    EA CEO on Westwood, Bullfrog and Origin purchases: we "blew it"

    Just caught this on Firingsquad; the original Wired article is here. Anyway, I think it's interesting that EA have fronted up to this now and together with the way Riccitiello was reported to have championed the Bioware purchase against some internal EA resistance seems to point to a...

    So, how was it? You guys mentioned the New York mission (to Gaia) in the news posts, as well as a visit to Baen Books and setting up in the lobby of a hotel to promote Wing Commander during DC. Hope the latter two went well and you were able to catch up with some other Wingnuts! After...

    Conflict of interest?

    While scanning through my usual round of tech and gaming websites this evening I came across this seemingly odd remark in an article titled, "What's Killing Game Development" from the usually quite authoritative Jakub at Firingsquad (emphasis added): Not wanting to dredge up any buried...

    Howdy all, In anticipation of what looks to be a fairly imminent launch -- hopefully by the end of July 2007 at the latest -- I've put together a little trailer to celebrate the return of Wing Commander to the wider gaming public in a big way, when it will launch on XBLA shortly, and also to...

    DailyTech is reporting that Microsoft have increased the game size limit for XBLA games from 50MB to 150MB: What are the likely implications for Arena? Was Gaia Industries anticipating a bigger limit and designing Arena around that or if not, will they be able to exploit the additional...

    EA Press Release (PDF file): http://www.info.ea.com/news/pr/pr811.pdf First thought that popped into my head... a Wing Commander FPS! :cool: Okay, I know that it's very unlikely, but I remain ever the (delusional) optimist that an FPS set in the Wing Commander universe will be developed at...

    Just read this at TrekToday -- the original Variety article is here. One contributer at another site described this as the "Best. Trek. News. Ever." -- I wouldn't go that far, but it seems a lot more promising than the other prequel script mentioned on AICN a few times, which evidently...
