I don't hate any console maker, but I like Microsoft the least. Not necessarily because of the hardware of the games they bring, but because of their policies and their secret agenda as made clear during the reveal of the XBox One. I can turn a blind eye though and I could buy their stuff, as long as they'll stay... honourable.

There's one company though that deserves my hatred. Only one. For as far as there is any. That company is EA. They must die. They have seemed to be hellbent on destroying everything good about gaming and everything I personally liked ever since like, the 5th Gen at least. I haven't bought a single game, good or no, that sports the EA logo for a decade now, and it's unlikely that I ever will, ever again.

If ever I cross the line here on VGC and I would actually get banned, hating on EA will be the reason. And I would be content with it. Yes. It runs deep .

You have seriously missed out on some amazing games then...

I dont like EA either, but Im way too weak to actually do anything about it...



I dont hate, i dislike some companies in accordance to the service they provided me with their system.

If the console broke then i will be extremely displeased with the company. If said company fails to deliver software that i would expect from them, i will be displeased. If the company charges for things it shouldnt or tries to gauge me, i will be displeased.

The displeasure phase lasts about 1 generation until they can prove to me they changed their ways. If yes, i will consider them again, if not i will keep away.



I don't hate any of them. However, they all can do infuriating things.

I most likely would have at least liked the Mass Effect trilogy. Bioware is a good developer. Too bad they belong to the wrong publisher .

Seriously, if EA let's Bioware make Knights of the Old Republic 3, I may have to suck it up. That, or let Maxis make a SimCity 5 that's actually worthy of the name while EA restrains themselves from meddling in it's design. It won't ever happen though .

Also Dead Space and Dead Space: Extraction. Both great games

 

Henry Hatsworth In The Puzzling Adventure is awesome as well...



I don't hate game companies off of the bat, although I'm not afraid to call out a company for pulling some stupid crap in the main wakes of EA and recently Ubisoft. As long as they are helping the consumer and making good business decisions, then I don't really have anything to complain about if they make good games.

Yes, there have been games every once in a while I think look cool. I just can't let EA have a single cent of my money, even if that means depriving developers that actually deserve that money.

I'm very disciplined. If I want to be .

If you don't want EA to get your money why not buy their games used?


Thats a good point...



I disagree to agree to disagree because I agree.
