Selfless I guess

EA in order to promote their new digital download thing BF3 will not be available through steam. Oh EA what won't you do to make a quick buck, but I don't care about this since I'm getting it on console but I was wondering if I was the only one who finds the lengths EA goes to in order to make money

 

[danielrbischoff]

Yeah I don't get it. They've got to know that they're losing sales by not putting the game on Steam. Fucking stupid morons, there's no way that the list was complete. They're probably just hammering details out with Valve and published the list too early. I swear to God EA's marketing is fucking bull shit lately.

 

[NickKmet]

Well if that's the case I'm fucking pissed, cause I get almost everything through steam. Now I have to got buy a physical copy to lug around everywhere I go. Awesome.

EA says they have their own version of Steam they're releasing soon for all of their upcoming titles, and that all those games will furthermore be exclusive to the EA software. So basically, retail it is from here on out.

This is really stupid. Do they really think they can compete with a digital service that has multiple publisher libraries? Fuck EA. Really. I hate EA, and I hate Activision.

It's already out...It's called Origin


It's the same reason EA pulled Crysis 2 from Steam.

Nope.

EA is trying to make competition by emulating Steam. We shall see if it works, but I am not that optimistic.

 

[used44]

What a terrible plan, EA.

 

[UghRochester]

I'm not a PC gamer, so this doesn't affect me as much. It's still stupid what EA is trying to do. Ever since the online pass started, EA has been nothing but asses.

 

[madster111]

EA is the cancer that is killing the fucking games industry.

 

[downwitdaclown69]

Stupid.

I rarely PC game, and when i do.. its on steam. This is a bad business decision on all fronts.

 

[LinksOcarina]

EA is the cancer that is killing the f****** games industry.

No, thats Activision, EA is more like the HIV of the industry, slow and lumbering and can potentially be fatal.

Sounds about right.

I hate having to rely on EA for all of my sports gaming needs . I feel dirty, must go shower.

Do you at least go with 2K for basketball? Leave that part unwashed.

 

[Delorean88]

Never liked EA but liked it's games, EA to me always seemed like that huge company that started in another market and tried video games out with the other market's strategies like honestly if they didn't have the licenses they have (especially the sports) they would of gotten weeded out cause of crap like this but because we want their games with have to deal with it

 

[LinksOcarina]

But seriously.....EA or Activision?

 

[madster111]

The one that isn't shit.

Oh, wait.

Old school EA, simply for creating Porsche Unleashed/2000.
