Yeah and your company is one of the worst at this

The video game executive criticized the industry for rolling out sequels to new games that add little from the previous version.

"For the most part, the industry has been rinse-and-repeat," he was quoted as saying. "There's been lots of product that looked like last year's product, that looked a lot like the year before."

EA is pro at this stuff.

as for medal of honor kind of stuff...
uhm... well the first one was good. then they released loads of mission packs. then they just renamed it into battlefield and continued their cloning activities.

too bad they are not the only ones doing this kind of business. for example the grand theft auto series developed by rockstar. the sad thing is - ppl buy that stuff. ppl love that stuff...
dunno why.

Medal of Honor, The Sims, any sports game, the LOTR games. Their entire company is based on churning out sequels with few new innovations that typically just make the game more complex.


True, but Halo's added things with each subsequent sequel.

Only been one so far :(

He's kinda right, really. I mean he's being a total hypocrite, but that is kind of the way things go. Hopefully someone company can revolutionize the gaming industry and give us a bit more variance between sequels.

Shut the feck up, EA. Your games suck.
