Well, some of the people behind Maxis exist, anyway... EA has ditched the name. :( They haven't been completely left alone... but unlike Origin, Bullfrog, or Westwood (actually that one is quite odd because I always thought of Command & Conquer as a good-selling series...) they are extremely successful. But I bet that even given this level of success in several years they'll go the way of those other once-successful companies. EA has a way of doing that...
Sure, EA isn't the only one that does that. A lot of small companies that get bought by big ones get drained of talent. But EA is the biggest so they're the best example.
