I believe SimCity 2013 was the last EA game I played. I even pre-ordered two copies (one for myself and one for my brother).
They basically committed fraud by knowingly misrepresenting the nature of their product. The early promo videos pitched a complex non-statistical, agent-based simulation.

Paradox feels marginally better than EA these days.
