The layoffs and budget cuts are symptoms, not cause. They've been terribly mismanaged for years -- on the studio side, not EA -- pissing away resources doing essentially nothing.

Could be either. No matter what it's mismanaged, somewhere it's to blame there. Could be EA, could be Bioware.

All I know is they could be alternating Mass Effect and Dragon Age every couple of years and just be pumping out profit - if they were managed well and had good investment. The fact that they're not just seems to me like EA/Bioware are just leaving money on the table
