Just in case you were in any doubt and was optimistic about EA's clear rip off here be the IGN review:

What are you on about?

There's only one true Goldeneye. And it will never, never be forgotten.

EA own the companies who make the games, but EA are a publisher...

Eurocom is the name of one of their developers who frequently make bond games.

And Acclaim have as much right to claim Burnout as EA.

EA have published great lord of the rings games, alright harry potter titles, The latest burnout, the next Timesplitters, Need For Speed, Medal of Honor, SSX and so forth. Decent games, some very decent.

EA are a good company.

Forget about all of the crap games they've made and think about all of the good ones :

- NBA Street Vol.1 and 2

- Burnout 3

- NFSU

- NFS

- SSX

And loads more.

Command And Conquer, Madden, Need For Speed, and their NBA games tend to be very good.

Their bad games - FIFA (now, it used to be very good, it's just blown away by Pro Evo) and their licenced games.

However, you'll find that a lot of people enjoy thier licensed games.
Probably more than those who hate them.

Which is why EA are the scum of the games industry.

At least companies like Ubisoft care about the quality of their games. But not EA, they care about the healthy profits they are racking in.

They make more good games than bad, and the "bad" games appeal to many people.
They're in it for the money, just like all other companies, and they know what makes money best.

Nah, it sucks mate.

EA just can't do a Bond game.

Actually, they can't do anything :S

Technically then, though, it could still be good then?
