EA Faced With Another Employee Lawsuit

Posted by Zonk on from the getting-old dept.

GamesIndustry.biz has the news that EA has been slapped with another employee-filed lawsuit. He's part of the engineering staff, and feels unfairly targeted by the "creative staff" laws in CA. From the article: "...in the midst of a storm of unwanted publicity about EA's employment practices, and provoked a response from the firm's vice president of human resources, Rusty Reuff, who admitted that 'as much as I don't like what's been said about our company and our industry, I recognize that at the heart of the matter is a core truth.'"

    to name just a few, are all sports games and are all developped internally at EA.

    As for 5 sports games a year, your count is quite inexact (btw the 'street' games are totally different from their 'serious' counterpart, both from gameplay and art perspectives - you should try them and stop talking out of your ass):

    - Madden
    - FIFA
    - NBA
    - MVP
    - Fight Night
    - Tiger Woods Golf
    - NHL
    - FIFA Street
    - NBA Street (if you haven't tried vol'3 you are missing something)
    - NFL Street
