Can we offically have a ban on EA?

Due to EA having largely crap games, blacklist of WiiU, and now this... I am 100% done with EA. I will have to forgo my favorite shooter series until this changes.

um... what game/issue is this about?

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I can't find myself hating EA. What they do is crappy but there are plenty of other companies in this gaming community that do far worse and get a free pass. It is hard to tell if the hatred of EA is legitimate dislike of screwing others over or just lets attack EA.

ok, thank you. It just wasn't mentioned in the op, and the link didn't work, and with EA you can never know what game is faulty right now
