Poll: EA

[nettkenneth]

i feel that EA have good ideas but either because of many designers and few testers they take out the many good parts because its to hard to create or is their inability to make a above average game just due to incompetence

you decide

Try and use proper spelling, grammar and use capital letters - it'll make your post easier to understand.

What you seem to forget is that EA is a publisher - not a developer, one with some of gamings recent greats on it books - Dead Space, the FIFA series, The Sims, even Valves orange box / Left 4 Dead would fall under the category of "EA's property - hands off".

So I disagree entirely with your post - EA have published some great games - even Battlefield : Bad Company was an above average game in my books, and lets not forget the brilliant but flawed Mirrors Edge.

I find some games are done well, while others seemed rushed. It really depends on the title you are looking at for EA, but they can do good work, and they can do shit work.

EA, whilst they make alot of crap, also publish some incredibly good games. Mirrors edge (not to everyones liking, but still a good game and trying something new) was EA, as are the battlefield games (all but 1942 i believe).

EA is a bit of a punch bag cause their the big guys, so what if they make games like the sims and various sports franchises. They must be doing something right to make so much money! Yes i bet it wont be long until some moron complains about how their just exploiting the 'casual lesser race' etc etc.

They publish alot, ofc your going to find things you dont like in there but I bet somewhere theres a good game for you amongst em.

It seems looking back, that most of my favorite games have been published by EA. Of course they've also published horrible games, like every publisher has. I mean Ubisoft releases more worthless games than EA imo (Imagine Babyz). So I quite like them.

Like the others said, sports game and the games that say EA on the front aren't the only games published by them. They have actually published many great games, and despite the fact that all their games aren't great, but hell, who's are? A huge company is bound to make some bad decisions.

 

[nettkenneth]

well the games are good but they are buggy and it annoys me when army of two crashes or i can't pass the main menu

 

[nettkenneth]

i feel they pump out games by the month

I'll try to take your advice,
but every game i've played with the fancy EA logo on have been very flawed in comparison to the games with other logos on

ea were great last gen

they made competent mostly glitch free games in 6 months to a year that lasted around ten hours
basically, if you wanted the generic game of any genre to get into it, then you would get an ea game

these days however, they're a bit shite it seems with frequent glitches and short games
shame
