Are their PR department dysfunctional, is this desperation or do they really believe in limitless human idiocy?

Not that I don't believe in the capability of the idiot preordering EA shit beating his own idiocy records, but...
I wouldn't put off limitless human idiocy quite yet.

So their Dragon Age 3 hype train is already rolling, I see.

Grab the Codex by the pussy
EA is the King Midas of shit. On the off-chance that an EA title seemed worth playing, I'd have to install Origin in order to do so, which is the electronic equivalent of injecting oneself with herpes.

Fucking fuck, EA fucking sucks. I truly hate that company and the people in charge of it. It's quite rare for me to experience an emotion quite so juvenile as hatred for a business, but it's undeniable. Playing computer games is one of a handful of hobbies I truly enjoy, and EA is a destructive, cancerous tumor perched atop the industry, secreting shit-smelling ichor that drips down all over everything. Or perhaps a more appropriate metaphor would be a nasty shit-smelling hobo who stares and touches your buttocks periodically while you try to enjoy fucking your wife.

Of course, the people who are ultimately responsible are the people who keep buying their shit. If I witness a human extinction event within my lifetime, my last breath will be taken with a smile on my face, comforted by the knowledge that these people will never be alive again.

because those games now literally belong to history.
you're not going to keep loving your girlfriend who just burned your house.

Well, if you really loved her, you probably would still love her after that, though you might also figure it is best to cut relations. Still, I would say that loving the EA of today would be more akin to loving the alien parasite who ate your girlfriend's brain and now lives inside her corpse.

Eh, I still hate Kotick and Activision so much more. But then I don't buy games from either company...

At leas Kotick's smile looks genuine. I'm honestly considering the possibility that John is a robot.

Way to go bros, switching from their business and mental qualities to their physical attributes.

I don't buy much on GOG. M&M, D&D, Fallout, Troika and Witcher games are about it. And then random free shit like Duke Nukem or Ultima 4

Troika? You know what company Arcanum belongs to, don't you?

Between Origin, Bullfrog, Westwood, Sierra and Arcanum I'm probably worth both a CoD Elite and a Battlefield Premium so far. Just when I thought I was out...

He looks tired, really. It's the kind of sad smile you'd expect to see on a farmer's face after this season's crops have been ruined by hail. Maybe he knows EA is why no one can have nice things...
