EA: The Evil Empire

Their dark empire stretches its devious hands into all forms of entertainment. They snatch up big time licenses like taking candy from a baby. They simply laugh at all who doubt their control over the industry. Since them, gaming has never been the same (nor as good). “Quality means nothing compared to quantity, this apparently is their motto. They are Electronics Arts. They are the mighty and evil EA empire, hell bent on controlling every aspect of the gaming industry and tear it to pieces as they force you to waste your hard earned money. Yes, indeed their goal is simple. Can you resist their unconquerable might?

Few have dared to try and cross them, and those who have found themselves either out of business or liquidated into the dark beast itself. Really, what they have done is made a mockery of the gaming industry and therefore lost any and all respect from true gamers. Indeed, they still make ridiculous sales numbers from newbies who don’t know what a quality game is. For this reason, it can be determined that EA is by far and away one of the most brilliant strategizing and marketing companies in the history of the industry. Through dirty dealings, huge buyouts, and by spamming ads everywhere they have managed to make the plebeians love them and the true gamers hate them with a passion.

Why is EA so bad? Why does a true gamer such as myself wish their end would be swift and unpleasant? Because EA is too smart for their own good. They know how to market a game and they know they can get huge sales no matter how good their product actually is. They know that through intricate marketing schemes they can manage to get just about anyone to buy their products. What this has resulted in is the end of anything quality coming out of the EA giant. In fact, quality is a word that doesn’t even exist with the company. They wear shirts that say “Stop Quality? (or so they say). The fact of the matter is that their ingenious methods have only produced a deviant, greedy empire that would rather see dollars in their pockets then smiles on their customers faces.
