I can't remember the last time I purchased a game by EA, and after reading that article I don't think that will change anytime soon. I will always remember the time I spent playing such EA classics as Skate or Die, A Bard's Tale, and Kings of the Beach.

And folks wonder why I prefer my 8bit/16bit consoles to most modern games.


Hipster P

I don't know what it is but it seems like I find 99% of modern stuff just doesn't appeal to me so as I get older my tastes seem to progressively regress. If that makes me a hipster so be it, but I doubt my fat arse would look good in skinny jeans so maybe not.


Well, you're not alone, if it's any consolation.

Games were good then, because they had to be.

I trust I don't need to explain why?


I dunno, wasn't ET the worst game ever made? P

Hell no, I spent hours running from the government agents, falling into pits, and stretching my neck to levitate out of them. Lol

EA's nuts! Seems like every week some EA connected spokes person does some public thing about how f2p is teh second coming. I guess when you embrace it, you gotta spam the hell out of the internet to convince everyone to play your lousy games. Ode to the days of Archon, though. I actually bought that at Mervyns (US department store) back in the day, it was in the front window lol. Yes, that Mervyns. Also bought ZORK I, II & III there as well as Hitch hikers guide etc. Archon was pretty good though, a high fantasy action spin on chess. Oh well, just so you know, EA is the harbinger of death. They helped to kill the RPG genre some years back for a time. Basically same thing they are doing now to mmo's, cashing in on the same ideas over and over just like everyone else - until everyone throws their DVD's in the trash and go play wii games or something.

I'm in it for the money

Well I think what happened was alot of the executives at EA were lobotomized by space aliens from a dystopian empire in another galaxy.

Edit: ****, I forgot I was just posting a news article. Oh well.
