Forums - Gaming - EA Now More Valuable than Activision.

Doesn't change their image. Still the worst company out there. But congratz to them, I guess.

They make a disgusting amount of money off FIFA. Pretty much everyone I know plays Ultimate Team and spends money on packs, and I know A LOT that play FIFA.

activision at least makes finished gamez

The problem with most of Activision's games is they're shit even when finished. Very little quality outside of CoD.

Without CoD Activision is a joke.


Skylanders

World of Warcraft

Hearthstone

Starcraft

Diablo

yep all Activision has is Cod  /s

 

EA and Activision both worth $2 billion more than Nintendo haha!

Well, Activision does own Blizzard now, and Blizzard makes good games that turn pretty big profits, and Skylanders is a pretty big money maker for Activision. But aside from CoD, Skylanders, and Blizzard I have to agree, Activision's IP portfolio is pretty poor. Guitar Hero used to be a success for them but they stupidly drove it into the ground by oversaturating the market with too many Guitar Hero games. They've got Raven Software who was a good developer once upon a time, but Activision is wasting them by using them to make CoD DLC, I wish they'd sell them to EA so Raven could make good Star Wars games again.

While Activision and Blizzard are part of the same company, neither Activision or Blizzard makes decisions on what the other does. They are treated as seperate entitities.

I never played Skylanders but its pretty well regarded. So I'll give them that.

Raven made some decent games, but they didn't make outstanding games. They don't just work on DLC by the way, they did multiplayer for CoD: Ghosts and CoD AW. So they play a pretty significant role right now.


The thing is Activision isn't on the stock market, it's Activision Blizzard that you buy shares for which does include both parts.

Oh yes, that's very good news since EA is doing great job. Let me write a message.

1- No DRM for PC, please.
2- Make better Expansion Set, not stupid tiny DLCs for couple months later
3- Make different ip other than same game
4- No douche talk on twitter(Yeah, you did on Wii U)
5- No micro-transaction
