Dunno if you guys have heard about this but it relates to the article Donut posted up a while ago of that cock slagging off Mass Effect as some sort interactive porn game.
Apparently EA have taken offense and are doing something about it. Personally, I think I have a little bit of respect for EA for stepping forward and giving those idiot's a slap.
Full article here.

Thoughts?

EA are still nothing more than the vendor of the game.
All kudos go to Bioware for making the game and it's just a pity Parts 2 & 3 will be ruined by those Puppy's at EA (can you say KOTOR2 - the glitchiest, most incomplete SW game ever!!)

EA didn't have a hand in KOTOR 2 whatsoever, the only change was that it was made by Obsidian Entertainment not BioWare. Besides that's not the point Ryan, the point is a big Gaming Corporation like EA is tackling that big hub of bullpuppy called FoX News.
It's not about that game's they've made / Published but about the fact that they are making a public stand - Public as in.. public to people with access to the Internet >.< - against FoX news and are pwning them hard.
Also aparently EA have been invited to go on FoX news and argue the point in one of FoX's biased ass shows to the World at large trying to tackle the Sterotyping against the Gaming industry as a whole.

O course my good man.
This whole 'pr0n' idea dreampt up by them is insane and it is surely gonna turn round and bite them in the azz.
Just look at what's happening to IGN (is it) after the whole Assassin's Creed debarcal! Companies no longer have to stand for this crap as they earn as much, if not more, than most movie studios!
It will be a fine day when games such as Manhunt 2 (which I am half way through btw..it aint that good) get released here after the Rockstar fight it all the way.

The problem I think with debates like this is that its the same as trying to argue about religion (ooooooooooo controversy!  )
We can argue all we want about the the existance of god, the right to preach about it and how it affects education and law. Someone is always going to stand up and say "Believe in god!" and then someone else will say "But he's not real!". The argument will commence with neither side backing down and no conclusion made.
The same applies with gaming, Fox and EA will go at each other one way or another and in the end will anyone change their minds? The extreemests on both sides won't but maybe a few in the middle might. The overall effect, a few thousand more MB of information, just like these news reports, stored on the internet.
Won't stop us from trying though
