Watch that, and then seriously tell the world that EA is not dragging the gaming industry through the muck... Why can't these people just grow the hell up? Those were some of the most tasteless ads I've seen in my life.  -------------------- Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning? |

I agree with the part about marketing M rated games to teenagers but other than that I think its an overreaction of the creator of the video.

That was definitely thought provoking, but the only EA title I play is Tiger Woods Golf on the Wii. As long as they keep making that, I'll be happy.

I have to agree with the Escapist fellows here. These ads and publicity stunts are the only ways non-gamers actually get to experience games, and if these experiences are all immature, negative and down right stupid then theres no way those people are gonna ever accept it as a proper medium for the transferring of ideas.

It seems like Visceral Games has a shitck about being pretend controversial. They shouldn't do this fake bull, they should just let it happen. Take a note from Randy guys. The real deal is so much better.
