Forza is their only racing game which is already solid and don't need Codemasters assistance. Codemasters will be better at EA with their NFS/Burnout which can use help more than ever.

cyberpunk Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Maybe EA will use them to revive the NFS Shift series? Burnout is long dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonCore Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Better than Take 2 grabbing them. So how long before you have to gamble to get Hamilton out of the card deck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would T2 and other big publishers. Make good games and generate money or die. 10 minutes ago, HundredProofSam said: Also what is Engadget smoking? SMS was sold last year for $30m.
