EA has helped put Sega out of console business by not supporting the Dreamcast.

Am I to feel bad for them or something?

EA invested millions of dollars into the Saturn and SEGA pulled the plug on it.

That is why they didn't support the Dreamcast.

While that is true there was no reason for EA not to start supporting the dreamcast after it was such a success for the first year. Here is an interesting article.

"Sega is seen by EA as a drowning man without their lifeboat, and they are completely content to watch them drown. It's so painfully obvious that they're just out to see Sega go down. I mean, they're porting Madden to Macintosh, for crying out loud. I'm sure all five Mac gamers will appreciate it much more than the million who bought NFL2K. Yeah, and I'll be quitting this job to work at 7-11 in the near future, too."
