Why do I get the feeling that if you were to enter the executive offices of EA you'd see this?

Hehe. I see that, but I think it's from sleep deprivation.

We should really change the name of the Industry forum from "Microsoft buys the world" to "EA buys the world"

On a slightly sadder note. If I had spent all my money on EA shares 2 weeks ago, I'd be really happy right now.

Just mimic Martha Stuart and do some insider trading. Easy money... and remember, it's not illegal unless you get caught and convicted.

We have a monopoly on the desktop so why not on games as well? :P

Um, I received my Walmart internet kit for the low price of $9.94/month in the mail today. It came in a nice big hard plastic container... the kind that will be around in 100,000,000,000 years...

Interestingly, I didn't ask for it. I didn't want it.

Who's your daddy?
