heh, well EA isn't exactally a good game company anyway... they should make better games, and treat employees better

I don't know about that...Burnout 3 and the Lord of the Rings games are pretty good (and I know there are more that I don't know about).

Still, no company should treat its workers like that; unfortunately, from some of the articles that I have read in response to that blog, such poor treatment is pretty widespread in the videogame industry.

It's not that their games are bad, it's just that their games are always full of bugs :P Now you people know why it has so many bugs; not enough time to make the game AND tired people.

Hopefully, I won't be employeed in a company like EA.

The Harry Potter games! tsk tsk, it took 5 minutes to load a screen sometimes,
EA games has never been my favorite gaming company.
