Catching Up On the Backlog- January 31, 2005 Yeah, I know, I've been slacking. Between work and Champions of Norrath, I've been neglecting the site. But I'm here now, to catch up on the backlog of EA-related news. I mentioned the layoffs and the increased profits in the last post, so that's off my plate for now. Empire at War All you Westwood Studios fans (myself included) have reason to celebrate. No, I'm not talking about the announcement of Red Alert 3, I'm talking about the announcement of LucasArts' Empire at War, developed.http://www.guilesworld.com/blog/_archives/2005/1/30/291115.html EA's "Fixing" Their Problems Ahead of Schedule- January 29, 2005 Surprise, surprise. Two months after promising to fix the problems everyone's been talking about, EA has instead layed off 60 people from EA Los Angeles, at the same time as they announced how much their profits were up over last year. Anyone care to lay odds that the people gone are the ones who complained most EA's just given notice to their employees to shut up and like it.http://www.guilesworld.com/blog/_archives/2005/1/29/290026.html |
