I think Ill decide whether its groundbreaking or not, Advertising man.

What happened to that game EA were making with a couple of high profile Japanese lads ... whose names I forget. One of 'em may have been that Suda fellow.

They will probably show the Suda 51/Shinji Mikami/EA thing at E3 this year. If they don't, it has probably been scrapped.

This may seem like a load of nothing to most but it might well be worth getting excited about, EA have really transformed across the board in recent years. Introducing great new IPS, breathing new life into stale old IPS and acquiring some other good licenses and such like. They were always a major player in the industry anyway but it's nice to see that just because they have alot of the top sporting licenses doesn't mean they have to be content with that and are still looking to take on some of the genre-leading franchises and make more of a mark on the industry as a whole.

I don't think the name or any other details have been made available about the game yet but I could be wrong.
