i agree that battlefield bad company 2 will be a big hit. I played the demo and its pretty good. The anti-CoD players will definitely buy it. Dante’s Inferno has gotten a lot of average reviews and bad press but i played the demo and it wasn’t that bad.

They’ve released some good games, and have some bigs ones coming up in the near future.

Think Battlefield: Bad Company 2, almost guaranteed success right there.

Madden is a big moneymaker for EA year after year. The new medal of honor looks very good and should boost some sales for EA. And don’t forget Bad Company 2 just around corner demo was awesome and with BC2 and MOH EA is poised to rake in some serious cash from FPS market. Dante’s Inferno looks superb and should boost some sales soon and EA does a good job advertising their games such as Mass Effect 2, Dante’s Inferno, Madden and all other sports game Sony should look at EA and try spending some ad revenue on their exclusives on par with EA. EA cutting back on number of titles but quality should increase along with that reduction.

Pachter is like a Captain Obvious. No one publisher/developer will produce winners all the time.

EA may have missed the mark with some games, and other games were more successful.

I think EA will do fine this year.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 is due out soon, another Madden, Tiger Woods, Skate 3. Possibly Mirror’s Edge 2, another Medal of Honor perhaps?
