Speaking in an interview with Gamasutra, Rich Hilleman, who's been at EA since the '80s, explained that though its efforts on the Amiga home computer and failed 3DO console were commercial flops, the lessons learned helped it succeed on subsequent systems...

Hey Amiga! You are in my prayers! I can so relate, as I have shared before 3 years and counting for me as well. Filled with many free-lance part time gigs, writing, cooking, planting.... living. Always great to just be yourself, people just really don't know how to react; they have their list of "appropriate" answers. Thinking of you! Hugs, Kary
