Bloody hell, Paul. Don't hold back. In WAR's launch week, the MMO's creative director has launched a stinging attack on EA, saying the firm simply "knows nothing" about bring an MMO to market in Europe.

WAR is being published by GOA in Europe.

"GOA did it with Dark Age of Camelot and they've done it really well. They've done it in a very European way, but they've done it very well, and it's more of the same," Barnett said.

"EA couldn't have done it, what the hell would EA know about it? They know nothing about launching MMOs in Europe, unless it's spending lots of money closing them down I suppose."

The quotes are from a Eurogamer interview. Knock yourself out.
