It's not just a matter of whom you express your anger toward; it's also a matter of how that anger is expressed. There are constructive and non-constructive means and measures by which one can express anger or displeasure. Just getting mad and launching into a frightening fitful rage of destructive verbal abuse rarely does much more than cause the other party to either respond in kind, totally ignore you, or just shoot you in the face with a bazooka to get you to shut up. Either way, the result is often that either no progress is made or hasty decisions are made in the heat of anger and despondency that are then later regretted as it dawns on people the reasons behind the original decision that precipitated so much anger. Essentially, negativity only begets more negativity.
One of the properties of being an emotionally matured individual is that one is able to override one's own emotions such to not let emotions dominate one's actions and decision-making. Rather than act in the heat of the moment of anger, it is usually better to take time to calm down, think carefully about the other person's perspective and possible reasons for the decision being made. If after such careful consideration, one finds oneself still in severe disagreement, then CONTROLLED anger is warranted, and by controlled anger, I am meaning precisely my prior statement on being an emotionally matured individual. One is angry, yes, but do not allow that anger to goad you into hasty actions and responses that you may regret later. Even further, don't let that anger goad you into non-constructive actions that will only waste time, energy, and resources while still failing to solve the basic problem. At every moment, one should maintain a clear and level mind to be able to clearly perceive the problem and devise an appropriate solution to the problem.
No one forces us to buy particular games. There is no need to have a particular game. If one product does not satisfy your desires, simply find one that does and close your wallet to the companies that abstinently refuse to provide quality service and products in exchange for the money paid to them. Walk away from companies and deals whose only purpose to squeeze you for every penny you have while giving nothing in return. Stay away from companies that seek only to scam you out of your money, creating complex, obtuse schemes that on the surface seem like a deal but are, in reality, a total rip-off. Sure, you can write to the offending companies and let them know PRECISELY and DEFINITIVELY why you are not purchasing their product, and the anger can be clearly conveyed without having to resort to childish taunts, foul-language, or threats of physical harm. When enough people collectively respond to a company by closing the wallet, believe me, the company will change, immediately.
Remember, these companies want your money more than you do, and that gives you leverage over them, more than they actually have over you. The only reason game companies have had so much leverage over gamers is because we have become too "addicted" to the product. We have developed an attitude that has put games almost to a level of being a necessity of life, when the reality is that they are far from it. We simply need to find something else to occupy our time. Find constructive, productive hobbies or personal projects that will negate the need to engage in the "addictive" escapism that is often proffered in these games. Rebalance the mind such that this immature rage is no longer a necessary means to achieve an ends.
Everyone gets anger, even mad. Even the most mellow of individuals has moments of indignation and boiling inner rage. However, in order to use such anger responsibly, we have to not only choose the target of that anger carefully, we always must temper the degree to which that anger is applied and not let it be the factor that controls what action we take, only the motivator that brings us to take action. We must still remain in control of ourselves and our actions and remain self-accountable to exercise wise judgement in what action is taken, when the action is taken, the reasons for the action, and the means by which the action is manifest. In my opinion, short of being attacked by a rampaging bear, there's not much excuse for violent, tantrum-like, lashing-out outrage, especially not over a video game.

A fair point.
