 "EA Boss Loves Scary Games")
EA’s fascination with horror games goes back a long way. In recent times, that relation has been cemented by the success of the Dead Space franchise. And now with Grasshopper Manufacture’s survival action, Shadows of the Damned, it seems EA have heavily invested in this genre.

In fact Visceral Games, developers of the Dead Space 2 are burning the midnight oil coming up with something huge for Dead Space 3. In addition to that, they’re even working on new IPs, which obviously weren’t revealed by him.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
