Once at the forefront of video gaming, the PC in recent years has slipped from the cutting edge to teetering near the edge. New England Gamer looks at one gamer's recent experiences with the platform to find some insight as to why.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
Your first mistake was giving your wife the credit card, but all jokes aside. Piracy is prevalent on all gaming platforms; I don't agree with some of the methods used to prevent piracy (DRM), but keeping your PC on an internet connection today is the norm I would think? And remember, It won't be long till consoles travel the same path as PC's and require a constant internet connection. I mean, who would of thought games on a console would require patches/updates -- this used to be only the domain of PC games.
This is a pretty fail article. The game doesn't require constant online connection, it just requires it for the initial start to validate that your game is genuine. All EA games are like this.. herp derp. It needs to connect to the EA servers. I'm pretty sure it tells you this when you install the game.
"I know (hold your breath folks) why PC gaming is on the decline: it’s a pain the ass."
I would think that going to your router, unplugging it, going back to the computer, is more of a pain in the ass then just being connected all the time.
Just for this reason alone PC gaming is dying???? NVIdia, Intel, AMD, Razer and more does not share the same idea.
DAMN! Why Microsoft (your beloved XBOX360 manufacturer) officially release Kinect for PC if PC gaming is dying?
DAMN this article of PC is dying is really frustrating me. STOP THIS BULLSHIT ALREADY!
Lets give one reason pc gaming will never die.
There are two giant companies named Nvidia and AMD.Until they remain,pc gaming will stay.And they sometimes finance some games like Arkham Asylum.
And for the stats count ps3,x360 and wii titles .Add them and compare it to titles released on pc(don't forget the indies).Pc will still be no.1.
