“Welcome to the big leagues Eric. I know you’re new in the job but someone should have told you this is an competitive industry. You’ve got every reason to be nervous. Last year Activision had a 90 share in the shooter category. This year, Battlefield 3 is going to take you down to 60 or 70. At that rate, you’ll be out of the category in 2-3 years. If you don’t believe me, go to the store and try to buy a copy of Guitar Hero or Tony Hawk.” – Jeff Brown, EA corporate communications boss to IndustryGamers regarding Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg’s gamescom keynote.
My Opinion: Comments likes these make me feel like not supporting Battlefield 3. So childish and uncalled for.
sigh…….. EA are going back to their old ways!
I can’t stand it.
