An open letter to E.A

Dear E.A people. I would like to say first of all thank you for publishing the Bioware games such as Mass Effect 2. As a PS3 owner I was worried that I wouldn't get to play it after selling my 360 a few years ago but you managed to sort that out for me so thanks again. Now onto the meat of this letter/post, I was wondering if you could maybe do me a favor and bring back Road Rash. Please? I know I don't exactly have a lot of pull in this industry (ok so I have exactly no pull at all) but I would really like you guys to announce it at E3 or something. It,s not like it would be hard for you to make, I mean you have Criterion there and they have some practice with bikes after that DLC came out for Burnout Paradise so your half way there already. You could use the leveling up system and map layout from Need for Speed Hot Pursuit, earning money after each race to get the new bikes etc, you could even build in some kind of gang system when if your a member of one group then members of another would be after you more so than normal. Its all in place really, you would just need to put a little bit of time in and its sorted. Its easy money if you think about it, I mean I know you guys are all about the money am I right? 


I guess if that's to much to ask then a remake of Haunting staring Poulterguy would suit me just fine too. In fact now that I think about it you could use the Sims 3 engine for that, moving to bigger and better houses each time you clear the family out. Instead of picking what items to buy from a menu like you do in the Sims you could use that same menu to pick what item in the room you will possess. I'm not quite sure how you could recreate the underground bits but hey, your smart guys I'm sure you could think of something. Any how that's all from me for now, if I think of any more of your classic games that I would like you to remake I,ll be sure to let you know, I mean I'm sure one of your top dogs has read this..... right??


For all of you non E.A guys reading this, and I'm guessing that's all of you, then post your comments about what gaming franchises you would like to see resurrected. Also feel free to e,mail me at deejaypeeblog@gmail.com or add me on the psn at Davidp1985. Thanks for reading and happy gaming!
