are very proud of the way EA evolved with consumers. I have not green lit one game to be developed as a single player experience. Today, all of our games include online applications and digital services that make them live 24/7/365." --
Frank Gibeau, President, EA Labels. Thanks
supererogatory via
Destructoid. Frank walks back from that in a follow-up on
Kotaku, where explains that these aren't the droids we're looking for: "I still passionately believe in single-player games and think we should build them. What I was trying to suggest with my comments was that as we move our company from being a packaged goods, fire-and-forget business to a digital business that has a service component to it. That's business-speak for ‘I want to have a business that's alive and evolves and changes over time'."

Translation: 'I have zero understanding of the market and gaming in general. It's probably why we've been doing so poorly for years now and were voted the worst company in the world. And I get paid an obscene amount for my incompetence. Ain't life grand?' |
