This Happens in all walks of life not just The Gaming Industry... "So I say to you, disgruntled spouse, are you prepared for your husband to lose his job to talented Russian, Indian and Chinese engineers when EA re-evaluates the costs of complying with what you are suggesting...." I SAY...IN A FREAKIN HEART BEAT.... There are other Jobs out there...Especially in the Gaming Industry and yes a Family is way more important then a GAME... I personally feel that the employee's who work on the game should get a Piece of the PIE in Royalties too(Before you all start saying things about COSTS...In order to make money you have to spend Money)...WHY you ask Because they are the ones who made the game not the companies...And it is a proven FACT that if you treat your Employee's with respect and Followed the Law...Production goes up and Money is made by all... I am also sure it is not just EA who use's these types of Practices... Remember it all comes out in the end..We all get judged...
