Speaking of developers, I know where EA's offices are here in Brisbane.
Maybe I could get an interview for PALGN....  _________________

I remember seeing EA's place when i went to queensland, it was like a normal road, and there was a big lit up sign with a couple of other companies on it, then there was
EA
Electronic arts
It was quite a shock to me :O Never seen a game development place before  _________________

It's all due to the WWE license.

THQ games are always plagued with dodgey graphics and they milk every licence for everything they can get. Every now and then they have something that shines through with awesome gameplay. Nothing so far for next gen consoles. _________________ Large Cheese Pizza, Hold the Thrush.
