Wow, I’ve got a lot of catching up to do! I probably won’t be posting anything about news that’s happened since my hiatus, but I’ll be going through and providing some impressions of games released since then and talking about news going forward!
EA games have typically been questionable. As a publisher, EA has managed to piss off a huge portion of its fan base. As a developer, it’s been known for pretty lackluster titles. EA’s head hauncho, John Ricatello, said that he regrets some of the choices that EA has made in recent years. He felt that EA had homogonized their development studios and stifled their creativity. He pledged to turn things around and give more freedom to the devs.
The developers of Dead Space were practically given free reign while working on this game, did EA’s change in philosophy help to create a good game, or is EA still struggling with it’s 180 degree manuever? Hit the jump to find out.
I’m back!
Anyway, look at this deal! Found over on Kotaku, Tabula Rasa is on the cheap at Amazon.com, for a mere $0.96. Yes, that’s right, that’s less than one dollar. It also includes a month of free play.
If you were ever interested in at least trying out Richard Garriot’s space FPS-wannabe MMO, now’s the time to do it…before they decide to shut the game down permanently!
