EA or Activision? Pick your Brand War allegiance!

EA.

I love most of their business practices, and all of the studios they own, too.

The only thing I dislike is them shuttering Pandemic.

After their best game, too.

[small] No, no, I don't know what you're talking about, The Saboteur was better than both Battlefront games, nah, nah, I can't hear you. [/small]

Still, when I choose between the company that killed off Pandemic and the company that beheaded Infinity Ward, killed off Red Octane, closed down Bizzare Creations and is lead by Robert Kotick... yeah... EA.

Battle-what? Oh, those silly "online" shooters.

I didn't get into action games and shooters until the 360 era. So. any pre-360 shooters are dead to me. And their servers are, too! ba-dum-tish

Saboteur was amazing. But I contend their best work to be Destroy All Humans 1.

I'd bet that the Battlefront servers are still around (not much, though... like, a dollar).

Really, I'd give the second game a chance if I were you. It came out a month before the 360 and feels basically like Battlefield 2.

I hate EA less so...I guess EA?

Srsly Activision can go die in a fire, well at least Bobby Koprick (ha you see what I did there?).

I also enjoy sports games (Fifa, Madden, NHL...) and Bioware so they got that going for them.

 

[Jack Macaque]

Activision.

Only for Blizzard, I'm so loyal I should have "Sucker" tattooed on my forehead.

Wow, flame war much?

I don't see how this has been a flame war at all. First, I'd say that the overwhelming majority are in the EA camp, with very little opposition, and those that did choose Activision voiced their opinions without attack the contrary opinion. Despite hostility shown towards one or the other company, I'd say that towards each other, people have been very civil in this thread.

Right now (minds can change) I pick EA, they have given me Hot Pursuit online, and Crysis 2 - which has turned out damn fine on the consoles. Im not siding with Activision because of one thing..look what they did with the PS3 port of Black Ops, embarresing or what eh? So i shant be supporting Activision until MW3 hits shelves.
