But how can EA claim that the DC had no userbase- when they were one of the only developers supporting the GameCube in the last year or two. I love my GameCube, but bugger all games came out for it. EA was the only one intent on giving it the PS2 and Xbox games...problem was most (if not all) were crap. I think Ubisoft was one of the other few companies, who supported with good games- with SplinterCell and RainbowSix - but always released months after the Xbox and PS2 versions. I think EA could be one of the worst things to happen to the gaming world- except their PC division. For some reason I think they make some damn good PC titles. -Well I didn’t know any of that- but it doiesn’t suprise me.

We could possibly swing to allow that. If you like, PM me in the forums about it. I think it would be good to get some views of our readers out. -Also I have to ask. What do you mean when you say EA said the 'numbers on the DC made no sense'. What numbers? Submit an article you say?

I think it was the fact that they needed eachother in a mutal allance on what the games industry was like at the time,the megadrive era. EA for example were forced by Sega to get a license when EA were actually making illegal games for the system. But the whole hate thing stems from what happened to the saturn and EA and sega fell out over it. it came to a head during the DC era when EA refused to support it because they said the numbers on DC don't make sense. When the DC passed the numbers to warrant EA suport they came up with that excuse. BTW when sega went third party a website(Segaweb i think) asked other developers about what they thought about sega going TP. Capcom said they were sad about the situation because they had a new competitor but wished them luck. EA on the other hand said they were desperate and made fun of them. EA has been asking for a kicking from sega for a while now.But if you allow me to submit an article to this site i'll go into more detail... Well that’s even debatable.

They used to be pretty good 'mates' back in the Saturn and Megadrive days. I remember EA was one of the few companies that stuck it out with the Saturn throughout its life- realising some pretty fun racing and sports titles.... Still I'm glad that Sega didn't cave about the sports things- I'd rather still be playing Extreme Sports on the Dreamcast than another Madden title, or playing Virtua Striker 2 over any FIFA game.

You have to scroll down (past the unsightly pictures) and there it is. I wonder if she is trying to boost the hits by masquerading as a gaming site? Or maybe she just really likes Seganerds? (that sounds more likely) :) Lol- I actually just clicked on her link again to check something- At the risk of catching a virus or haviong the Feds bust down my door (that’s what I’m willing to risk for this site though ;) )
