Well, condolences to all the people at Ghost Games that are about to get clapped. I don't see many ways where this doesn't end with Codemasters making a game that has the NFS name thrown on it, and getting other studios bushed it reassigned in the process.

100m max I would spend on them.

EA games buying out other companies is like vince mcmahon signing WCW wrestlers in the 00s

When I was young this guy across the street from me was a graphic designer for codemasters


I was hyped he invited me over to look at his stuff thought I was about to see some exclusive shyt then realised he just drew the cones in the rally games


He showed me some cool shyt that he worked on himself though

I was really starting to get into F1 this year too because of how fun the game is. This is horrible news

Codemasters own quite a few studios. Plus they got that F1 license

Codemasters is a really small company. This is a huge W for them as an organization to have such an influx of cash through. On the other hand, we know how EA gets down. They write the checks but everything else is a shytshow.

I can't help but think Codies' will be consolidating GRID and DIRT into one big open world multi-platform Forza Horizon type game. There's huge potential there, and of course a lot of ways you can continue to charge people for content for years.

Wonder how this will affect the F1 games. 2021 is probably too far into development right now but 2022 will have all the first EA changes. I could see them using Frostbite for cinematics and shyt.

Open world Need for Speed built by Codies that basically combines DIRT/GRID gameplay, with car packs using tie ins from the F1 games and the other EA published games. You could milk that for years

2023: Breaking News, Code Breaker is now being absorbed by EA Harlem and EA Rancho Cucamonga
