CVG: Label head Andrew Wilson on UFC, FIFA 13 and next-gen
Following the release of EA Sports FC 24, the publisher seems to have removed FIFA 14 up to 22 from major digital storefronts.
“Virtual Creations” from Nike's .swoosh WEB3 Platform will be integrated into EA titles.
Nike has struck a deal with Electronic Arts that paves the way for the introduction of NFTs to the publisher’s sports games.
You gotta love EA. They've always got their finger on the pulse of the gaming community in regards to the wants and desires of the players /s
EA: We need a new way to be voted the worst company
Nike: Have you tried child slave labor? No?... well how about a Jordan NFT. We will even throw in Chinese LeBron NFTs for free!
How could they not know this is the wrong ass move. If EA survive this which they will, they are seriously untouchable. Too many casuals play their games and dont know what happening or even give a dam
EA Sports is proposing a 10% revenue share for universities who agree to be in their College Football video game set to be released in July 2024. Schools who choose to participate will receive guaranteed payouts of between $10,000 and $100,000 per year.
Good idea but I expect the NCAA and college boards to swipe away all that money for themselves.
This means 2 things
1.Ultimate Team is Confirmed
2.They have some competition from another Studio
Bro, pay as much as you need to and don't be greedy, cuz I NEED my college football game back 🤣
It was the ONLY sports game I bought annually
'The future of gaming is away from the television'
Why?
So now they have succeeded conquering the living room (with X Box and PS3...and now they want to leave it?
I would say so to an extent but where that extent leads we may not know. Sure you will have gaming consoles, even though they are more PC/media devices now as well but mobile is thriving due to accessibilty and low cost.
Mobile gaming is alive and well and only will expand to a point where you won't be able to tell if it is a dedicated gaming console or a 10 inch tablet and I look forward to that day.
People may enjoy mobile gaming because it's convenient and something to do to pass the time, but how is gaming on a small screen ever going to match the experience of going home to game on your 50 inch flat screen? It's not. Two completely different experiences and there is a place for both of them. Why this idiot would say otherwise is beyond me. I enjoy getting a bunch of friends together to battle it out in competition. It's much more personal that way. It's much more fun beating the crap out of your friends in your own living room than battling with some anonymous troll online that you don't know.
I'd only enjoy it leaving the living room if the interface is like Ghost in the Shell......
