For over a decade,

Electronic Arts

Merged with several small game studios 



The Sims spawned from Maxis

And Playfish gave us pets

Even Black Box had some things to show



EA is a big thing

Costs had to be cut down

They would sometimes stoop a low



Just about fourteen

Studios are defunct

And all out of service



They were shut down by EA

Workers mourn in tears

We will never forget them

And their games we played with our peers


From Westwood to Phenomic

From Headgate to Visceral

They were all closed down by EA

May we play some of their games here


Remember NBA Street,

The game from NuFX?

And Dungeon Keeper from Bullfrog?


We know that Pandemic

Made Star Wars: Battlefront

Victory Games did not last so long


I hope the acquisitions

Still going strong right now

In EA's huge spider web...


...will keep on going

While us players are knowing

The ones that sadly died


They were shut down by EA

Players mourn in tears

We will never forget them

And their games we played with our peers


From DreamWorks Interactive

To Mythic to Origin

They were all closed down by EA

May we play some of their games here

They were all killed off by EA

May we play some of their games here
