Whats the worst publisher?

Activision for me becasue they remove features from games, rush games, milk games, charge for games, and threaten console manufactures.

It's tempting to put Microsoft or Sony just for the flamebait, but Activision took the cake.

Activision. They put no emphasis on quality and just pump out as much content as possible.

No EA used to be like that. They are a lot better now with more emphasis on quality. Its evident with FIFA, Dead Space, Need for Speed, Medal of Honor, Mass Effect 2 and all those franchises.

Come to think of it, why is this in the console war section?

Only EA Sports pumps out yearly games, and from what I've been hearing, they've all been excellent as of late. The rest of EA is great. They publish Dead Space, Battlefield, Army of Two, Mirror's Edge, etc. That's quality right there. Activision does a few IPs, but that's it. I think this year all they published was Blur and Singularity.

Forgot about that one. This is one of Activision's better years. I remember last year all they had was X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Prototype, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, and Wolverine was the only good one.

I don't like EA because of their grudge against pre-owned game buyers, but they have the best 3rd party lineup by far. Mass Effect, MOH, Dead Space, etc.

Yeah, the Online Pass for their games bugs me, but again, it's only for EA Sports titles. I like EA. I don't like EA Sports.

That's because EA is a shittier company. People only vote Activision because of what Kotick says.

To a certain extent I would agree with you but not completely.
I think EA usually publishes better games overall but they don't really listen to what people want. Especially when it comes to ipod touch/iphone games. They NEVER update even the most glitchiest games ever.
They never add features people want and they keep the same extortionate price forever.

Activision on the other hand, they just keep bringing out the same old crap time and time again. And Kotick...well, he's like Hitler of gaming....probably worse..... I mean,at least Hitler gave people those leisure activities and things, like the boat trips (strength through joy), and hitler youth.
What does activision ever give us?!?!?

Explain how EA is the shittier company. Activision's entire business strategy relies on milking every last cent out of a franchise and eventually burning it to the ground and then finding a new one to milk. They have pretty much burnt Guitar Hero to the ground and they have began with Call of Duty.
I would put money on Call of Duty being irrelevant in a few years time. If you don't believe me, look at Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero 2 and 3 were huge, they were some of the best selling games of the year and only a few years later the name means nothing, all because of what Activision did to it.

Subject: Re: Whats the worst publisher? Tue Sep 28, 2010 6:27 pm

Well then good. I want Call of Duty to dieeee already.

I hate Activision but I wouldn't compare Kotick to Hitler. Hitler's politics killed 6 million Jewish people, and many more because of World War II. Kotick is just a general dick.
