  Maxis - Encyclopedia Gamia
He cut loose the 3rd-party companies Maxis had acquired, and killed all but one of the projects on the go (although the Streets of SimCity, saved from an early death, would later go on to be another embarrasment anyway).
Although Maxis is chided for selling out by releasing expansion pack after expansion pack, the fact remains that the Sims is a hugely popular franchise and one of the few titles that reached non-gamers on such a grand scale.
Maxis will likely continue for some time; however, the effect of being under EA's wing is beginning to show.

 CNN.com - Maxis profit up, Telekom down - Feb. 27, 2003
Maxis, controlled by tycoon Ananda Krishnan, posted a net profit on Thursday of 949.7 million ringgit ($250 million) for the year to end-December, up from 600.9 million ringgit in 2001.
The Maxis result is in sharp contrast to that of national telco Telekom Malaysia, which reported on Thursday that its 2002 profit fell, as growth in its fixed-line business slowed.
Maxis, which is the last of Malaysia's five telecoms firms to be listed, made its July debut after a 3.05 billion ringgit initial public offering, the country's biggest share sale since the 1997-98 Asian crisis.
