The WoW Companion App is Retiring
Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?
MMO-Champion
Former EA CEO John Riccitiello speaks up about EA and their business plans.
So what do you think? Does he speak the truth in the video, or is he just upset that he lost his position as the CEO?
Do you think that this is the way EA thinks about their customers?
Do you think it's just speculations and rumors?
Personally, i don't like EA.
I hate all the DLC:s they have and i hate that they buy up smaller companies and destroy their franchise.
EDIT: Whoops. turns out it wasn't John Riccitiello. That fuckup is on me, my bad.
If a mod reads this, can you edit the title?
NOTE: It's a parody
In case you missed the edit note above..

It's all well and good saying that as a FORMER CEO but if you've not go the balls to speak up, and make those changes while your opinions means a damn, then fuck you.
This guy is trying to score brownie points with the gaming community. I say; "Fuck you"

That's not John Riccitiello, just so you know. But yes, the video speaks the truth, they release crap games that people buy every year because...yeah....smart.

this is obviously not him (see pics on link http://mashable.com/2013/03/18/ea-ceo-steps-down/ )
But he has a point if you dislike EA stop buying their games.

Oh for the love of god its a parody.
Also. him stepping down meant /fucking nothing/. When a CEO of a major company "steps down", the receive several million dollars (if not billion in some cases) of severance money. CEO swapping is literally a PR stunt that makes people think that the company is going to go through some AMAZING CHANGES now that the nasty old fuckface who made all those mistakes is gone.Last edited by moveth; 2013-05-14 at 11:08 AM.

Kinda miss leading title as this is NOT the former CEO of EA...
It is fun though, and a lot of it feels true lol.

Even though it's a parody, it's still a great video, would have loved it to be genuine though.
But as a CEO i'm not sure you would score a lot of good points by speaking ill like that about your former company?

Yeah, blatant parody. The title gives it away: "If Electronic Arts were 100% honest with us..."
Even former CEO's would never badmouth their old company. Probably NDA'ed to boot to make sure they don't.

The world of Corporate Business is very harsh and strict. Originally Posted by RyokuchaMidori

Since this a parody video post I'm going to close this to avoid any mis-interpretation and thread derailment.
