I was recently sent a code from EA to play in the Medal of Honor beta. I decided to go with the Xbox 360 version since it was just released (while the PS3 and PC had their betas for weeks), and I wanted to help the beta that most likely needed it… and after playing it, this game needs all the help it can get.
There are no thoughtful ads in Video Games, EA. Leave them be.
I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.
But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.
One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.
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.
I too was saddened to see how the Medal of Honor Beta looked. I was hoping for it to be the anticipated "CoD Killer".
Me too!

Fer real.
And it's not even like the environments are big. It's COD-sized maps, but without the quality COD gameplay. Now I know about the glitches in MW2, but the game really does work, at least that's my opinion.
The SP won't be enough to save it in my eyes unfortunately. For that type of game, it must have good SP and MP in concert. Which I cannot say the Beta has. Maybe it will get better, perhaps I'm just a big cynic, but I don't see it.
Battlefield: Medal of Duty is not worth $60, especially when I already have Bad Company 2 and will probably end up getting Black Ops
It really did suck, what was with the freezing before you died, that alone ruined it for me. lol
