Please read all these articles. There is much to read but worth it to inform yourself. For the good of all gamers and the games industry EA needs to go down in flames. If you have any good links feel free to add. This affects the entire games industry people and the game players. EA has been killing good companies for years. Treats it's workers like shit and makes nothing but regurgitated games over and over year after year. Games support is almost Non-existent. Spread the word and don't buy EA games! Sorry for the crossposting but my friends and I here really believe strongly in this. We as gamers are all in this together. http://www.livejournal.com/users/ea_spouse/ http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/041213/135991_1.html http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=1507 http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/12/20/151205&tid=187 http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=6016 http://money.cnn.com/2005/01/17/commentary/game_over/column_gaming/ http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4180453.stm

You'd think rehashing old tittles would be fairly easy on the staff (less work then being original), but if that's what they're doing no organized boycott is required, the market place will eventually do it for you. cross post removed.

If you are boycotting, be sure to send EA a letter or email letting them know, otherwise the boycott will be futiel. "Dev" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eobHd.111792$8l.84379@pd7tw1no...
