Madden NFL 13 producer Yuri Bialoskursky was asked to describe the comfort level of the Wii U GamePad. Bialoskursky claims that, compared to traditional video game controllers, the Wii U GamePad is huge but gamers will get used to it, after playing with it for a while. According to Bialoskursky, the Wii U GamePad is not awkward to hold, doesn’t detract from gameplay, and “is actually very comfortable.”
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Burnout 3 / 4 / 5
Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
Gareth, Justin, and JoeyZ look at Layoff news for EA and Sony and reasons behind the downturn in the industry and more.
EA CEO Andrew Wilson writes: "In this time of change, we expect these decisions to impact approximately 5 percent of our workforce. I understand this will create uncertainty and be challenging for many who have worked with such dedication and passion and have made important contributions to our company. While not every team will be impacted, this is the hardest part of these changes, and we have deeply considered every option to try and limit impacts to our teams. Our primary goal is to provide team members with opportunities to find new roles and paths to transition onto other projects. Where that’s not possible, we will support and work with each colleague with the utmost attention, care, and respect. Communicating these impacts has already begun and will be largely completed by early next quarter."
All the big ones doing the same stuff. Terrible. I just hope that all these people are able to get a new job as soon as possible, God know that it is horrible to be left jobless when you have your kids or your parents depending on your financial help
The point I feel is problematic about all of this is that focusing on Owned Ip means more sequels, remasters and more of what was selling last year.
The Nintendo Wii U entertainment system gamepad comfort level and functionality look to shape the future in how we enjoy our hobby. After being blessed by a 10 minute video of the Nintendo gamepad innovative spin on Mass Effect 3, the Nintendo Wii U entertainment system is for sure a day one purchase for me and millions more of the Nintendo Elite fanbase.
Every new generation of Nintendo platform excellence brings the consumer a new comfortable controller. Each and every controller so far in the history of the Nintendo platform has brought something new to the gaming spectrum. Comfort has never been left out of the picture. And for that I salute Nintendo, and its hard working talented employees for their efforts. Lord Miyamoto master and savior of gaming innovations should be very pleased.
Have a blessed day and happy gaming.
Rated E for everyone
I definitely agree. Sometimes quality can't be measured with quantity at the outset, but shows up in the long run.
Thats good to hear.
I hope they show something other than Unreal Engine.
I will judge for myself when I get my hands on it. It certainly looks a mess but hey I've not played it yet. I'll decide if I like it when I get to use it but thanks for your view Mr. Bialoskursky.
