Paste Magazine--No one sets out to make a bad video game, but as with any other creative industry, for every brilliant flash, there are dozens of duds. Paste looks at the biggest duds of 2013.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
I think the title is incorrect in that the list contains more games that are disappointing but it does contain games that are just down right should be in "the worst games of".
Disappointing to me means that the game had promise before release and a few of the games had no promise to begin with, Infestation Suvivor Stories (WarZ) and Ride to Hell Retribution fit the worst games of.
What?! Beyond two souls is an amazing game, its grabs your attention and it's quite emotional. Also Battlefield 4 is good but not amazing (well it will be when they finally fix all the issues). Furthermore I noticed how COD:Ghosts wasn't on the list, if anything COD:Ghosts should be at number one because of the copy and paste effect and the lack of a next gen engine.
Everyone should read the Fighter Within review the list sends you too, pretty funny
Beyond two souls was amazing in every possible way...
No Aliens Colonial Marines?
