Telltale Games

Yes. Yes they are. And it's free-to-play, so we can see how they cock it up for nothing.

EDIT: Truth in fiction.

Did anyone ever try that F2P Command and Conquer thing that "Bioware" did? I know I sure didn't!

Origin Systems should be among the dead... after all, EA ~~raped~~also used the name for their new DRM shittyshit.

There is no way this is going to end well.

The first challenge will be getting Origin on your harddrive without hating yourself forever for it.

Oh my god, we need to alert the Spoony One.

Secret Fawful · 07/20/2012, 04:54 pm

Oh, he knows. He's pissed.

Ringed Raygun · 07/20/2012, 06:15 pm

Well, I figured as much.

Maybe Bioware, after its inevitable death at the hands of EA, will go the way of Telltale or Obsidian and make a whole new company comprised of disgruntled former members dedicated to making fine games based on and inspired by their former licenses.

Also, I wonder what Richard Garriott thinks of this mess?

I'll never purchase or play an EA product, but I just wanted to say that the 2nd panel of that comic almost brought a tear to my eye. So many great companies wasted.

Agreed. The Saboteur would've been so much better if Pandemic were given the time to polish it more. Just plain unfortunate -- the game had potential to be so much more . . . exciting.

Anyway, though, I won't go on about that.

Shadowknight1 · 07/20/2012, 06:51 pm

Wow...I'm surprised at the lack of this joke, so I must(in spite of myself) make it.

Yay, so Bioware can f#*% up ANOTHER ENDING!!!

*Darth Marsden* · 07/20/2012, 10:00 pm

Ah, but it's an MMO. It Never Ends.

Tell that to Star Wars Galaxies.

Pants sitting alone in a server talking to imaginary players and sobbing gently to himself while rocking in his chair still counts as a player, right?
