What is Electronic Arts, Really? Thread

Ladies and Gentlemen,

EA Games is one of the biggest companies around. They have bought out many game developers and still are. In the past few days, there has been news of EA creating every NFL game and soon every NBA game. Last week they bought 20% of ubisoft, responsible for games like prince of persia and splinter cell, and will probably buy the rest of the company. They are also working on buying DICE, creators of the Battlefield series. So is EA really helping out the industry? I think not. Its getting harder to get jobs these days, and even harder when one company owns 50% of the industry. Thats the case with EA. if you wanna quit your job, good luck. The chances of working in the industry again is slim now.

Some of you may have read this essay, but it has made its way through the papers and is probably one of the most interesting reads. The life of an EA worker is rough. And the way this is going totally puts me against Electronic Arts.

Please have a good read with this and think about it.

they resemble slave drivers almost

Yeah its definitly a facicst republic... the end is near

EA killed my mother and father, now they must pay!

EA ATE MY KITTENS

EA raped chis!!

dont be stupid HateI3reed every one does that

once EA do buy everything "good" it will just mean a new breed of games by revolutionary independent companys will eventually rise through because Ea will just produce a game about the cold war with 4 diff companys at the same time just so theres "competition" and everyone will get bored o that shit

ea lost the nba deal FYI

EA is world dominant, they are EAVILE

I realized their poorness since C&C Red alert2, I knew some bad shite was brewing

Ow. I'm happy that i haven't bought too much original ea games

"ea" gave us red alert & generals, but they are still poop >:I

EA fucked over Dungeon Keeper Mod, i hate them forever for that. Burn in hell EA!!

i liked red alert 2, but generals is eww!

generals was not bad... But yes, EA sucks. I was woundering why in nearly every game I play I can find the EA logo some where.

Electronic Arts are the biggest bunch of shit-eating, monkey fucking, sperm swallowing assholes ever. They refuse to make games with any gore, and they own most of the industry. The last bloody game they made was American McGee's Alice in 199 freaking 8. They need to get some balls. The only EA game I was happy with was NFSU2. Otherwise, they need to start pumping out more games rated Mature, to capture the fanbase for blood-n-gore people like me. There's a lot more blood-n-gore loving people out there than EA thinks there are. They should tap into that fanbase. They'd get more rich than they already are.

Yeah, they are catoring to parents who do not play games (not the ones who do) which is not a very good idea...

I know that if EA put that good-old-fashioned EA quality into a game with extremely copious amounts of blood, I'd buy it without a second thought.

ea doesnt put copious amounts of blood.

hell, look at them, keeping medal of honor a T-rated game

ww2 was meant to be violent, thats why we had it!

What? No, we had ww2 so we could make hundreds of movies on games. Really we had ww2 so that we could become a power in eurpe, we goaded Japan on to get into the war, we also knew about pearl harbor and did nothing so as we could declare war on them.

hmm EAs racing games arent bad.. but the rest really suck

see red alert was good, until EA bought westwood.

yeah burnout 3 was good. i think they are good as in choosing which game developers... but what they are doing to them is a shame

in my opinion calling a racing game good is like calling trash treasure :-P
(no pun intended)

one mans junk its another mands treasure

Remember "Thrill Kill" people!!! R.I.P. Thrill Kill... R.I.P.

*me cries

stupid EA!!!
