Battlefield Bad Company mixed in with EA slagging
Nodaisho:
Why can't they? With the exception of sports games and the previous title of UT3, there is no reason they can't be delayed.
Spluff:
It just wouldn't be EA if they didn't force games out too early and ruin studios.
Dimmukane:
Every big publisher has deadlines, and they'll push the devs hard to reach them. If it's something sellable, they'll take it, otherwise they'll push it back. Not just EA, mind you. Activision made Treyarch do Call of Duty 3 in 8 months. And what was everyone's chief complaint with that? Multiplayer. Basically EA didn't think it was an important enough issue to push the release back.

We're talking about EA. Different companies work in different ways, and EA's is too push things out the door when their deadline is reached. Obviously, it's a successful business strategy since the games get sold. For every logical reason anyone could come up with for EA to amend their ways and stop pushing the devs so hard, there will be a counterpoint by the brass at Electronic Arts telling you a reason their way works best.
And for the record, EA knows when to loosen the noose around a developer's neck. They aren't the mother of all evils.

Origin and Westwood might disagree with you.
