EA Boss Afraid Of Getting Sacked, Says Pachter

Increase the quality of their products, ESPECIALLY Ncaa and Madden. If EA had the same mindset that Apple does, their stock would increase. The mindset of, lets make the best product possible. I get the vibe that EA just tries to get by, add the fewest new enhancements, gamemodes, upgrades, etc... Just enough. Its all about the product quality which translates to the amount of appeal, there is a direct correlation and that is the answer to getting investors to buy in. Change the Mindset.

- Walk ON

A devoted Ncaa and Madden players since the beginning.

Madden and NCAA change rosters every game, the games itself dont really change until very 3 or 4 years really. How many Maddens did it take before they actually made the Superbowl in game more than just any regular season game with some logo midfield?

There is no sustainable business plan for that company. People are increasingly weary of EA products. People are interacting in communities now more than ever before, so these sentiments that were once believed to be isolated are now widespread and contagious. With no confidence among gamers, anybody that researches the industry before they buy will know they are a high risk, low reward prospect. They're also over-extended like General Electric, who had multiple products cross competing, and also over employed. They're gonna limp their way through the next decade until someone swoops in and takes them over, or crash and cannibalize their studios along the way.

Meh, fire him and see what happens, youll save money on salary.

I don't buy EA products anymore, I don't like the company for various reasons. I didn't think I would sink the company that deep though.

One problem...the fact that the game world is kind of in a recession is attributing to the lack of sales for new IPs short of something heavily promoted. So gamers kind of do it to themselves sometimes...
