Crazy sales considering how step-down the new Battlefront is in comparison to its predecessors. I can only dream of what it could have been, and how much more sales they could have get for it.



Partnering with Playstation was a good choice for battlefront. Excellent numbers.

This. Also, new franchise? I guess they mean new to EA, but their wording is still silly.



EA gets so much hate



Battlefront was terrible. Just plain bad. Coming from a diehard Star Wars fan.
