    lol, imagine seeing you’re “a random EA employee”

    Glad the article went on to mention them.

      All it takes is to mention them, but alas, majority of the time its always a generic statement or a statement describing their age.

    What strikes me the most is how its a multibillion dollar company but a large part of the work was seemingly done by staff in their free time and by modders. Its seems like EA itself did the bare minimum.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if they were told “you can do this but it can’t cost us anything and its in your own time”.

      More likely, it’s in their contracts that anything they come up with belongs to the company, even if they did it at home, on their own time.

    EA did something good?

    And all of the 90s artists agreed to relicense the Road Rash soundtrack music??

    I like this feeling, and I can’t wait to try the Road Rash remaster.

    It’s this why I saw the entire wing Commander library for sale on steam? I played the first two and privateer in my old 486, but had to tinker with config.sys and autoexec.bat to clear enough cache and there was no way I could stretch to to play #3

    Some of those later ones were like movies with meson drivers mixed in. Mark Hamil, John rhys-davies? I think I remember Christopher Walken giving me friend-or-foe radar at some point?
