And EA started out as a company that is the total opposite of what they became/are now. I call it the "Metallica Effect" :)

I was gonna say, they can't do that...... That would be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Some forum mod got a hair across his ass and tried to be a tough guy, lol..... and then the higher ups said "WTF did you tell them? You can't say that."

I know it doesn't mean much in this economy, but EA (Stock Symbol ERTS) is loosing money. ERTS Stock

As far as a boycott, its time to start for me. After buying WAR for me and Spore (against my better judgement and will) for my wife, I'm dissatisfied to say the least.

Most stocks are losing money ;)

It did seem a little outlandish, even for EA....but they have been trying to one up themselves lately!
