EA vs Everyone Else

I really don't see it as a completion of the game. I know its extra content but the pricing is just ridiculous for what you are really getting.

Shit, EA is close to figuring out how to just get you to hand over $120 without getting ANY game in return. Count yourself lucky with those bastards that you get anything at all.

I am on an EA boycott but with no NHL or football competition I might buy them this year. Badgers made it to the Rose Bowl so they will be good in the game. Packers - well, you know.

The \"infographic\" displayed doesn't reflect the vision of all gamers... EA's service model works well for many businesses issuing content. The idea being create a service robust enough to satisfy the majority, and leave just enough \"features\" out, so that the game doesn't seem complete to those hardcore enough to care, then, offer the extra/bonus/special or what-have-you content the hardcore end-user asks for (having already considered it's implementation long before hand) for a fee or as a bonus to those who pre-order (which is fast cash in their pockets). This is not uncommon. EA is a business, and they're in the business of making money.

That assumes the service is robust enough to satisfy the majority.

This is EA we are talking about...

Is battle field going to charge you for ammo to put in your guns? Wonder how far off that is.
