Ppl on tumblr were freaking out about this and saying to never support EA ever again like they haven't been absolute snakes since the Origin Systems days

"Never support EA again" implies they were still supporting EA after the last 20 "never support EA again" red lines were crossed.

bit idea: scaring the chuds with a story about how all new video games are going to have mandatory prayer breaks five times a day

The new SIMS update adds the possibility that your SIM can be publicly executed for their crimes.

As if people haven't been doing that since the original back in 2000

Don't you just put them in the pool and take away the ladder.

I was more a fan of moving the grill inside and deleting the doors

Robin Banks gets chopped into little pieces and her Apple watch broadcasts her screams to you, the player, after the third time you catch her breaking into your Sim's house

Upcoming patch to remove all references to the Hashemite dynasty from every EA game

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago (2 children)

not that I've played an EA game in years (not a gamer) but damnit, are they gonna shove Saudi ass kissing into Video games now? I stopped following boxing because Saudi money has taken over the majority of the big fights, and every event is full of Saudi ass kissing, including constantly calling the head Saudi guy, "His Excellency" ugh...

80% chance the next Battlefield has you fighting as or alongside the Saudis against Yemen.

[–] redchert@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 3 months ago

Some libs were whining about the saudis fighting the houthis is their only good act.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

They've already been leaning in that direction with SNK being partly owned by Saudis, I think. And I've been creeped out by Rashid from Street Fighter since his announcement. Having someone from a Gulf state is cool and good (he's from UAE), but having it be a plucky, high-tech princeling being waited on by a butler seriously gives the impression of wanting to pander to the younger royals who are spearheading the esports initiatives, with Capcom competing with SNK for their attention.

Post title should probably include the guy who is fucking Trumps crush.

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago

Dang, that another large company bought by the Saudis. International capital really is coming in to pick at the scraps of the U.S.

If they

Put NCAA Football on PC

rant

spoiler

For God's sake EA I'm not buying a $300 console, $120 on controllers, $100 online pass, $80 game in order to have a NCAA football machine in my house. Christ get it together!

Fix Madden
Fix FIFA

I will give them critical support

The Saudis saw that the next battlefield had a map where new york is destroyed and they couldnt help themselves

Need for speed games will now have this nasheed in them
