so we all know ea (electronic arts) is probably the biggest company when it comes to games these days, a ridiculous amount of games come out under their name and an even more ridiculous amount of sequels. it seems to me that every single one of their games is the same, all of them are highly polished in their appearance and technologocally speaking however it seems like none of them ever deliver on gameplay or substance. their have been some exceptions however usually these exceptions are followed up by a series of sequels that are exactly the **** same everytime with minor touches added all purely made just to make money from the franchise rather than to add volume or quality to the series. alot of the time these types of series' end up becoming utter crap aswell, the medal of honour series is a prime example, compare allied assault to say frontline and you'll see why.
another thing that bugs me is the fact that all their games are incredibly short lived, not one ea game i have come across that wasnt just a franchise they bought outhas ever lasted me longer than a week before i got bored of it. All their games especially recently haven't added anything to any of the genre's they have entered, they all seem to just copy other games' ideas, make them good graphically, make them incredibly short (single player wise) and then get all the credit from reveiwers.
so my question is do you think the same thing about ea as i do and that they really arent doing anything good for the gaming industry but just seem to be like a plague?
