EA has responded to claims that Mass Effect 3's 'From Ashes' DLC, which provides a new character and mission, is included on the game's disc, after yesterdays field day in which PC users were able to get it for free.
From Ashes is provided free for fans who purchase the Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Edition, or available for $10 to everyone else. Previously, the content leaked to Xbox Live and caused controversy among fans unhappy with EA for releasing day one DLC.
EA has hired ex-military personnel in order to help shape the next Battlefield game as part of the Hiring Our Heroes (HOH) program.
Why don't you Hire Your Old Dev Team who brought us the brilliance of Battlefield Bad Company 2 while you're at it. It was more exciting than anything recent in the Battlefield series. It just needs to be updated to reach modern times, but it was so great at its core.
It's what made zipper and slant six awesome. They had military vets working for them, no just as consultants, but as developers as well. I wish Sony never closed them, MAG 2 or an update to MAG and a new socom is much needed.
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.
EA coming back for the crown of being perceived as the worst company in gaming.
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.
"As stated previously, in order to seamlessly integrate Javik into the core campaign, certain framework elements and character models needed to be put on disc," the statement continues. "We did something similar with Zaeed and Kasumi in Mass Effect 2."
Im sorry Bioware/EA, but Im not sure what to believe. If someone can unlock Kasumi and Zaeed the same way they could unlock the protean, then I would believe.
But the evidence is staked against you
Anyone who believes EA/Bioware NOW that the proof has been stacked against them is a full-blown sucker.
You can bet I won't be buying any future Bioware games until the inevitable "ultimate" edition comes out.
600mb worth of cutscene, thats it, that is it!
What evidence ive seen, which has been force fed to me by the community leads me to believe otherwise. At the moment what bioware is saying doesnt fit into the puzzle Ive made on the topic, and that aggravates me. Im not saying im a professional on the topic, im not a lie detector, but every time Bioware releases a press release on the topic is strikes me as a lie, and this im afraid is bad business and every time they do this it breaks my heart.
I love mass effect, I want to know what happens to tali(mai waifu) I want to see the geth rise against the reapers, i want to see the Araknid fight corruption, I want to see all these things, but I cant support this crooked behavior from bioware and EA. It really breaks my heart to boycott this.
Why the hell are EA and their studio's lying right out of their asses lately?
DICE on PS3 Input lag blame your TV, Controller or Setup, yet any other game I play, is fine.
Bioware on on Disk DLC content..
What is this?
