No support for WiiU means I only buy stuff from others. Means BF4 may be the first one I don't own. :(

Though I do want NFS... at least its being advertised as a criterion game.


What others?
WiiU Support will get cancelled after the CrossGen games are over.
Battlefield 4 isn't the only graphic intense game with a kinda new Engine(for consoles first time real use of it) that is coming.

Far too high pricing
Im glad i don't care for anything else than Fifa on Consoles from them.
BF4 is still a PC game for me.

Yeah i hate that here too
Im glad there are small shops in Austria who go directly down to 50€ with new games sometimes and undercut gamestop and other assshops totally.
Its mostly even cheaper to import from Canada



Am I the only one here who has been, and continues to, boycott EA for their viral drain on the game industry?

EA's CFO Blake Jorgenson:
""We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way; to get to a higher level, to buy a new characters; to buy a truck or gun or whatever it might be," Jorgensen said. "And consumers are enjoying and embracing that way of business.""

EA turns off game servers even for games only a year old.
They have stated they'd prefer a digital download only game industry.
They have stated they'd prefer a game industry that did not allow for used games.
They say they expect pricing to start at $70 for PS4 titles.
They take game franchises and turn them into generic shooters, but support their decision claiming that the game MUST be made for a wider audience or else it won't make enough money. Yet, these same game franchises are already hugely successful. (Dead Space 3 is one of them)
They make fun of COD for having a price that includes all of the map packs, then turn around and do the exact same thing for BF3.

This list goes on and on....

EA mentioned already that BF4 is on Wii U too.



Probably $60 retail and $70 DD. Maybe the opposite way around.

"8-10x the power of current gen consoles"

I said that months ago here in the forum... even before the first leak.

Now some questions... why EA is trying to sell the games over the price defined by Sony? Can they do that?

Except for FIFA 14 no other game is buy to me from EA... maybe something new from them.



didn't know EA had a conference today

$70? That would be...£60?

That's actually more like, $74. The Euro to Dollar exchange rate is pretty much 1.
