Eh, 70 hours a week is nothing compared to the 80+ hours I was pulling at my last job (also a game company). :P One week, I didn't come home from work for 5 days straight. Thankfully, they had a shower there.

The problem with EA was not paying their employees the OT they were working. That led to working below minimum wage.

Where do you work at right now? I work with ISI/ICT right by EA. We make games for the military. I'm mainly an animator btw.

Trust me, I wasn't getting overtime either. I calculated it out one time, and the first year I worked there, I would have made more flipping burgers.
