EA advertising, stop attacking CoD for no reason!

[Valiance]

I think you may have misused the words "for no reason" here.

Call of Duty is the game that EA wants to overthrow. Why not take jabs at it? Remind everyone about your product instead. It's been done for years, not just in this industry.

I enjoy it. It's fun to get a bit nostalgic and reminisce about the old Sega vs Nintendo wars. Of course, that catered specifically to children and this seems no different.
EA has made it clear they're after CoD, why even bother trying to hide it? I'll be enjoying the mudslinging from my high horse behind a plexiglass wall.

Oh, they're not attacking CoD for no reason

Yeah, can't say I give a shit about either company. Activision lost me after running series like Tony Hawk and Guitar Hero into the ground, and that was before all the BS that CoD has causeed. EA, well, they lost me with their continued BS tactics surrounding their sports games. I HATE That EA publishes Bioware titles now, and I hope to god they don't start adding stupid shit to them as well.

Unless you don't count Miranda's arsenal they have already added shit to Bioware.

Since most of Bioware's titles are not multi-player they haven't done stupid shit like selling power or gradually forcing you to pay more to enjoy the game. Optional DLC that gives you extra characters or content for Mass Effect is fine. I can take it or leave it and the choice doesn't affect my enjoyment of the current game content.

I admit that it was a bit of a stupid title . But I could not think of anything else to call it

I don't think the majority of the people watching this are even going to get what they are referring to. I have 2 problems with the ad. One is the the song choice. They have the licenses to all those awesome songs from Brutal Legend and this is what the went with? Two why aren't the guys from Bad Company in it.


Besides it's good this bitter rivalry exists. It means the companies might actually put effort into their games.
