Hello,
I just read this article from gamespot.com:

Well? I find this a little unexpected. I like Marvel vs. Capcom 2. I like a lot of EA's games. But Marvel vs. EA?
Good idea? Bad idea? Who cares? Let the speculation begin.

wow it sounds more scary than anything EA makes really go sports games but a fighting game? I don't know how well they will do but it will definitely be interesting to say the least

A joke? Well, the joke must be pretty big if Reuters is reporting it.

That is a Reuters article on Yahoo! I found this article linked from games.slashdot.org.
I know this is hard to believe, Bobtheduck, but if Reuters is reporting this....
