It's important to diffarentiate between a publisher and a developer. EA is both, and not every game with the EA logo on it is both developed and published by EA. Personaly I feel that EA the Publisher is anoying because it follows a very safe business model, it makes safe, franchise and mass apeal games. A neiche in which Renegade does not fit. Sadly westood as a developer had the 'It'll be done when it's done 'attitude. Which is not a very reliable attitude for a publisher like EA. Saddly in Westwoods case they took a bit too long. Renegade was in development for a hell of a long time. Too long, and the dev cost becomes just too much too recoup. I've been a huge fan of the CnC series since they first came out, but there was just no way they were going to be competative. Anyone who followed the CnC series knows the frustration of waiting for the next instalment to come out. Tho Generals just shouldn't be a CnC title. it's got nothing to do with the story, it's just trying to mooch off the brand name.
