360 - Mirror's Edge - EA On Why Saboteur, Dragon Age Isn't This Year's Dead Space, Mirror's Edge Dead Space and Mirror's Edge were poised as massive, blockbuster new franchises for Electronic Arts last year, but while both were mostly critical successes (though Mirror's Edge nicely divided people), neither were the multi-million sellers they'd been pegged as. During the Pacific Crest 11th Annual Technology Leadership Forum, EA CFO Eric Brown was asked a tough question -- are Saboteur and Dragon Age: Origins this year's Dead Space and Mirror's Edge?

"Looking at the two franchises, we have more modest expectations for Saboteur," explained Brown. "It's a version one of that IP, kind of an open world set in circa early 1940s Paris. We've kind of set our expectations accordingly for that title, so that's probably one difference versus where we were, say, 12 months ago."

360 - Mirror's Edge - EA and DICE on new IP risk Gamezine: Releasing a new intellectual property comes with a significant amount of risk management. After Mirror's Edge didn't get the reception DICE might have hoped for, the developer and their publisher EA discuss whether it's worth taking the risk again.

Lars Gustavsson, DICE's creative director, spoke of balancing execution and innovation at the 2009 DICE summit.

Perfectly executing previous concepts can result in excellent games and excellent sales; just look at the Call of Duty series. But there also needs to be innovation for the games industry to stay fresh.

DICE's latest video game, Mirror's Edge, took a huge risk by introducing the platforming genre to the first-person view in addition to presenting a fresh art direction. Gustavsson personally thinks that the game's innovation won out over risk management, but he does admit that in this economic climate the developer's priorities might need to change.
