It is the reboot idjit. Not a sequel to anything. From the Official Site The team has spent a lot of time re-evaluating every aspect of the game and making it a new experience. This is not a sequel, this is not Mirror's Edge 2. We have landed on a vision that honors the first game � pushing the boundaries of first person movement and diving deeper into the story behind our heroine Faith � but also brings a lot of great new, interesting gameplay and features to the experience for our players.

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	Because it wouldn't be a fucking EA game without some kind of controversy would it. tl;dr, EA be bribing Reddit moderators with Alpha access and stuff in exchange for deleting negative comments about Battlefront.

The game will sell like hotcakes either way with the movie coming out and people seemed to like the demo for the most part. I thought the demo was sort of fun, and I'm not really a Star Wars kind of guy. Though I might consider buying it off someone if it came down to $30.

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	Yeah that's what I find odd about this whole thing, the negative presence around this game isn't even all that strong. They literally could've just left Reddit as is and they would be no worse off.

Raining on your parade with a truckload of awkward awesomeness. Posts: 4,950 Group: Elite Member #70 Joined: November 11, 2009	EA COO Peter Moore is being a piece of shit again, calling EA's release catalogue for 2017 "an embarrassment of riches."

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	The word "embarrassment" literally could not have been chosen better. It's embarrasing that EA somehow still makes money despite being the industry's go-to laughing stock, and the more I read of this page the more I find myself at a loss for words. Like... Quote: Mirrors Edge: Catalyst has been pushed back from its initial FY16 release date to FY17, and will join Mass Effect: Andromeda, Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 and a new games in the Battlefield and Titanfall franchises. Garden Warfare Two? Who even played the first one? Quote: Most of these games we already sort of new were coming, with the new Battlefield being the only (albeit, slight) surprise. All EA said of the title was that it would be a military-style game. NAH YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY Quote: Earlier in the year, EA stated that Star Wars Battlefront sequels were already in the works, and the first game's season pass is due to come out in the first half of 2016. SEQUELS? PLURAL? THEY'RE ALREADY MAKING MULTIPLE SEQUELS BEFORE THE FUCKING DLC IS OUT? WHO KEEPS BUYING INTO THIS SHIT???

Fabulous Homosexual Posts: 6,262 Group: Elite Member #59 Joined: November 9, 2009	Mass Effect: Andromeda was already delayed? Oh well, I can wait. EDIT: Apparently Q4 2016 is part of their 2017 fiscal year. Edited by Arem, Dec 8 2015, 02:36 PM.
	--- Quote: Blacklightning Nov 14 2011, 02:48 AM I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms. But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit. game - gun = gay game + gun = -gay game + gun + Arem = ??? Founder of #TeamArem

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	Oh hey, somehow EA has behaved well enough for this thread to slip back four pages. Let's fix that. tl;dr, EA bans the entire country of Myanmar from using Origin without warning, and refuses to refund any of their existing users there from purchases they made prior. In their defense, they're apparently forced to block access in accordance with US law, but it still doesn't explain why they're not offering money back or even a fucking apology.

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	In case you somehow needed more indication that preorder / special edition culture is completely fucked, here's a collector's edition of Mass Effect: Andromeda that doesn't even include a copy of the fucking game.
