    Hey guys, Awesome news! Apparently the My Little Pony franchise we all know and love is getting handed over to EA. This could be great for the show! Think about it, this could mean more explosions, a-and violence, and product plugins! I mean, who wouldn't want to see Dashie playing Battlefield 4 on the Xbox One drinking A Mountain Do with a bag of Lays potato chips? Apparently this is what EA had to say about it.

    "We felt it was an opportunity that we couldn't pass." The CEO of EA said,"Having A TV show with such A large following could truly be A great learning curve for us." When asked about what they will change with the show, EA responded with "Don't worry, The characters you all know and love are here to stay, we will however be changing the storyline slightly. We've seen the fan fiction that some fans have written and we are heavily considering turning some of the greater and more popular works into reality. Works such as Cupcakes, Rainbow Factory, and Love In The Library just to name A few." Wh also asked who will be writing the storyline of the show, and he replied with "Good question. Although some at EA have had experience with writing story lines for games such as battlefield, we felt we wanted to get someone with real experience to be on out team of story writers. That's why we hired Michael Bay."

    I can't wait!

    If you find out anything, be sure to post it!

    If I was doing this gag, I would have said it was Disney and not EA, considering the longstanding rumor that Disney wants to buy Hasbro.

    oh. lol, well I think having some more mature action in the show would be alright, nothing gory.
    maybe a side show like "My Little Pony the Firestarter's days" movie. haha
    like Rainbow Dash fights a new pony in town that starts fires on the houses and trees, some bombs and big flames.
    seems like a good idea. - just my opinion.

    This is true, though I will point out that I wasn't posting that at you. Yay for ambiguity.
