This is music to my ears hearing this announcement with Bioshock this to me is definitely the best of the new ips to come out in the last couple of years besides Uncharted of course. Hopefully EA can also do some good things with Mirrors Edge which has massive potential also to be a great game with a few tweeks here and there
