EA tends to sit on their franchises rather than let others use them. Kind of lame, that is one of the reasons why they get so much hate.

There is also the fact that the Saudi fund who bought EA is probably more interested in sports games and sports rights than in failing studios owned by EA. If you buy a company for their sports licenses and don't care much about the rest, the first thing you do is chop off the parts you don't want which happen to be losing money.
