    Default Grrr!!!

    Hey everyone... check out this quote from the president of EA. It's at the top of this page:

    http://www.live-radio.net/info.shtml

    Actually, in case it changes, it says:

    "Microsoft has had it's teeth kicked in, in both Europe and Japan" - John Riccitiello (President of Electronic Arts) on Microsoft's XBox

    EA's been willing to declare a winner for months, and they're more than just a little biased against Xbox. It's a fact that MS didn't do as well in Europe or Japan as everyone hoped, but IT'S STILL A YOUNG SYSTEM!!! Why must EA go around each and every week spewing filth about how poorly the Xbox is doing? What do they hope to achieve by this? All I know is that it's sickening how anti-Xbox they are.

    You'd think, as a game developer, they wouldn't go around bashing one system... because more money can be made from being multi-platform, and if you p!$$ off the fans of one platform, you're guaranteeing that your titles won't do well on it. Are they planning on supplementing their potential Xbox revenues with kickbacks from Sony?

    EA sucks at everything they make or do. I wish EA would just die. They can't make a Bond game to save their life.

    EA slams xbox because when they release a port to the xbox, no one buys it becuase there games suck, ps2 owners can't tell there ass from a hole in the wall, so of course it sells well! I say screw EA! M$ should buy them and just fire everyone! EA's games have sucked ever since the playstation! They are just spouting because there programers lack the skills to keep up with the hardware advances!....stupid ea!

    I've enjoyed some EA games on the computer but I haven't been impressed with their XBOX lineup. Boycotting them would not be a sacrifice.

    EA would have to make the next Halo for me to purchase anything from them. Which is a real shame, because on the pc, I bought every NHL & Madden and plenty of other games from them as well. Now, with the crap they've pulled with GTA3, allied assault, and these comments...it will be a cold day in hades before they get my money again.
