However, he's not ready to talk smack about the gaming industry juggernaut that forced the changes upon his studio -- Jacobs explained, "Over my 23 years of making games professionally I have refrained from attacking the competition, former and/or current partners, other game developers," and so on. You're a stronger man than us, Mr. Jacobs.

Persians aren't black. I know, I am one.

Saihna, I know that and I'm not Persian (or is that Iranian?(if you're Iranian how are you commenting, isn't your internetz blocked?)).
We've all played Prince of Persia you know.
Saihna @ Jun 26th 2009 8:42PM
Just because i'm Persian doesn't mean i live there.

Good man. Classy. Everyone knows EA is shit, no need to hurt your name iterating what everyone already knows.

While the man may be classy, this doesn't change the fact the he was responsible for a game that promised the world and failed to deliver. As someone who has played multiple MMOs, WAR failed to deliver meaningful improvements to the genre and I soon left it for LOTRO, a far better game developed by a better company

the game was rushed out before it was ready ie the cut of so much right before it came out and yes a lot was added back it dose not change that fact
BUT he was a stand up guy WAR was a good game just need more testing
the fact that servers crashed every city raid proved that

EA's recent financial woes speak for themselves. EA is clueless!
Jrinswand @ Jun 26th 2009 7:33PM
This post still doesn't really explain anything. I don't know why he left now any more than I did a few minutes ago.
Saihna @ Jun 26th 2009 8:43PM
Oh, and Persian is like a prettier way to say Iranian.
Saihna @ Jun 26th 2009 8:43PM
