Fuck no, that's shitty management speak there. Urgh
Basicially if I'm reading between the lines correctly, he believes the gameplay that made them great (and still great to play now despite what the EA tard says) won't cut it today and they'll have to change it to make it meet current expectations.
I now hold slim hopes of any good remakes if it's developed internally by EA, as by what I read I suspect the games will be simplified and possibly include shit
current thinking methods like quick time events and the ilk.

EA, dare you fuck up Dungeon Keeper and I'm going to handle Dexter as an educational series.

Videogames cause violence!
I'll be upset if they do a number on Syndicate though.

Was Theme Hospital better than Theme Park? It's a long time since I last played either. I remember them both being pleasurable experiences, but Hospital seems to be the one that excites people.

It took 5 replies before Theme Hospital was mentioned. I'm appalled.
But yes, I'm increminally excited about a new Theme Hospital. I think I've still got the PS1 disc.
Edits: and continuing the flood.
I'd be dead if it wasn't for Theme Hospital.

Theme Park (the 3D incarnations) were terrible, IMO. RollerCoaster Tycoon is where it's at!
