EA and ESPN exclusive Deal

Damn this stuff never stops...happy reading.

I guess they are dumping Madden.

Celebrate again

EA signs another exclusive deal this time with shitty Arena Football.

The game publisher and the Arena Football League pen an exclusive agreement to develop an AFL game. The deal also grants EA financial considerations for the future expansion of the AFL.

FIFA is next...

So EA is working toward acquiring a 20% share, a majority, in Ubisoft (source). In the last year, they've acquired Criterion, an exclusive contract with the NFL, and now this. How much later until they acquire a large interest in Vivendi? We may all joke about a future dominated by an EA monopoly, but it looks like it's coming closer and closer to happening. I won't sit here and call a "boycott" against them, it's not like it would do any good against the swarm of soccermoms and nascar dads buying the latest copy of Madden or NFS:Underground for their wannabe racer kiddie rugrat. But everytime you hear something like this, if you can, do something else to promote games other than stuff from EA. Buy a game from a smaller company, something from Atlus or even something cheap like Katamari Damacy or Gungrave: OD. Try to track down Alien Hominid or Shikigami 2. Get a friend one of these games for Christmas or their birthday. Get involved in making a game, if that's your thing. Fight the man! and all that jazz.

Welcome people. I wanted to channel all the rage directed at EA. This is one place to do it. I'm working on other outlets too. I really don't give a crap if Burnout 3 rocks, I'm not going to buy it. To hell with EA, what reason should the gaming public have for supporting them.
