Extrapolate must be a very common word on this site, because no one seems to know its actual meaning anymore:

1. to infer (an unknown) from something that is known; conjecture.
2. Statistics. to estimate (the value of a variable) outside the tabulated or observed range.
3. Mathematics. to estimate (a function that is known over a range of values of its independent variable) to values outside the known range.

You must have some interesting powers if you're able to "extrapolate" a quote.

And you think that High Voltage is the only developer that works under tough conditions? Developers at EA, no matter how much money they have to work with, still work under time constraints. And let's see what ratings the games you listed got. Harvey Birdman got around 60% on all three platforms, and Family Guy did even worse (getting about 50% on the PS2 and PSP and a 57-58% on the Xbox). Small bits of brilliance make up for a complete lack of quality? Well, that's fine. Different strokes for different blokes.

And while I agree that EA doesn't make very high quality movie based games, there are still some good ones (especially the Lord of the Rings games) that could outclass most High Voltage games.

As for EA and Rockstar, EA isn't a great developer but they publish some pretty good games. And with Rockstar, they're definitely a good developer although they don't seem to put much effort into their Midnight Club series.

 

Translation: No, I have never played one HV game and I am trying to look smarter posting gamerankings average scores. If you think that LoR games were good, then you are a lost cause. I would also mention that a single GTA game got more glitches than all the games HV developed. And they also got the same repetitive gameplay, the difference is that GTA always get 9+.

What is the point of going on if you had not played HV games but still think EA is better? Do you really think LoR (the 2nd and 3rd) is a fair comparison to Family Guy, KND or Harvey Birdman? I said show me similar quality games with the same budget and time constraints.
