Its not like we dont have a reason to hate though, and the main reason why this happens and will continue to happen is because we dont back up our hate with our wallets. Most of us are hard core gamers and still buy this stuff because..............well i dont know why, we just do!
Speak for yourself
I guess Im not hardcore.I havent bought their product since Andretti Racing for Saturn and that was 10 years ago. I may not be hurting them by shitlisting them, but I sure as hell am not helping their cause either.
I rented Burnout for xbox in 2002, does that count as supporting their payroll?
Bungie officially goes on the list if Halo 3 ends up being a stinker like part 2 was.

i consider myself a hardcore gamer, liking games that the "average" gamer wouldnt play or appreciate we much (gun valkerie and PDO for ex.) and i havent owned a EA game since road rash on the genesis, and that was when they were a good company. even IF i ever chose to purchase an EA game i would make sure it was used so the company wouldnt get any of my $$. i dont see it as EA haters, but more of people protesting with their wallets against BS that happens in the industry.

they stay in limbo
same goes for Rare, they don't exist to me right now. If it wasnt for Kameo, they'd be on the list. Sadly, its better than PD Zero in my opinion, and thats not saying much.

BF2 is one of the best multiplayer pc games that I have ever played. Fight Night Round 3 is amazing I am going to buy it this week (I play the demo alot). I am sure EA has made alot more crappy games than good games but come on guys we dont have to hate them that much

But something needs to be done about the servers.. and I say we should all be calling MS. We owm the M$ 360, we are paying for Xbox Live and M$ (in my opinion) should be the one responsibly for EA's crapy servers. If EA won't fix it, M$ should force them to use there servers or not allow the game to be distribued
PS.. I bought FNR3 2 days ago and I have only been able to play once online out of 20 attempts

I know what you mean. PD the original was godly, banjo kazooie, also good (when I was about 9 that was).
But since, rare had just, well, become crap.
Bungie's Halo, again great. Halo 2, seemed rushed and incomplete, story was not continued from the books or the original game (big gap). The graphics although good really suffered from pop-ins and basically not as good as the original campain.
I hope halo 3 they take their time with.

I guess I'm confused. How did Halo2 seem rushed and incomplete? The story does follow the Halo universe and is centered mostly around the same character's, plus introducing new ones. It continues the story of Man's war vs. the Covenant, and sheds light on the motives f the Covenant. It also continues the fight against the flood. Aren't these all the elements and story from Halo?
Anyways, what does someone with BF2 think of the 360 version? Is it worth a buy, rent or ignore? And yes, I am familiar with the anti-EA arguments, so I can live without those.
Thanks!

You are the minority trust me. If you werent there would be no problems with theese games because they would be forced to fix em in order to make money. So "we" didnt include you and Kage!

Right on, Halo 1 and 2 were both good games. My opinion on the 360 BF2 is, I like it just as much and even more, than the xbox version. Looks and feels a bit more polished and the online is very addictive kick ass fun. This and COD2 are the very best I've played online.

Dont include Kage with me. Hes an "EA non-supporter", Im a simple EA hater. Theres a difference according to him, he's explained it b4
Rubix, sure Halo 2 introduced some things, but in a lot of peoples opinions, its how it was presented that was flawed. We all have our own thoughts on the series, and theres nothing anyone can say that could change my mind about halo 2. It was one of the biggest letdowns Ive ever experienced in gaming. I am not allowing myself to even think about part 3 so I dont get hyped for it, end of story.

halo 2 was vastly improved over halo in multiplayer and graphics. i don't care about story and single player. if halo 3 is good multiplayer, i'm there.
Im the opposite, I didnt give a crap about mulitplayer, I wanted a story as good as Halo and wanted simple lan/live coop.
Post by: Rubix42 on April 21, 2006, 01:19:00 PM
I loved Halo and Halo2. I was super pissed about the cliffhanger, because who wants to wait 4 yrs. for a finished story.
I personally believed that Bungie was doomed the moment they announced Halo2. No game can live up to the hype that game had behind it. Every Halo fan had their own idea of what Halo2 would be like, and most were mistaken on many levels.
Ah well. At least this is a BF2 thread. . .

QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did this thread go from EA BF2 MC Servers to Halo2 sucking or rocking????
muddychicken asked if servers were down and if EA was being themselves(meaning lazy wastes of skin)
tonloc79 responded asking when isnt EA being EA?
muddychicken agreed
MasterX, without giving himself away as a closet EA fanboy, called us haters and rolled his eyes like
I responded with someones gotta do it
tonloc showed reasons why we feel the way we do but admitted he gives in and buys their games
I said Hell No I dont, they suck Kutaragi @$$ and havent bought an EA game in a decade.
and here it is...
I mentioned Bungie is almost on the "EA" list.
tacobell fan, gordita37 was in a frisky mood and asked "And what if there is no Halo 3" and rolles his eyes like Master X did
Kage360 the sega fanboy testicle says he hasnt owned a EA game since road rash and wont ever buy a game. he says we arent haters, we just wont open our wallets.
Altima NEO has a pair and speaks his mind and simply says "EA sucks" Right on man!
I replied to gorditas earlier comment saying if halo 3 doesnt happen, Bungie is shitlisted because no matter how much I liked Halo, the sour taste part 2 left in my mouth will always linger.
Master EA X steps in again and says "we" dont have to hate them that much.
I tell him he can spend his $$ how he pleases.
Kernal69er joins the raging battle
.... says they make some of the better games??(he was obviously smoking some sweet mary jane when he typed that, I didnt bother replying to that rubbish).I dont know what Ozy said, hes in Ignore.
Ok I see it now, Rubix42 quoted Ozy, so it was all Ozys fault
Tonloc reminds me I am the Minority(which I am well aware of).
griffin XXI agrees with Rubix...
I explain the difference between Kage and I...he's a EA non-supporter, Im just asimple hater
spinr34 says he cares about multiplayer only, screw the single player.
I chimed in and said I feel the exact opposite.
Rubix42, with his mature thoughts understands its all subjective
Tonloc wants me to ad an EA logo to my sig banner so Triumph can thus dump on it.
Drpiety is upset about voice/mic issues..
and that brings us to you MR. Kernal69er
see what you started?!?!
**Yes, I have nothing better to do at the moment. Im sitting here waiting for a friend to arrive to start a Recon Lan party. Kage knows who I speak of, and he probably wont show, leaving me to sit here playing effing pocket pool
