Origin already IS malware since it spies on other people's systems and has access to any information they want to get off of you. The fact that it can be manipulated by an external source to do much worse has got to be the most fucked up thing ever. Seriously, if I ever needed any more reason to not have Origin on my system, shit just got real.

Let that sink in for a bit.

EDIT: EA has been nominated for the Worst Company of America AGAIN.

Scarily enough, Steam has more or less the exact same vulnerability.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Lemme quote an article on the topic that was already posted some time ago for you, Arem.

And there's also that image BL posted, which suggests that Riccitiello was actually fired, rather than him choosing to resign/step down as CEO.

His note to employees said it was because he felt he hadn't done enough for the company's bottom line.

New CEO is named Mike Rowe Tran. </sarcasm>

EA hires Anita Sarkeesian to direct Mirror's Edge 2. Not write, direct. And as if that in of itself wasn't crazy enough, this was one of the things she had to say:

“I can relate to a lot of fellow female gamers who did not get into this game due to its difficult controls”
In case we're not all on the same page, we're talking about THAT Anita Sarkeesian.

Well Faith did seem a little....asexual, but this Anita woman just seems like she's riding the wave from this shit to be the champion of female gamers.

Ladies, you deserve better than some grandstander.

Yeah, no. See, I might have been willing to buy Mirror's Edge 2 for the sake of the original game, because lord knows neither EA nor Dice deserves my money. Now though? Fuck it, it's going to be a train wreck of bullshit.

Oh dear god no. We do not need a poser like this twit directing a game with a female protagonist, or any protagonist for that matter. There's already plenty of examples of strong women in video games and the perfectly sane designers and writers who made them (With Samus being my personal favorite until Other M screwed up her characterization and made her this weak man-subservient to the point of stupidity character with shoddy VA work.) I didn't really consider getting Mirror's Edge before, but now I'm never going to touch it.
