They have done alot of destruction of the industry. There were some good companies out there before they got fucked up by Electronic Asswipes. And No it will Not get better.

They also almost caused the death of 'Naughty Dog'  Jason and co almost stepped out of gaming after EA treated them badly.

EA is secured by the EA Sports franchises always selling and Battlefield 4 and Sim City despite their issues, sold a ton as well. Everything else is just a bad year for them, and hopefully they will come out stronger.

 I think their main issue is they are aligning too strongly with MS and loosing some key talent in the process. They also most negative on Nintendo which doesn't go un-noticed by the Nintendo fans and simply speaking EA is stupid to ignore the success of 3DS. I think EA is right to minimize any kind of exclusive support for Wii U, but they should at least be porting their EA Sports and other staple games to Wii U where those can sell 100k+.
...

For 2014 I expect that TitanFall on X360, PC, and XBO will sell a ton for them, and I also think the Need for Speed movie will do pretty good for a video game license based movie. Aside from that it is anyone's guess on what else will/wont be successful for EA.


As a Nintendo fanboy and a Wii U and 3ds owner, I have intentionally refused to buy any EA games for those devices due to their lack of support for Nintendo. The only time I've given EA any of my money recently was during sales where the cost was so low they hardly got anything from me. I hate EA because of their stance on Nintendo, a shame too because I really wanted Madden 25 and was interested in Mass Effect 3 for Wii U but FORGET THAT.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

No doubt EA represents everything that is wrong with the industry right now.

I have a lot of good memories that start with those logos.



The always online feature in SimCity is gonna be removed?? Now there's a chance I may buy it. If they only made cities bigger...

Anyway, OT, EA is in fucking shambles lately. It's fuck-up after fuck-up after fuck-up. The only games that don't seem to suffer are the FIFA games, I guess EA know that they're the ones keeping them afloat these days.

EA is only a part of it. The race for visual "perfection" which drives up development cost among other things are also a part. So I guess it could be better to say big Western Developers mindset is what is wrong with the industry right now.



I want them to get bankrupted.

The loss of some of them still hurts. EA is probably less evil than Activision, but it can actually do more damages because it's sloppy in its greed, up to spoil good franchises by milking them too hastily, and to utterly piss users off with excessive, impudent and clumsy attempts to get as much money as possible from them.
