      The team behind the only good Mass Effect game was disbanded almost immediately after its release. I had no hope for the new one.

      Fret not, anything they aren’t going to actively milk will likely be sold off to try and pay back the $20 billion dollar loan they took to make this purchase.

        As far as i understand this deal. No property will be sold. EA will be on the hook for the 20b just like ToysRus. EA is getting nuked and a new name and face but the ip is not going anywhere.

          They’ll just sit on some of those titles that were never developed any further. Like Command and Conquer.
