Now, why EA is going up or down. Here are some reasons to ponder.
Most well know games are paid to play, well that's fine. But take The Sims for an example. After you purchased, if there are any expansion pack or any additional accessories, you are required to pay for every expansion packs it comes with.
EA have released numbers of incomplete game and was clearly broken. Battlefield 4, the highly anticipated game for multiplayers. The game was such a disappointment to many, as it focused on the single player campaign. And guess what, the game was filled with bugs.
EA wants to monopoly the industry by buying off competitors. Small studios like Bullfrog Entertainment, Westwood Studios are being taken over just to control their brands.
Origin Forums. The site where players can discuss, get ideas, tips and tricks. Unfortunately, if you are banned due to whatever reasons, you are banned in your game as well. Yes that means whatever games you login using your Origin, do say goodbye.
