EA is in bigger trouble than people think.
Sales of annual sports game updates has started falling flat over the years due to franchise overload... and some of their best games of the year (read: Dead Space) didn't do as well as they should.
So there you have it. The more IPs a company holds, the more risk they have in their portfolio. They'd be better off if they were a smaller company with one or two good IPs to manage.
I'm sure there'll be more layoffs in the industry and closures to compliment the half dozen or so that have folded recently.
