Re:Good for EA! (Score 1)

The only thing that disappoints me in this move is the lack of certainty that we'll have if the game does fail. You said that a sales drop in "The Sims" would indicate that this is a bad business move, but it could also be the public's lack of interest in the franchise, bad game design, or in the case of "The Sims Online", rampant grief players.

I do agree that this use of product placement is conducive to a wonderful bottom line for the company, and its investors. How I feel about that personally is another matter...

Now I'm waiting to see McDonalds take their "Monopoly" game pieces online, inside the "Sims Online".
