Weird choice to reboot the MySims series, but as long as it's not a live service I'll check it out.

Back in the day would lead me to believe it's better 360/PS3. So that would leave what?

The two biggest IP they have that need a hard reboot are Command & Conquer and Sim City.

The biggest classic GaaS IP they have is Ultima.

Burnout, SSX, SimCity, Medal of Honor, Mirror's Edge, Skate, Fight Night, Command & Conquer, Mercenaries, Army of Two, or Deer Hunter.

Yes, I looked at the wiki page for EA franchises.

Give me General Chaos, Mutant League, NBA Street, Road Rash or any of the other great suggestions people have mentioned above.

Knowing EA though it is going to be some dumb shit like James Pond or B.O.B

I'll honestly be surprised if its not Road Rash. The game is tailor made for this multiplayer gaming world we live in.
I mean can you imagine A-B 20 player races with weapons?, too good.

Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.

Imagine the loot box options for helmets, bikes, leathers, chains and different types of 2 x 4 oak, birch or mahogany.

Yep, but they only do it because people buy it.
I mean wasnt it something like 70% of gaming revenue last year was from MTX?.
Indeed. But whatever they are bringing back isn’t a love in for the fans it’s a realisation from a Teams meeting that they can monetise something else that loyal fans of the soon to be announced series will no doubt pony up for.

Syndicate?

It's Syndicate, right?

There were four games - Syndicate, Syndicate Plus, Syndicate : American Revolt, and Syndicate Wars.

Everyone loved those games, so it must be Syndicate :)
Oh man, I totally forgot that Starbreeze rebooted Syndicate not too long ago... (although 2012 would now technically be considered "long ago")

Archon? Mail Order Monsters? Pinball Construction Set? Adventure Construction Set? Racing Destruction Set? Realm of Impossibilty? Hard Hat Mack? Populous?

I think the budget of Syndicate 2012 and the fact it has been withdrawn from download sites shows how much faith they had in that.

What’s “back in the day?”

On the scale of Westwood Studios to Fortnite derpy dances, what’s the generational “back in the day” usage?
