How about if I leave an all negative message about EA right now. Then you leave an all positive one when you read this. I hate how they are gobbling up companies right and left and releasing some very buggy products under their "affiliated labels" and don't test the products themselves. I hate how they don't update the Deluxe Series, or improve them with the times, as much as they should. I hate the manual for Ferrarri Formula One. I hate how they gripe about piracy, but have yet to do anything themselves, as a company to help control the problem, other than copy protection. I told EA about an outfit in a magazine that rented software (copies nonetheless). They dpid nothing – the rep just shrugged his shoulders. I hate how they ALWAYS pester dealers to buy direct from them instead of from distributors.f I hate how they release a piece of junk software, then lower the price 45 days later before you've had a chance to stock balance them, and you're stuck. I hate SkyFox II. It's the most horrid piece of software written by man, except perhaps Racing Destruction Set. How's that?
