"I won't lie and say we haven't looked at it. But for us, it's about weighing where we spend our resources," EA's Patrick Söderlund told Game Informer . "Is it better for them to be working on a completely new IP, which you know BioWare is, or should they be remastering a Mass Effect?"I don't know about you, but sometimes when I go back and play a game, you want the memory of what they were at that point in time when you played them," he continued. "If I go back and play the old games, I think, 'Really?!' Was this what it was? Because in my mind it was amazing."Earlier this week, BioWare revealed the next entry in its popular sci-fi role-playing series during EA's E3 media briefing. It's called Mass Effect Andromeda and will release in holiday 2016 . Read up on its first batch of story details here
