A lot of us wanted to believe that the current economic climate wouldn't impact the gaming industry too much. And where this move to redistribute EA Casual into the rest of the company doesn't seem to extend from the economical woes, EA is feeling the financial pinch. It recently cut 6% of their work force and outsourced more of its jobs.
Well, there's not much else to say here. EA Casual's gem will move from red to green once he makes out with the neighbor in the hot tub, and pees somewhere other than the kitchen floor. Oh EA Casual your foibles are so endearing.
