Talk about EA and laziness…
Finally making some time to post an entry (which seems like a rarity to me)… I guess it’s the somewhat new job that I have…
Anyway, over the weekend I read an article about EA being blasted about a game they released (and you can read it here)
It’s one thing to make a sports game…
It’s another to simply update player stats, update the year to 2013 and sell it as if it were a new game at full price…
I find that it’s really a shame that a game publisher would resort to such laziness… If they really didn’t care about a certain console, they shouldn’t have made the game for it to begin with. If this was a game for PS3 or Xbox 360, they could’ve easily made those player stat updates DLC for people to buy instead making it like it’s something new. Granted, most sports games tend to be money farms for publishers, but doing something this ridiculous is just not the way to go. In fact, this is the very reason why I never bother buying any sports games… Don’t get me wrong. If you like sports games, then more power to you. I just can’t justify buying what may look like a new game on the outside, but really is the same game on the inside.
EA, you know better than to do that to gamers. Grow a pair…
That’s my entry for now… Next time, Vocaloids and MMDCup 9. Stay tuned…
