EA Says No To A New Battlefront Game, And PlayStation Home Returns! - The Home of Play Podcast ep.90

The Home of Play: A PlayStation Podcast

Happy Monday Everyone!

This week we found out that the PlayStation Home has returned from the grave, thanks to some very special fans. EA sadly doesn't seem to have a lot to be thankful for this week, as information has slipped that EA refuses to allow DICE to take another crack at a Battlefront game. EA Also looses some key creatives, which one can assume is due to mismanagement of it's development teams. Resident Evil Village take center stage at the Golden Joystick awards, with many other great games also receiving well deserved accolades. Plenty of new to get to this week, so lets just get into it!
