No those awards have nothing to do with what they produce, but how they answer the survey sent out.

A survey? So in other words EA could have blatantly lied and they wouldn't have done anything to verify it? It's certaintly in-character for them - it's not the first time they've used LGBT as a shield against criticism.

It's how all those things are done, I got a survey for my company for an award like the one EA just won. The surveys are supposed to be confidential but who knows if EA may have influenced it.

The Human Rights Campaign is the big champion for LGBT rights in the nation, and EA has been very supportive of gay representation in games (mainly BioWare), and their employee treatment policies do reflect that (I looked once). While EA just sucks as a company, it's a good place to work mainly because one can work there without the fear of being judged by who you are.

Walmart actually has something similar; the only real problem is that because stores are so wide-spread and managers often try to push their own agendas--as well as poor employees are too frightened to challenge them.

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 = ???

The fact that DICE has now placed all future Battlefield 4 DLC and other projects like Star Wars: Battlefront on hold until the shooter is fixed is also under scrutiny.


So they can't fix their mistake?

I mean sue away but still that's a bit of a low blow

Meh, not a big thing. Battlefield 4 wasn't even in China to begin with.
