I have a bit of a love hate relationship with the Madden football games. I used to buy numerous football games every year, dating back to the early Madden and Joe Montana Sports Talk Football games. I would sometimes buy four or more NFL games by different companies. Usually Madden, 2K, Gameday and NFL Fever which was back on the original Xbox. I love variety when it comes to sports games. Needless to say when I found ESPN NFL 2K5 it felt like I was finally home after a long journey. The game offered things that nobody had even heard of yet, like online leagues, stat tracking, cribs and a halftime show that actually showed highlights from your game. Competition was a very good thing, when ESPN 2K Sports games were released at a budget price of $19.99, EA had to follow suit. People were free to experience the best of both worlds. Why stick to one game when you could experience them all? Then EA did the unthinkable and bought the exclusive rights to the NFL license. Which meant there would be no more competition. I was personally upset because I knew it would be a while before we got the chance to see something new and inventive in a NFL simulator.
When the dust settles on the $55 billion leveraged buyout of Electronic Arts, Saudi Arabia will be its only true owner, despite a “consortium” of investors being involved in the deal. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund will control 93 percent of the company, according to filings with Brazil’s antitrust regulator.
Technically speaking, Saudi Arabia and TENCENT can buy the entire USA. ANf Democrat and Republican will not do crap!
Letting foreign entities own half of American businesses is liberal and very progressive. So is bringing in all that talent from outside the States to replace the talentless and lazy American workers. And here I thought the Trump administration wanted to border is up but nope. We're supposed to worry bout them "radical Muslims" minding their own here and ignore China/Saudi/Israel taking over.
Another thing I hate hearing is "liberal and very progressive"
It's 2025 and that stuff is outdated. Everything and everyway is literally the same thing wheter it's progressive, conservativ. Because they all wants the same thing have, king unlimited oney buy everything including your house.
Now they making mainstream media news that it's AI Bubble justify to highjack the price of RAM.
Another excuse for inflation!
"here I thought the Trump administration wanted to border is up but nope"
Lol, you actually bought what he was selling? Let's see this week alone...
Yesterday he pardoned an international drug lord, while allowing the murder of random fishermen on boats. Remember drain the swamp? He pardoned a Democratic Congressman jailed for bribery just today, nevermind that fraudulent drag queen republican that was kicked out of Congress and imprisoned for their fraud. It's so petty they're picking fights on social media with pop stars while using their music, and even using Franklin the damn Turtle to cartoonify their murders.
People I do not use /s to point out my sarcasm. Should be obvious I don't believe anything coming out of Trump's mouth or any politicians mouth.
its quite ridiculous that they were able to do that. or even allowed to.
but saudis even have their grabby hands in nintendo stocks.
Looking on the bright side, the games may be patched to remove any ideologies that are incompatible for the majority of the world.
Electronic Arts says it will retain creative control if sold to a Saudi-backed group, assuring staff its values and vision stay the same.
EA announced its financial results for the second quarter of its fiscal year 2026, related to the period between July and September.
