Electronic Arts is one of the biggest publishers in the world, and VideoGamer.com be covering its E3 conference in full so you get all the info as soon as we do. It kicks off on Monday June 14 at 10pm BST and we expect plenty of big games to be revealed. A dead cert is Criterion's Need for Speed title, but we're hoping for news on a Mirror's Edge sequel too. Medal of Honor, The Sims, Dead Space 2 and more will also be covered, along with EA's line up of sports games.
EA is laying off an unknown number of individuals from across its Battlefield teams, including workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios, IGN understands.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!
cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla
The free-to-play reboot topped 15 million players in under three weeks, but EA now claims it needs to reshape the development team.
The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result
It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way
The Congressional Labor Caucus sent a letter to the FTC warning the debt-financed, largely PIF-owned deal could be bad news for workers
lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6
Wait,
The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.
NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.
EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
It was the best one so far.
Lots of games, Dead Space 2 looks great, I'm interested in the Sims 3. Fitness games are already plaguing the market, how many do we need??
Was waiting to see Insomniac's game though.
Kinda disappointed they didn't mention anything from Insomniac.
Dead Space 2 and Crysis 2 were great. Lots of other good games too. Bulletstorm looked fun.
Can't wait to see more Dead Space 2 tomorrow....
ooppsss
i arrived late but i enjoyed bullet storm ( but this game isn't for me )
and the old republic part
crysis 2 was meh .. i'm still not sol on this one ..but it might be worth a look since it's the first 3D FPS game .out of there
