    'Gears of War brings nothing in terms of innovation' - Xbox 360

    General Manager of EA Montreal, Alain Tascan feels as though Gears of War has been over-hyped. Quite funny, when you find out he hasn’t even played it yet.

    This is especially hypocritical coming from EA who innovate perhaps once in a blue moon and even then. Perhaps EA should be reminded that innovation isn't churning out two slightly different copies of FIFA (et al) every year.

    The Pillars of Britain, Foundations of the Reich, Cracks in the Pillars.

    I'm still trying to find a game EA ARE original on in the last two years (and not made by an outside developer that EA have bought)
