    Next we’ll be hearing that EA acquired Epic … is no one safe from this Behemoth who has no clue how to make good solid games anymore. I’m afraid to see what will happen to the BF franchise now. Maybe I’m just too much of an EA hater to look at this in any other way but negatively.

    Good Day to All

    I see another Corp has bought another compamy. Does this mean that there will not be anymore updates for BF2? Because when LARGE Corp buy good are some what good product. It starte going down hill. Make the monies. Fuck the customers (Gamers, Server providers etc.) I hope that EA prove me wrong. No. I pray EA prove me wrong. No. Please prove me wrong. Than it will be a bater world for all.

    Thanks
