    Oh yeah EA sucks at games can't wait to see their equipment in a market that's been under control by Nike, Adidas and others.

    I hope they realise you can't patch physical sportswear after you've released it... A football which randomly explodes when squashed wouldn't be so good. :p

    I can see it now, footballs that you have to key in the DRM code before each play or they go flacid.

    Yeah, the valve only works within range of their own branded boots' RFID tags. Contact with competitor companies' boots results in immediate deflation.
