EA Puts White Council On Ice


Speaking yesterday, EA CFO Warren Jenson said "The Lord of the Rings product [ie White Council] is back in development in terms of being on hold", and that EA were "looking at the creative positioning and feature set on the Lord of the Rings franchise".

Which is douche-speak for "this game is long gone". EA, you mystify me. You churned out half a dozen average-to-awful games based on this storied franchise over the past five years and were happy to rake in the bucks, but you can this? White Council was the first and only LotR game to not only sound genuinely promising, but actually look like delivering the kind of experience LotR fans might actually have identified with.

I know where you can creatively position your feature set, Jenson.
