oh those greedy bastards, making a console game so they can make more money. I exepect Obama to hold a press conference over this greed, and maybe a Senate hearing. How I would love to here Carl Levin rip EA a new one over this "shitty deal" for pc gamers.

Except that Dragon Age sold better on PC than on the consoles, if I am not mistaken. So no, you are just wrong.

so they failed to turn a profit on the console versions? I find that hard to believe. And what does dragon age have to do with anything? The qoute you used was about BFBC and not making a PC game.

Because Dragon Age for the PC was made properly for the PC and there wass very little dumbing down done to it, and it sold perfectly fine. The quote was not pertaining solely to BC, it pertains to all the developers who whine about why they don't make money on the PC. If they didn't release shit, they would. Instead of taking responsability of their own incompetance, they decide to use a scapegoat, and since so many people are uneducated about the REAL effects and causes of piracy, they can get away with it too.
