Do _you_ think that EA Games is evil?

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Do _you_ think that EA Games is evil?

Corporations are not evil or good. they are in business to stay in business and earn profit. A corporation is by it's very nature a soul-less entity. The problem is that people have a tendency to personify all sorts of things. That is, they attribute unique human attributes to non-human (and even non-living things). The Weather, the sun, the moon, a rock, a dog/cat/favorite pet all get tagged with human characteristics.

Corporations are no different. Microsoft is not Evil, they are simply successful. you could argue that Bill Gates, Steve Jobs or a particular corporate officer is evil and that may be true.

EA's shareholders require a profit. as soon as that well drys up EA will change leaders.

Games are incredibly expensive to create nowadays. They are multiyear, multimillion dollar investments. If I held stock in XYZ company, I would prefer they work on "Popular Game III" versus "Innovative Risky Game".

Which is exactly opposite of the type of game i would like to personally buy/play.

EA makes games for the masses. many of them look great but are rather dull.
