EA isn't as bad (but does come close to) as Activision.
Activision just rehashes its games over and over while keeping simple for the console idiots who think the xbox is superior to the pc and buys out companies like Blizzard to corrupt them to spread their corporate bullstuff. Also they have no love for the pc, so they make console ports.
EA buys every thing it sees then fires the staff from the developers they buy out everything. From there they try to dumb games by removing features like modding so the shelf life on there games inst as long and they can dish out more titles. EA also talks about how game prices should be low and criticized ea for their prices, then they made origion(trogan horse) and made the prices higher on just about all their games. Also they have reputation for releasing crappy sequels to games that end up killing a series. Remember Mass Effect 3 and Command and Conquer 4? Also if you think they aren't milking your favorite titles then guess what, the Battlefield 4 beta is coming out soon. Remember Battlefield 3 came out last year.
Both Companies need to die.
