Slightly Mad Studios Says EA Tried to Screw Them Over
 

During an interview with SpotTheOzzie, Ian Bell of Slightly Mad Studios (Project CARS developer) claimed EA tried to f*ck them over. Apparently, EA tried to destroy his company and steal their technology after they were making arrangements to make another sequel for Need for Speed Shift. After being paid 1.5 million, EA decided to cancel the project. That's a pretty sketchy deal for a team that helped resurrect the franchise. EA has yet to comment. Ian Bell concluded that EA's guys are a**holes, that he has no respect for EA, that he'll never make a deal with them again, that they are horrible human beings and that they are corporate monsters.
