Are you kidding? This is the best name ever. Now we get to see official statements and legalese that has to have the words Stupid Fun Club in it. This is going to be hilarious to read in the future.vivaldiscool said:
Will Wright Leaves EA
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
For those of you that don't know.. Stupid Fun Club has been around for years. They usually do silly useless inventions with no practicality (like remote controlled couches, and refrigerators with AIs). I don't think Will created the group.
I think you mean Activision. EA is the small-developer-destroying cosmic horror that formed sports franchises to last ein tausend Jahre.Nurb said:
They're getting better recently anyway.
Well, the fact that they bought BioWare-Pandemic and left them with autonomy is interesting enough when contrasted with EA of old. Then there's the fact that Riccitiello read everyone the riot act to the company about making games with poor metacritic scores, and the fact that they've made Mirror's Edge and Dead Space. They're trying to strike out in a new direction, Lord knows they're trying.pantsoffdanceoff said:

I'm not sure how to feel about this. I love Will Wright - I think he is one of the most creative people in the business. I loved Raid on Bungeling Bay on the NES (back in the day), and back then, I didn't even know he was behind it. I can't help but feel like he was burned a bit by EA and the whole Spore fiasco, and now he's just going to kind of hide in the background of things until years later when he will, hopefully, give us a smash hit of a game.
I'm just really afraid he's going to fade out of the gaming scene.
All we will be left with is Kojima's "Totally Hot Butter" company cranking out games with insane plots that will make your brain try and esacape through your ear.
Yeah, the website is pretty poor and not what you would expect from someone of his stature and assumed financial position, the site really doesn't breed much enthusiasm into this venture at all 
I like the name...Stupid Fun Club...its funny.
But I never liked The Sims or Spore, so I won't like much else he does either, I suppose.

"It seems CEO of Stupid Fun Club has been embezzling money to Argentina..."
"He was unable to comment on the situation..." *cut to a picture of this guy in a business suit carrying a briefcase plowing his way through a crowd of microphones and cameras to get to the doors of this office building with giant rainbow-colored bubble-font "STUPID FUN CLUB" on it...
Damn.
Yeah, it could be hilarious, I agree.
