Let me guess:
25. Madden/ESPN
24. Tiger Woods
23. NCAA Football
22. NASCAR
21. NHL
20. FIFA/MLS
19. NBA Live
18. NBA Street
17. NFL Street
16. FIFA Street
15. Rugby
14. Fight Night
13. SSX
12. Medal of Honor
11. Need for Speed
10. Road Rash
9. Burnout
8. Sled Storm
7. Time Splitters
6. Battlefield
5. a Harry Potter game
4. a Batman game
3. a Superman game
2. a Lord of the Rings game
1. a James Bond game
Wow, that was easy! I was going to be sarcastic, including "sports" titles
such as bowling, bocce ball, figure skating, etc., but I didn't even have
room for any made-up games. And this doesn't take into account any new
series they develop...or purchase. I guess the point is, when you have as
many franchises as EA does, developing 25 next-generation games is no big
deal...

I am a mainstream gamer yet YOU are the one who doesn't watch this newsgroup
constantly. That is very interesting. You are going a long way towards
proving my "he thinks faster" point. I don't need to killfile you (although
I think you just heard the term and want to use it) because it would serve
no purpose. So go play your underground cutting-edge game that no one has
heard of and I will play my mainstream PSP or some other mainstream game
like Midnight Club.
