It looks like it has potential EA’s conference has been…weird, to say the least. We got a hugeStar Warsreveal in a really strange fireside chat format, footage of severalgreatlooking indies, and a bunch of marketing nonsense. But EA of course finished things up withAnthem, its prized would-beDestiny-killer, and it’s still looking pretty impressive.
