EA in general over past few years seem to be pushing for PC/Mac for more of its games. Now with Frostbite 2 at the core of EA development and possibly coming to Mac it means alot for their upcoming franchises possibly coming to Mac as well.

I wouldn't count out Linux possibly in the future for Frostbite 2 as well. If they are putting their title on say Steambox console. Its said to be based on Linux so games will likely be set for that.

Lots of potential for games to be more modular than ever with way tech is spreading.

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?
