I don't know...

I like what they did for TitanFall. Battlefield Hardline was lackluster, but allowing the greenlight for Battlefield 1 was a great move.

EA Access is not some scam shyt, either.

Fifa seems to be the prototype for a sports game, apparently. As good as 2k is...people have waves of complaints. I hardly hear complaints about Fifa, though.

And honestly...

It seems that people complained but I WOULD HAVE BEEN ECSTATIC IF EA BOUGHT UBISOFT - the real plague of gaming companies. Electronic Arts sells its stake in Ubisoft

It's an Internet thing to whine about EA sports I'm telling you. Nobody in real life bytches and complains like these fukkin geeks do every year. We all play Madden every year. We all play 2k every year and have fun..

fukkin geeks :mjlol:

These nikkas still whining about NFL2K5

You can look at Madden's year by year sales and see this isn't true

EA has been making the same thing over and over for decades.

literally


The only good thing they really did was there BIG games those where amazing. (ssx games, street games, def jams)

Then they went back to there tried and true.

Even brought down Bioware with them


titanfall was a good save face...but not enough.

They're very miss and hit these days. But its mainly due to their involvement in buying up companies, fisting the dev team and releasing half hearted sequels.

For me specifically, it started as soon as EA bought up Bioware. ME2 was a better sequel to ME in gameplay...but dear lord did they try to turn it into an arcade shooter.

The same company that brought back to life Battlefront and made it online only with barely any features from the previous game. Then sold it for 60 bucks on :trash: servers :damn:

Will never forgive EA for that shyt :camby:

The bolded is why I will never buy anything related to EA again. They ruined what's should have been one of the greatest series ever.
