Also you don't need to own the original half-life 2 to play ep1 or 2, so they are there own games. With EA's Expansion packs you got enough content that was equalled to a game. DLC's are just a small fraction of content at the same price as an expansion.

well, that IS true
I mean if EA created the aperturemesa universe, you'd probably have to pay a monthly subscription and 5 extra dollars for any plot element you find out about the games. the games would also automatically stretch across long and boring gameplay periods so they actually get to use their monthly subscription

All I said is that having shareholders would make a difference. EA has no obligation to you, none at all. They have an obligation to the shareholders to maximize profit. That doesn't mean I think how they go about that is right, I personally think it's bullstuff. None of this changes that Valve would be different if it had shareholders, which is all I said.

My original point was that there's no reason for a consumer to defend EA, which I have seen happen. Dunes responded to that with the mention of shareholders, which was hardly a substantial counterpoint. I was getting back to my original claim with most of that text, not directly responding to what you said.

Yeah good point, I probably shouldn't be ranting at 5 AM.
