EA’s vice president of corporate communications, Jeff Brown, has responded to the recent comments made by Activision CEO Bobby Kotick, who slated the publisher by saying it “did a very good job of taking the soul out of a lot of the studios it acquired”.
”The truth is, everyone laughed,” Jeff Brown told Newsweek’s Level up and continued with “It’s too early to declare victory but if you talk to people like Patrick Soderlund at dice in Stockholm, Mark Jacobs at Mythic in Virginia or Josh Resnick at Pandemic - they’ll probably tell you that it’s working. They get a lot of resources and creative freedom. That freedom has already contributed new start-ups like Dead Space, Mirror’s Edge and Boom Blox and there’s a lot of others to be announced soon.”
