You act as if EA bought the companies just to destroy them. Bioware and Pandemic are still around and still developing games. In fact, they may be able to put out an even greater number of games since EA will publish their games and possibly fund development. Of course you could claim that the developers will make worse games under EA's ownership, but how likely is that?
Besides, to everyone reading this thread, saying you hate a company is one of the most idiotic things ever. What, do you hate the CEO, Director of Human Resources, and the thousands of employees? Or do you hate some abstract vision of the company you created by buying a couple bad products?
And in reality, all of the people who say they hate EA's games probably own at least a couple of them. One company or another has to dominate the third party market, it might as well be EA. Besides, Activision will quickly reveal themselves to be the new slime of the industry, so watch out for some exciting developments.
