wow.. next thing ya know EA's gonna go for Rockstar!

[silent h3ro]

wow.. next thing ya know EA's gonna go for Rockstar! THey better not. :angry: :angry:

[Mad Cat]

THey better not. :angry: :angry:

Why not?

We'd get a new GTA game every 76.3 minutes, with "great" new features.

[Formula1]

well if they did that, GTA would be become terrible :/ , considering the fact that there are barely any rated M games by EA ;)

Look how "good" the FIFA series is ! With GTA you'd get great new First Punch features.....







It was sarcasm anyway.

[TheDave]

we'd get gta underground

[orcutt989]

That would suck. Ubi soft makes games that dont need cd cracks, or online cracks. Like XIII, ive dloaded this game, and installed it on countless machines, and everyone is able to play the game online, without cd's! I love UBIsoft. Ea on the otherhand, is a pain in the ass. Their games just dont need a no cd crack, they need some other type of crack.

[silent h3ro]

Why not?

We'd get a new GTA game every 76.3 minutes, with "great" new features. That would suck becuse you would get sick of GTA and the new features would be gay.

I wonder what the average IQ of GameWorld is... :unsure:

[DanB]

maybe sarcasm tags would have helped?

[Peerzy]

The UbiSoft game im most worried about now is Far Cry they better not fuck that up.

[Mad Cat]

Exactly my point. S-A-R-C-A-S-M.

[Mad Cat]

It ruins the moment.

[TheDave]

far cry underground!

a bunch of mutants blurt out ill fitting ebonics while you shoot them with exagerated guns to a nu-metal hiphop soundtrack. the action only stops (every thirty seconds) while you refresh yourself at a burger king or use your cingular phone :dry:

Haha, I am in love with you.

[silent h3ro]

maybe sarcasm tags would have helped? Yea guys warn me in advance.

[dinner123]

Rockstar wouldnt sell out to EA. They have enough money as it is, and dont need 'help' from EA. :happy:

[Bowen747x]

I wonder what the average IQ of GameWorld is... :unsure:

lmao nice... also EA wont own gta (or at least put their name on it) because EA is a "family" orientated company, as youll notice none of their games contain adult content.

[silent h3ro]

[cpt_azad]

dude, i swear to god if EA touched the whoe Tom Clancy thing that Ubisoft is so into, I will personally go after EA with everything I've got. and no that wasn't sarcasm dumbassessses

[Illuminati]

First they get the NFL, then they claim part of Ubisoft.

I dunno why but I believe this next year might be a dark year for gamers :( Having said that, as long as they don't try to buy out Take 2 they'll still be a lifeline :)

[cpt_azad]

Ya, Take-Two will be our saviour. But seriously though, EA sux0rz the big one11!

[silent h3ro]

Go EA!! jk :(

[Smith]

NOOO. god damn u EA!!!

corperate whores

[Smith]

NOOO. god damn u EA!!!

corperate whores


all ea is good for is making one good game (bf1942) which was totally uncomplete at release (japs using german weapons) then releasing a bunch of shitty expantion packs to cash in on the serieis, then abandoning the game becasue they have announced a new game.

ea blows donkey dick.

[Haz]

Only thing I know about EA is their slogan with that dumb kid voice

"EA, challenge everything"

or

"EA games!"

That's more than enough reason to hate em for me.

That's more than enough reason to hate em for me. Actually thats my favorite part about them. Wtf are u talking about? :whistling

[TheDave]

the thing that pisses me off about EA games is you cant skip the logos.

ok, so i bought the game that had a big eye-sore EA banner across the bottom, then i installed it in "program files/EA games" rather than the game name or developers folder. you nagged me to sign up to EA tech support then the first time i start the game you make me sit through everything, i dont mind that too much, but every fucking time i start a game you waste 10 seconds of my life by telling me to challenge everything. i fucking know its an EA game dickheads! stfu already!


looking on the brightside - in 5 years games will be awesome as a new generation do thier best to stay original and not sell out, maybe nintendo wont be laughed at anymore :01:

[cpt_azad]

fuck u EA, challenge everything my ass when u can't even complete ur games on release :dry:
