EA calls Activision a 'huge, ugly monster'

People can call EA hypocrites, but here's the thing. EA was never, even at their worst in the 2002-2005 period, as bad as Activision is now. EA saw that they were becoming pretty much despised by everyone, and they promptly changed their tone. Activision knows thet are despised by everyone, and they could not give two damns about it.

Ironic, considering EA was the monster not long ago.

EA is now a reformed monster after going through rehab.

By the way, does anybody know if you fight Activision in Monster Hunter 3? (Admit it, you thought that this was hilarious)

Now atleastActivision's CEO can STFU.

That's opinionated.

I'm only stating that it's opinionated, personally no EA game I've played was entertaining.. Such as Battlefeild 1, Deadspace, Mirror's Edge, Rock Band, Need for Speed, The Sims 2, Burnout, a few Metal of Honor games.

I just have to say it - there's no game called Battlefield 1.

Just 1942, Vietnam, 2, and 2142. All the others aren't worth it.

[QUOTE="SparkyProtocol"] Why do you disagree? It is a fact that they have brought new and quality IPs and improved existing ones. Firebird-5

Just talking about the first one that was released, I played that like 5 years ago?

If I was EA, I would be taking that up and running with it as well. For years EA was the huge, ugly monster, now that the namecalling is starting to shift to someone else they should be embracing that to keep it off of them:P

Well they are. Ever heard the phrase it takes one to know one? Well EA was one so they can spot another from a mile away.

You know EA is a very mainstream publisher right?

Activision is really becoming very very bad with their kotix guy.

I don't know if EA president said some arrogant statements like Kotick.

But I think they are both ugly monsters and Acti is outdoing EA.

However I think come next year, EA gonna be the bigger monster, their line up is way diverse and bigger than what Acti would dream of.

• Mass Effect 2.
• The old Republic.
• Dante's Inferno.
• Battlefield Bad company 2.
• Crysis 2.

Thats only at the top of my head and for that I like EA way more than Activision, the only game I care about from acti is MW and thats it.

Former monster calls current monster a monster. Yup, gaming is serious buisness.aaronmullan

Thats what i'm saying

Tbh Im starting to like EA again...

I mean their games lineup is pretty good actually. AdNFSshift looks t be a good simcade.

Plus they've been great supporting Burout paradise.

Activision though is prett much relying on Call of duty for greatness, and are now upping the price. Problem is though people whould but COD6 even if it were £70...

Tbh with how good COD4 was even Id be tempted at £60 and would probably cave in and buy it after a while.

odd that we know that not even 8 years ago EA would have tried the same stuff...

EA has been doing right by gamers for some time now. Activision however have not been and would love to gouge us all for as much money as possible even making games $100.00 dollars.
