A friend asked my why I hate EA. Let me count the ways...
Main reason is what they do to gaming. Owning rights to a game franchise is one thing. Owning rights to entire sports leagues is ridiculous. Isn't that unconstitutional or something? Hearing how wonderful NFL2K was gave me hope. It said that not every football game has to be a Madden. ThankfullyI don't even really play sports games anymore, they have lost me, especially the way EA makes them. Give me Wayne Gretzky 3d Hockey..... However this is a great injustice to sports and gaming. Shame on you, EA.
EA used to be a solid developer. I just think they have too much on their plate. Recent games I've heard from them, Madden on 360 is not even worth buying. I played through some of the Harry Potter games (I stole them from my sister) and they make me sick. Boring, slow load times, pretty upsetting. More proof that EA is in it to make money at the cost of crappy games.
Please EA, don't kill another franchise. Do yourself a favor and break off into the Pacific Ocean.
