You're right. They're removed for now. I'm considering expanding the list to all publishers rather than just EA. I'll focus on getting the definitions and descriptions right for now, and I'll probably add the list of guilty games at the end. Thanks.

Such dealings serve to remind us that 1) they do some good, and 2) this list, at the bottom of it's intent, is made because we care about the game industry and we want to see it do well, by telling it to give us what we want, by critiqueing it. Here's an appropriate quote. It comes from Call...

Large entry into the microtransactions bit of the list added. New entry in the list of webpages at the bottom of post 1. If you're interested, please read the new entry of microtransactions. These are drafts, and therefor subject to change. Feel free to add / discuss / suggest. As said, I...

I've been thinking about that. I might have the title changed to ''Complete list of game publisher's mistakes'' for the sake of being complete. You'd be surprised to see what a clear, complete and cohesive list of unpopular features can do. To do that, there will have to be some digging into...

Yeah you can say good things. I don't think the quality of the 'game' portion of their games is the source of our complaints - they're not. EA does produce a lot of quality games. It's all the bullshit surrounding their games that gets on our nerves. I don't know enough about Origin at this...

First ever post on Escapist because I'm so sick and tired of the gaming industry's bullshit. Who am I? Long time gamer since 3 years old, now 27. I haven't spent a penny on anything new videogame related since 2005 because I don't feel they deserve any of my money...
