Anyone else tired of EA's crap??

[SWIL]

Seriously. They are the Wal-mart of the video game industry. They crush, muscle out, and buy up any company that threatens their bottom lines.

Then they release lackluster, diluted, and shallow games that all resemble each other and can be beat in less than a week.

Now, they dangle power ups and upgrades in front of your face and expect you to pay for all of them.

My only questions is when do we start boycotting all the EA sewage?

How many huge companies in highly competitive markets don't do this? It's business.

There's MUCH worse offenders in this area. We'd have to gather an army to take out all the crappy shovelware developers on all the systems, especially 3rd party Nintendo devs.

I bet we'd all be surprised how many people buy this garbage. My jaw hit the floor the first few games they did this. Couldn't imagine paying for that stuff.

Start any time. I don't think anyone is holding you back.

EA gets a bad rap for the most part. There's certainly horrible stuff we should all hate about the company, but they do give games a lot of good games and a lot of choice.

Just throwing out another opinion...

I remember my life pre-Vuze as well.

Yeah! I hate EA! But then I turn around and give them $240 a year... hmm..

I look at it as a membership fee.. Haha
