you know them, I know them, they are a cancer to the gaming industry, though they have been getting better recently, most of the time, their projects end up like this
they force a their developer to rush a game out the door before it’s finished, and as a result the product is broken, or things like this will happen
Only the best, highest quality video game company to date!
Best people amirite?
Literally 2 days ago I had to use their help chat because both my Spore and my Galactic Adventures product codes were used(even though I bought both of them new), but the people were nice, and got stuff done quick, so I give 'em a 1 up for their quick and easy service.
I disagree with a lot of their general approach to games, but there have been a few that I’m legitimately interested in playing, such as Blur. It’s a mixture of realistic racing games and Mario-Kart like powerup system (represented in the game as energy weapons of some sort) and while it was really good, the advertising for it was horrible. It flopped because pretty much nobody knew it existed at the time, and the client company had to close down.
That may have been under Activision, actually, now that I think about it… whoops.
I love EA. 10/10 Top notch company.
They did make Titanfall which is one of the most fun games I’ve ever played. Too bad the servers are so lowly populated.
true, as I said they are getting better
They aren’t getting better.
They closed Maxis.
I hate them.
They’re in charge of BFIII
I hate them.
Titanfall was 7/10.
I kinda liked that game.
OVERALL OPINONS ON EA: They’re greedy and horrible.
I thought they only closed the SimCity Studio?
I’m not super into gaming, so I’m not super familiar with EA. But I don’t understand how one of the top gaming publishers in the industry manages to be continuously ridiculed and bashed by the community. So tell me fellow Board members, how can EA be such a “terrible company” and yet still sell turn a huge profit every year? I’m very curious.
People call them horrible
Due to the fact they charge a lot of money on their games and the game’s services.
So, just like every other business in our capitalist society? 
well here is why, they sell top tier games, such as Mass Effect, Battlefield, and the sims, those things are cash cows, the problem is, that they force the developer to work in a time frame where they cannot finish the game entirely so it releases with bugs and glitches, customers are essentially buying a broken product, plus they advertise tons of DLC before the game even comes out, implying that this content is in the game and is being sold back to the customer piece by piece. A game being rushed can also have terrible ramifications, such as Mass Effect 3’s whole ending debacle that was a product of Bioware being rushed and having to release the “Extended Cut” dlc to fan out the fire. I just hope to god Battlefront does end up the way Battlefield 4 did when it launched.
If they always publish broken games, then why do we keep buying them?
because they publish good games
So the games are good, yet broken? I’m still finding this whole thing more then a bit bizarre.
Just watch Angry Joe review Battlefield Hardline tomorrow.
You’ll understand.
Yeah I can see where you are coming from (there is also the fact that they will sometimes punish you for buying a used game)
Wait, what?
yeah, if you did not buy Mass Effect 2 new, then you did not get a bunch of the free dlc
