    Anyone read the latest Game Informer?

    In the Good, Bad, and Ugly section, it says that EA is angry at Blizzard's World of Warcraft for stealing consumers from their Sims game!

    Did The Sims Online have any consumers?

    Or wait, do you mean just The Sims? What an odd thing to say... Not least because The Sims has pretty much reached 100% market penetration by now. It's like Harry Potter books falling off the best-seller list: everyone who's going to buy one already has, so of course it stops selling

    Considering both of these companies' business tactics, they seem right for each other.

    In yet even more EA-related news, Peter Jackson is sueing New Line for them lending the script of his LotR movies to EA for the LotR games without paying him!

    Is EA still planning on moving to FL?

    Maybe I could apply if they come down here. Then I could be one of those employees discussed on news stories about how EA overworks their employees.

    I'm currently playing Sims 2 not World of Warcraft.
    And Sims online is only avaible in America, afaik. And btw Blizzard is making a very diffrent kind of games, so EA Games should cool down a bit.
