It was just a matter of time before Electronic Arts set the Star Wars Battlefront season pass free. Once the sequel is out in mid-November, most people will move on, and it's hard to imagine anyone's paying for the pass this late into the g...

It has been quite the tumultuous year for Mass Effect. The release of Andromeda was met with a tepid reception that the series isn't used to. Then it came out that the majority of the game was made in the final 18 months and that the d...

Fe is one of those games whose name always escapes me, but as soon as I saw today's trailer with the Electronic Arts logo, it came back to me. This is a platforming adventure title from Zombie Vikings and Stick it to The Man developer Zoink...

It astounds me how each new Sims game releases missing practically all of the features from the previous installment's expansion packs. Sure, there may be some fundamental changes to the structure of the game (Sims 2 introduced aging and 3 ...

EA and DICE aren't waiting until they're finished with Battlefield 1's four expansion packs to come out with a "game of the year"-style bundle package. It goes by the name of Battlefield 1: Revolution, and it's available today for $60 on PC...

We've seen it all before. A big publisher sticks one toe into a Nintendo platform (in this case, the Switch), and says "well everything hinges on this one game," a project that's usually a port. In EA's case, it's FIFA 18. EA has been even ...

The Specialization system is set to return in EA's Battlefield 1, allowing combatants to acquire skill-boosting perks when out on the front line, engaging in digital warfare. Specializations, for those less-inclined, are effects and abiliti...

It's no secret that Titanfall 2 faced tough competition when it released last October. Respawn Entertainment has been great about delivering free content updates ever since -- we just got a co-op horde mode! -- and that has left fans wonder...

This is a question I've had stuck in my mind recently, but can't quite put my finger on the exact reasons behind it, as there are a number of them that I'll go over. As someone who considers themselves an extreme digital influencer, growing...

Recently BioWare have made a lot of headlines. First, Mass Effect lead Casey Hudson returned to the fold after the departure of Aaryn Flynn. Then, sadly, we learned yesterday of the passing of long-time developer Corey Gaspur. This morning ...

Titanfall 2 is now a part of EA Access and Origin Access, as promised. It's freely playable for members. Assuming you've held onto your subscription (or are thinking of trialing it one of these days), this game's cool. You should take the t...

Mass Effect: Andromeda has had a tough year. It launched to a tepid reception from both consumers and critics. It had technical and tonal issues. Word got out that there was a very strained development process. It was enough that EA ev...

As familiar as Need for Speed Payback looks -- it's been described as "Need for Speed filtered through the lens of a Hollywood blockbuster" -- I might still be up for it. There's nothing inherently wrong with some mindless action now and ag...

[Update: A representative from EA has told us that the standard edition will be priced at $40 and that the deluxe edition will be priced at $50.] Premature retailer listings strike again! Earlier this week, we had a strong hunch that ...

Every year, people have the opportunity to disappear off the face of the Earth, never to return (probably) by entering the annual Edmonton Corn Maze. This year, BioWare's local development studio took the opportunity to craft the maze of ma...

The Sims' neighborhood seems set to grow a bit this fall. It seems as if the most recent Sims game is going to break free of its PC-only status and expand to Xbox One. This news comes via a product listing for The Sims 4 on Micros...

BioWare Canada is going through some major personnel changes in the immediate future. The role of general manager is getting a shakeup as the studio's de facto head is leaving and a familiar face is returning. In two separate posts on BioWa...

Respawn has done a commendable job supporting Titanfall 2 with free content updates. I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll feel obligated to say it again. But for folks who aren't at least partially invested in the PvP, it can be tough to ...

American McGee is frustrated. He's powerless to create another Alice game even though he wants to. Making matters worse, the impassioned fans of the series are relentless in their questioning about when they'll get another sequel -- ag...

Players still enjoying EA's Star Wars: Battlefront can bag themselves some lovely double XP whilst gunning it out in the online sci-fi shooter.The points boost, which has already been rolled out in-game, applies across all modes and maps. T...

Mass Effect: Andromeda might have a ton of issues, but now you can judge the game for yourself in a fairly sizable 10 hour demo across the PC, PS4, and Xbox One platforms. Previously it was on EA's Access/Origin program, but now everyo...

I don't remember the last time I even thought about The Lord of the Rings Online, but apparently the game has remained popular enough over the last 10 years to still get new content. While the game has stayed true to the geography of the no...

The last quarter of 2017 will be an inescapable black hole of Star Wars. Mimicking 2015, there's a major motion picture in December, and a Battlefront game in November. (Actually, the game releases on the same day, November 17.) And, a...

On July 6, BioWare released a new update for the PC version of Mass Effect: Andromeda. The release notes at the time indicated that the patch was going to focus primarily on improving facial animations and stability, along with numerous oth...

In the coming months, EA Access and Origin Access subscribers will be able to play two of the publisher's high-profile (and generally well-liked) 2016 games -- Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 -- as part of the $5-per-month service. They're co...
