If you looked at EA's financial reports you would realise pretty quickly that it is not in a position to support a platform that it will only sell 10,000 copies on.
Tell you what, @RAFFwaff - you guarantee with a contract to EA that you will buy one million copies of a game on Wii U. I bet you EA produces that game. #3.1.3
Except neither XCom nor Tactics Ogre even come close to the strategic depth of a Paradox title.
You're getting Tactics games mixed up with the Strategy genre. If you have actually played a game like Hearts of Iron or Europa Universalis, you would realise how silly it is to compare Tactics Ogre to Paradox games. #1.1
For some weird reason I am really looking forward to this. I've been an on-and-off fan of FIFA over the years, but this is the first I reckon I'll get on day one. #2
The reason that Civilization games are not right for consoles is because they're not hyper-linear games that tell players every single thing they need to do, funnel them down corridors and highlight target objectives with bright neon lights.
In other words, because Civilization games requires players to have a brain, these games have no hope in beating Call of Duty ;-) #4
@tea_bag242 actually it does. The strength of the Japanese yen means for export-heavy businesses (such as Japan's game development industry) to product content internally is more expensive than in markets where the currency is depressed (such as the US and Europe).
Capcom was essentially outsourcing to reduce cost. It didn't work and so it's stopping that practice. Which is fair enough, but it does mean more expensive development cycles for Capcom. #1.1.9
That's not how it works. As India continues to develop and the middle class emerges, minimum wages and standards of living in India will inflate. This will in turn make manufacturing more expensive. It will then move to another, less developed nation - likely Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos or some of the more stable emerging nations in Africa like Kenya.
The only way to compete in manufacturing is to do so on cost. There is minimal room for additional services so that manufactu... #2.3
78% of the people that voted in that poll are absolute fucking idiots.
Those kids should get out of the basement and go live in the real world for a while. They'll quickly learn that EA isn't even on the radar when it comes to immoral business practices and anti-consumer behaviour. #5
AirPlay is capable of pretty much exactly what you just outlined. It works well, displays games at 1080p and on your TV screen, however large that is. #1.1.1
A very silly strategy. First impressions count, and judging from Twitter Microsoft just got off to a very poor first impression. #1.2

Seriously it's impossible to give you point of view credit when write illiterately. #12
Games press gets this wrong all the time. #10
As good as those games are. I want a sequel to King's Field #2

And I preferred them King's Field IV especially is my favourite game that From has ever made. #2

You want games journalism to get better? Start by insisting the writers understand the very basics of writing. #3.1.1
