We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
You can sell 5 EA IPs (past, present), 1 each to a different publisher- which ones, and to whom?

Correct this hate boner for EA is really reaching Poe's law Meme levels. I mean OP said Mass Effect to CDPR it doesn't get more Memey than that.
I like you.
I came for The Saboteur, and this might be a great idea.
Take cues from The Saboteur, your weapons, gadgets, guns, etc are from that time period, area.
Need for Speed? I'm not sure because I want it to stay an arcade racer.
I need to think about 3 more.
road rash to playground games
syndicate to harebrained schemes
dead space to frictional games
command & conquer to relic
star wars to square-enix

I just realized that I don't give a single shit about any of EA's franchises, despite me liking quite a few of their games.
edit: nvm, they own Titanfall. But that should stay with Respawn.

I wouldn't want CDPR to touch Mass Effect, I wouldn't have any faith in them doing anything good to the franchise. Heck I think Obsidian would do a considerably better job.
I like the Command and Conquer to Sega
syndicate to harebrained schemes would be another great choice
Burnout to Codemasters would be interesting to see.

User Warned: Thread whining
No one because it's stupid as hell just like the idea of the thread.
I don't see EA making a new Saboteur or Mercenaries or Dead Space.
So tell me, how is it stupid when they will never touch those IP's?
I think your suggestions for C&C and Burnout are spot on
I don't care about ME, SimCity, and Dead Space though

They're saying publishers, guys!
- Dead Space to Bethesda
- C&C to Blizzard
- Dragon Age to Cygames
- Mass Effect to CDPR
- Ultima to Portalarium

I honestly feel like CDPR is just so different from the Bioware feel. Would rather the IP, and Bioware with it, go to a publisher like MS that'll give them full control.
If I can't do that probably Ubisoft. They at least make decent games. I know it won't be bad.

Just give Star Wars to whoever as long as it's multiplat. Don't think it can get worse than two underwhelming MP shooter in five years.
-Command & Conquer to THQ Nordic, as they seem to know how to handle their IPs.
-Dead Space to Capcom
-Mirror's Edge to Ubisoft
-Mass Effect to Sony
-Dragon Age to Microsoft

I'd give Simcity to Colossal Order but they already make Cities: Skylines so there isn't even a reason for Simcity to exist anymore.
I'd give Dead Space to From Software so they can make a Sci-Fi horror souls game in a derelict space station.
Man, why are people saying Dead Space to Capcom? Give it to Bethesda so that the evil within guys can make it.
Mass Effect to CDPR, for reasons already mentioned
Mirror's Edge to Flying Wild Hog, because the movement in Shadow Warrior 2 felt really good, and I think they could nail something more realistic
Crusader to FromSoftware, because I feel they could translate the original's methodical and at-times cautious gameplay into 3D fairly well

I'd just disperse all of EA's stuff to different devs:
Mass Effect to Obsidian
Burnout to Polyphony Digital
Need for Speed to Turn10 Studios
Dead Space to Kojima Productions
The Saboteur and Skate to Ubisoft
Star Wars to CD Projekt RED
Battlefield to Guerrilla Games
Dragon Age to Bethesda
Titanfall to Bungie
All Sports Titles to Sony San Diego [to coincide with the level of quality of the "THE SHOW" titles. NFL THE SHOW, NHL THE SHOW, etc]
Mirror's Edge to Techland
SimCity and The Sims to Firaxis
Plants vs Zombies, Unravel, and Warp to Nintendo
The rest, meh.

For this case, yes. It's stupid because it's never going to other companies.
To you maybe. Not to most people as the thread proves.
People always dream about games coming back even when it is almost impossible.
Titanfall -> Bungie
Mass Effect -> Microsoft Studios / The Coalition
Dead Space -> Capcom (Resident Evil Team)
Need For Speed -> Polyphony Digital
Plants vs Zombie -> Nintendo
Mass Effect -> Microsoft Studios / The Coalition
Dead Space -> Capcom (Resident Evil Team)
Need For Speed -> Polyphony Digital
Plants vs Zombie -> Nintendo
YES
Madden to 2k
Skate to.....uh I'll have to get back to you
Plants vs Zombies to Blizzard
and then going to steal this one
Crytek owns it and I'm amused because in the past I suggested Nintendo buy it from them or pay for 2 exclusive sequels.
Battlefield >> Ubisoft
Mirror's Edge >> Sony
Burnout >> Codemasters
Star Wars >> Activision or Starbreeze (I think they could both do an incredible GaaS experience which I think would suit the SW IP)
Titanfall >> Bethesda (I think there's potential for an expansive RPG in that universe. Think next level power armour).

Damn tough choices, I agree with
Mass Effect to CDPR
I could easily give to Sony because it makes sense
Dead Space
FIFA
Star Wars
But at the end I'll choose Star Wars

The IP would fit Nintendo's catalog very well. I loved TS2 on GCN.
Except for burnout going to anyone except a ms dev, I don't think selling to another company will work.
What do you mean?
Dead Space to Tango
Star Wars to Sony Santa Monica
Dragon Age to From Software
Mass Effect to Naughty Dog
Freedom Fighter to Guerrilla

Dragon Age to From Software
Mass Effect to Naughty Dog

I guess if you don't go outside of Era you would not have seen it, but in the wider gaming community at large CDPR are worshiped as gods and can take any western RPG and make it better. Just Imagine how God of War is spoken about on this forum, but multiply it because the game is multi platform. This wonderful post also has the Joy of adding EA is bad to the meme sandwich. Also a popular "joke" in the gaming community.
But to add to the topic people could be more interesting with their choices Like
Obsidian with The Last of Us and their excellent branching dialogue trees and quests.
Insomniac with Mario, how crazy would that be?
Sony Santa Monica with Gears of War
Naughty Dog with Ninja Gaiden
You know something more creative than "Gib IP from publisher/devs I don't like to publisher/Devs I do like.
Star Wars to Sony
Dead Space to Capcom
Mass Effect to CD Projekt.
Burnout to Codemasters
Dragon Age to Bethesda

Mirror's Edge - Techland
They did such a great job with Dying Light's parkour that I would like to see them try and give Mirror's Edge the game it deserves.
Dead Space - Capcom
Who better than the Resident Evil 2 team to reboot Dead Space?
Nintendo - Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare
Nintendo would definitely make it fun and support it for a while.
Microsoft - Dragon Age
If they are going to bring back Fable, I'd love to see what they would do with Dragon Age.
CD Projekt Red - Mass Effect
Didn't like Witcher, and don't like the sound of Cyberpunk. Mass Effect would be killer.

I not even sure I can name 5 different EA franchises. Let's see, there's Need For Speed, FIFA, and Madden, I heard a lot about EA and Battlefront last year so that must be one. Am I missing anything?
I'd sell Need For Speed to Bamco so they can do a Ridge Racer vs Need For Speed game, and FIFA to Konami so they have a relevant soccer game, Madden America can keep, and Battlefront to SEGA, cause they need all the help they can get, and people would love a new SEGA Starwars game.
