Silly EA you're not just a scapegoat for industry trends beyond your power... You're largely the reason why does trends ever became industry trends to begin with.
You're right, they still just don't get it.

It's kind of silly that people keep voting it the worst company in america, but... Yeah, they have no idea what they are doing.

Reminds me of Obama. He doesn't understand why people don't like him either.

meh its just more PR BS, 'oh we are sorry, we will do better'

yeah right, i remember them going through the same motions a few years back when criticisms included poor work conditions as well as slack product support and look where we are today, worse than ever.

They wont change, its just another card in their 'make more money at any cost' game of business.

You know... I remember a time when Activision was the whipping boy of PC gamers. Think Pre-Vivendi merger. :)

Regardless of how much people hate them, I also don't understand how they can be rated the worst company in America.

funny you should say that Activision-Blizzard are buying themselves out from under Vivendi control soon, going to be their own masters again.

EA totally know what's going on and their reputation but they couldn't give 2 toots about it.

I know of quite a few people who hate on EA all the time, but oh? Whats that? New Sim City? BUY BUY BUY!!! It doesn't work! OH MAN I HATE EA wah wah wah Worst ever wah wah wah.

Same goes for all the GenericShooterProSnipe2000DeluxEdition Games they crap out every 6 months. So long as the sheeple keep buying them and the piss poor DLC they come out with then EA will keep making them and taking baths in $100 bills.

When games like Hotline Miami and Papers,Please do so well I can only hope that one day these guys will make it big and the narrow minded 'AAA' designers have to start thinking of something new.
