Looks like a new horror game?
Anyone have any news?

Which BioWare? The real one or one of the EA studios they re-branded as "BioWare" when they acquired the name?

As ME4 is being made as we speak I would say one of the other studios

Bioware is a EA brand, the talent left that studio years ago.

See the man who thinks there was ever talent at Bioware.

I've been chosen? No, I've been spammed. Straight in the bin it went, with a guarantee that I will not buy whatever their game is.

Hmm, why? I thought everybody was entitled to like or dislike whatever they wanted to?

I take it you're a big EA fan

EA has multiple teams I presume it's a multibillion dollar company and as such will produce good and bad stuff.

Take each game on merit.

Not really, I like and dislike things they've done. 'hating' a company is pretty pathetic though. And instantly dismissing a new project with a 41 second teaser video seems a little premature...

Exactly. So many haters on this forum.

Nah. How about "EA bought and then killed some really good studios, and on principle I won't touch any of their stuff with a 10" pole"...?

That coupled with the fact that most EA games are a steaming pile anyhow.

Not at all, from EA I've mostly played SSX, Skate, Fifa, Mirror's Edge, Mass Effect and they've all been great. Only game that's really disappointed me is Dragon Age 2 and I got that fairly cheap a while later.

They release a ridiculous amount of great games over the years. They're just the cool thing to hate at the moment (like Ubisoft) people love jumping on a bandwagon.

What was the last franchise EA didn't ruin after acquisition?

Only EA game I like and buy regular is FIFA. Mainly because there isn't competition.

I play BF4 now and then, but that is just ok. Just....
