Dear EA,

The majority of your games are crap.

Sincerely, me.

We don't care as long as we're making money.

Ironically, EA themselves were the ones to prove that the Wii U is more powerful than the 360 with Most Wanted.

I find it hilarious that they say mobile is where it's at and they closed a lot of companies in their mobile division, and that they are calling gen 8 gen 4.

Funny to see you guys get riled up over this.  I'm not a gaming connoisseur, but I know that the 360 graphically isn't better than WiiU.  I think the tablet is awesome- one works fine for me but I would imagine that it would create problems for a family with more than one kid. They should allow multiple tablets. 

 

Why is it funny? 

 

As for gamepads, it's not just a matter of "allowing" something to happen.  Resources are limited and the resources needed to use the TV and gamepad simultaneously are not insignificant.  But there are rumors that Nintendo will reveal a game or two at E3 that utilize a second gamepad.

I don`t understand the need to be personnal about this.

If people don`t like it, ok, you don`t have to like everything. No need for lashing out like this. A "i don`t like it" does the job.

do you see the responses in this thread? People take things they like and dislike very personally. Although, being upset about one random guys opinion about something you like is pretty silly imho. I think my little pony is the lamest thing since the old my little pony, but there's no need to be upset about my opinion.

Gamers are a strange bunch!

It`s hard to be calm and peaceful about it!  :D

 

We need to set the exemple... after this one last comment! :P

Ok, I shouldn't say it's funny.  People are passionate about this.and the guy that made the comment was a doosh.  But you are talking about video games.  People shouldn't take this personally. It's not life or death.

 

As for the gamepad- I guess that's understandable, BUT chips and memory seem to be coming down in price so fast (as would the components for making the gamepad), it seems like they could fix this rather quickly- didn't somebody mention that a newer version was coming out in 2014? It would piss off the early adopters.

It would revel in the beautiful sunshine off the early adopters, but I think it might actually sell more.

We should obviously trust the statements of a guy that works for the worst company in America. Especially when that company has received that "award" for two years in a row.

EA doesn't deserve to be the worst company in America. It was just voted that because of angry little fanboys. Lot of companies in America worse than EA.

Just look at IGN's comment section about the subject. They actually AGREE with EA. Shows how low gamers are now adays.

It's a consumer award.

It's not about who pollutes most, who treats workers poorly, it's about how well the company responds to their customers concerns.

EA lack.

EA, a game company that makes video games, should not have been above Bank of America 

 

While Bank of America managed to dodge the “Worst Company in America” title, coming in second place is nothing to brag about. The bank cut its ATM network by around 10 percent, foreclosed on wrong houses, and made errors on home-loan adjustments. Bank of America was even sued by investors, Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, and the U.S. government. It also came in last place on the American Customer Satisfaction Index survey

 

You actually want to compare someone being displeased at an ending of a game or DRM to someone losing their home?

In this perspective, I would agree that Bank of America is worse. But EA would still be the worst gaming company in America. Most of EA's votes were because of their terrible business choices. Unneeded DRM, greedy microtransactions/DLC, and poor response to consumers. EA's rocky relationship with Nintendo doesn't help that much either.

That isn't all that makes them the worst company.  EA are also anticompetitive, anti-consumer.

 

Also, like it or not, there are far more happy BoA customers than unhappy ones.  The same could not be said of EA.
