iTWire writes "Electronic Arts Australia is being quite ballsy in taking its First Play events to the public arena. Giving punters a chance to play pre-release code of big game franchises such as FIFA, Medal of Honor and Need for Speed could result in a wider acceptance and new audience, or a shunning of the brand."
EA just hosted its quarterly financial conference call, and its executives have been asked to comment about the recent price hikes for games.
Today, Electronic Arts announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of its fiscal year 2025, alongside the full year.
Split Fiction has sold nearly 4 million copies, and the next battlefield is confirmed for a release by March 2026 with a reveal this Summer.
In addition to the roughly 100 job cuts IGN reported earlier today at Respawn Entertainment, EA has made wider cuts across its organization today, impacting around 300 individuals total including those already reported at Respawn.
Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....
This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.
Why would anyone willingly work in the VG industry or specifically for one of these globocorp organizations that put you in constant fear of losing your livelihood based on terrible choices made by idiotic management, not the people with talent making the actual games?
That's pretty ballsy.
It took you three pages to say this?
I hope this finally sparks some intrest in MoH warfighter, i have so much faith in that game, the single player of MoH 2010 was golden, and the same dev is making the whole game, danger close. It is truly like CoD and battlefield had a beautiful baby boy that kicks azz.
