Trixie to EA: You’re Raping Gamers

Submitted by on November 3, 2006 – 7:24 am5 Comments

Did you see the teenager who confessed to raping his mother? Either he’s watched way too many French films, or he works for EA.

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

    Oh man, that’s a really inappropriate and insensitive comment to make on their corporate site. I don’t think that post will be up for very long.

    Funniest thing I’ve read in quite some time

    Sure enough, it’s been deleted. By the way, Major Nelson’s blog is not part of MS, but because Major works for MS, he has to be careful about the stuff he posts.

    I applaud Trixie’s courage to say it like it is even if it’s on her boss’s site. It’s always good to see someone on the inside with negative opinions towards the obviously bad decisions made by greedy corporate pigs. MS is also to blame for not enforcing a fair pricing model or for even allowing micro transactions of content which resides in the game.

    I’m sure she got in trouble for this, but regardless of the consequences, we need as many people as possible to speak out against this kind of behavior before it becomes a trend and eventually, normal and expected.

    very true and to all the people out there that says well you don’t HAVE to buy it you can just unlock it. But sooner or later the only way to get some stuff will be to purshase it.

    All these game companies are seeing what they can get away with, I just hope people are not buying this crap, it will only egg them on to do this more.
