I love this line from the article: "...it doesn’t work for consumers to yell “I hate you!” as they hand over their cash."
Companies like EA will never lose the battle when it comes to consumer appeal. As long as they continue to make solid exciting and immersive games they can, pretty much, get away with anything; most definitely when consumers continue to buy their games. Personally, I've not encountered any issues with EA games as I usually only buy their sports games and rarely do they have DLC content for sports games. However, I do get annoyed when I rent an EA game from Gamefly and want to play online but can't because I don't have a EA access code for that feature. But, what do you do, except go out and buy the game so that it comes with the access code. As long as it doesn't interfere with single player gaming, which I mostly participate in, I have no problems. ---------------------------------------- Have a Better One, Edward Crosby http://about.me/edwardcrosby On Thu, Apr 5, 2012 at 7:47 AM, Serv <[email protected]> wrote: > I read this article from Forbes today and i found it very interesting. > > > http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2012/04/04/ea-is-the-worst-company-in-america-now-what/ > > Since i am (happily) stuck in 1999 with a PS2, i didn't realize all of > this was going on.
