Forza Motorsport 4 Interview - Under the Hood: Part 1 (EA Blocks Porsche From Game)

[TheWayItIS]

EA's attempt to monopolize licenses so they can put out sub par games either without competition / things missing from competitions games e.g.. PORSCHE makes me SICK, after the NCAA 12 MESS I am reconsidering my future purchases of EA products.

[Flamehead]

Yeah, sounds about right.

[ZoneBlitz]

EA is the Evil Empire of video games. They are to creativity and video game progress what the Soviet Union is to freedom and liberty. We should really boycott them.

now their terrible ways extend beyond sports titles to racing titles

[Dazraz]

I struggle to find a reason as to why EA would do this. It's not like taking the Porsche brand away from Forza is giving EA extra sales. EA are acting like a bunch of axe wielding dictators in this matter. EA develop some great games but tarnish themselves with their desire to dominate the market, not by superior products, but by harnessing exclusive rights to licences. Sadly, it's the end user that suffers through lack of choice.

I always wondered why they didn't have more classic Porsche cars like the 917, but now i know why. EA has to be one of the worst companies to deal with and are destroying future games with the dumb exclusive rights.

More reasons to dislike EA. Really hate this as Porsche is one of my favorite brands of cars.
