EA shuts down Maxis

As if EA has to do anything else to make people hate them more, but hey, at least they found something they're good at!

I don't know how many of you guys read jackhammerslam's website "The 3rd Level", but I make a habit of checking it out at least every few weeks, and just saw this posted there.

I can't say that I've played any of the recent installments, or even had the desire too, but man I recall playing SimCity 2000 back in the 386/486 days until I couldn't hold my head up any longer.

The last Sim City release probably killed them... It was plagued with issues.

Still, had some great times playing Maxis sims no doubt!

I loved the SNES version of Sim City. Though I have to admit it's the only Maxis game I know of off the top of my head...

Well... after looking at the Wikipedia listing it's the only one I would have been interested in anyway.

EA have become a joke - buying developer companies only to scrap/cancel their works. They've done it time and time again. I have considered EA a swear/cuss word for a while now - i think it should be added to the forum filter ^_^

We can circumvent it then. "Hey did you hear about Eee Ayy?"

Yeah, speaking of pinball they also bought DICE, makers of some of the finest simulations around like Pinball Dreams and Fantasies. Unacceptable!
