“You have been kicked by PunkBuster.”
As an avid PC gamer, I am well-acquainted with this grim statement. From America’s Army to Bad Company 2, PunkBuster has done its best (or its worst) to prevent me from accessing my games. It’s generally required a visit to the games’ respective forums in order to hunt down the latest post about PunkBuster not working, download several files, place them in the correct directory, and tweak some of the coding in the game.
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?
damn punkbuster still looks the same , since back when i played Sof2 lol
