Future of EA and Groening

I read some disturbing news today.

Matt is teaming up with TinyCo to produce the futurama game?

Where did you go wrong EA? I wanted futurama in TSTO. I'm not happy with TinyCo products. *Sigh.

Maybe with Matt's influence they'll do a better job.

Maybe there's better stipulations on the new game. More control for Groeing.

That's a great point. I'm sure his team has a ton of lessons learned from TSTO.

groening is still in contract with ea. you see, all the stuff on tsto has his signature on (every single splashscreen too) don't worry he's not done with the game. including all character portraits and items are too (see facebook posts)

dont know how the gameplay will be but they said they are releasing weekly content and have original writers/voices joining so at least some original content

Still sad. Would like some new New York buildings in SF of KL or new level.

Futurama started on Fox. It was on there for the first 4 seasons before going to Comedy Central.

Yes, I know...thats why I said "back on". My point was that I do not think the rights to the show are handled the same, and Groening has worked with more than one corporate entity.

I was really excited about the first Futurama game, to find out it was just some type of "candy crush" game. So I would say it can only get better now.

not by much since tiny*greedy*co is involved

Futurama: Game of Drones is actually really fun. A lot of it is voiced and funny. It has a story line that you can opt out of ( I have ). Fun graphics. Challenging puzzles. Battles with characters. It's fun to play while watching Netflix and relaxing. It's by Wooga in case anyone is wondering. I don't play a lot of games, but I like this one.

If you don't play it, somebody else will.

Gotta be worth a shot, get in at the start on one of these games instead of jealously looking at the forums over what you've missed the four and a half years before you started playing

It will be weekly updates for this

Got excited until I saw the "Tinyco" label
Too bad, Futurama would have made a cool game for mobile.

It already is on mobile.....Game of Drones.
It's a Candy Crush ripoff, but it has an amusing storyline, but it gets old and repetitive very quickly.
