I think their only titles currently not either failing horribly or being hated by all and sundry are their diminishing-returns sports franchises and Battlefield, so they're probably trying to abuse that supreme court ruling that games are a form of protected speech to save some money.

That game was not Army of Two. That game lacks just about everything that makes AOT. Someone in EA needs to get kneecapped badly.
