Mark Jacobs says EA wanted to kill UO, but he saved it

Mark also told me that he invented the internet, right after he parted the Red Sea.

Do people still play at OSI? I mean UO shard emulation is pretty much perfected.

Today is all about EA's other big announcement, KOTOR Online!!!!!!!!!

Massively, have you got special coverage for us????

Mark told EA to buy up Bioware btw, so thank Mark.

Every time this guy opens his mouth he looks like more and more of an idiot. Bordering on Brad McQuaid levels here.

Yet, if he didn't say anything, the cynical, irrate posters like the above would castrate him.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I'm glad he speaks his mind and could care less about coddeling a bunch of whinning, self ritgous douche bags like most of the mmo community. 90% of us are dumb ass, lifeless vags.

Thanks god I'm in the 10% of "normal, emotionaly balanced, and objective humans.

The thing is, if someone who was a competitor of yours spouted off lies and tried to badmouth your product would you attack back or just ignore it where people would think it is true? If you say ignore it, you are most likely lying as anyone who is outspoken enough to flame someone on a forum is damn sure gonna do so if they are personally attacked at their job or livelihood. You can think what you want about the guy but bottom line he is in this for the gamers and not making his company so filthy rich that they think they don't have to listen to the players anymore.

Blizzard is far due for a reality check as yes they may be super successful in foreign countries who also support the new kids on the block but here in America people are leaving WoW for greener pastures. Hence, the pot shot at a company sponsored by the biggest gaming name in the business EA. Mark just did what 99.9% of us all would do and backed his game. Shame on Blizzard for publicly attacking Mythic and shame on anyoen who doesn't think Mythic is allowed to defend its position.
