Id even take Ubisoft over EA as a publisher. They're contracted until 2020, and aside from this debacle, EA has definitely been making them money with the Star Wars brand. It may depend on how well they recover from this, but I doubt this alone is going to be enough to keep them from being able to renew the contract. There's probably something in the contract that allows Disney to back out if EA fucks up this badly. I kind of doubt it. If EA were actually causing monetary damages to the brand as a whole, maybe, but screwing up one video game isn't grounds for breaking a contract. This whole situation is going to do nothing to SW movie or merchandise sales, just make people less willing to trust EA with future Star Wars games. --- This is my signature.
