Developer Stories #2: Bioware Mythic

Quote:
Of the different claims EA Louse asserts in the blog, perhaps the most noteworthy is the status of Star Wars: The Old Republic. According to Louse, more than $300 million has been spent on the game so far.
"And you know what they're most proud of? This is the kicker," the blog reads. "They are most proud of the sound. No seriously. Something like a 20Gig installation, and most of it is voiceover work. That's the best they have. The rest of the game is a joke. EA knows it and so does George Lucas, they're panicking, and so most of Mythic has already been cannibalized to work in Austin on it because they can't keep pushing back launch."

Louse then predicts, "
Old Republic will be one of the greatest failures in the history of MMOs from EA. Probably at the level of the Sims Online. We all know it too ..."

The EA Louse website has been taken down. But a backup of it exists here: http://web.archive.org/web/20110510011028/http://ealouse.wordpress.com/
