🚨BREAKING: EA Says “Bye Felicia” to Public Life with $55 Billion Saudi Snack-O-Rama! 💰👻 Get ready for the biggest glow-up of 2023 ✨ because EA is going private and apparently, they’re cashing out like it’s Black Friday at a discount game sale! 🔥 The Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund, Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners are joining forces like the Avengers to scoop up the wreck that is EA for a jaw-dropping $55 billion - stonks! 📈🙌 Remember when EA *said* they were bringing the industry back to life? Yeah, about that... After laying off 650+ employees last year (oops, too many microtransactions, huh? 🙄 💀), and somehow still thinking their games are worthy of our wallets, it seems like they’re finally accepting their fate. But hey, at least their CEO Andrew Wilson is out here calling this acquisition “a powerful recognition.” Bruh, more like a powerful recognition of how to completely dodge public accountability. 🤡💔 And in a totally NOT fake leaked convo, one dev said, "I thought we were a game company, not a giant cash cow for billionaires." 😂 🔮 Prediction time: In 5 years, the only thing left of EA will be a museum exhibit titled “The Rise and Fall of Microtransactions – A Cautionary Tale” 🔥🚀 So get your popcorn ready, because this train wreck is just getting started! 🍿💀🔥 #EAGoesPrivate #ThisIsFine
