    @ gingo, Well remeber that EA isn't the biggest company anymore, but I believe that Take-two will get bigger than EA

    Either way, EA needs to start buckling down and giving us quality.  Because I am sure a majority of people agree, the only reason we still buy their sports games, is because we have no other choice.

    Pretty much, everyone got tired of EA doing as it pleases in the industry that other companies what to essentially loosen their hold on it. EA has competition of which it does not want but we need.

    The idea that 2K is still funding new studios lends credibility to the thought that they WONT be selling R* off to EA anytime soon.
