But aha, Nintendo friendly jugganaught EA maybe set to buy out the publisher! Which means? That's right, Eidios' games may be making its way on to a Gamecube near us! Roll on Hitman 4 and Tomb Raider 99...
*Groan*
However now they're going online I'm looking forward to them a lot more.

How many people buy a Gamecube to play EA games? I certainly didn't.
Apparently, at a show in San Fransico, only 2 GameCube games and 1 Game Boy Advance game were shown off by EA and TimeSplitters 3 didn't have a release date.
To me that sounds worrying.

Name some them? you gotta back up ya point with examples!?
EA is a huge company and is extremely valuable to nintendo however most of their games are average. Nightfire, everything or nothing, need for speed, medal of honour, def jam, harry potter are all pretty average titles and series and I would never go as far as to say that any of those games in any of those catergories were particulary "amazing" and that nintendo are "stuffed" if they lose EA as nintendo survives solely for the quality games they themselves produce and would keep producing there own decent games despite the loss.
Just think before you post...
