Im not surprised at all! I've always felt Ea is a greedy corp. and the employee's had no say so in the matter, as far as flaws & glitche's in the games.

After reading this i've decided to put my money where my mouth is and boycott EA. Iv'e complanied long enough.

And my wish is that everyone will do the same. Im so disgusted im at a lost for words.

EA you are Despicable, Disgraceful, & Wicked.

There's going to be a lawsuit because of this.

Like the previous poster mentioned, ALL sports companies do similar things... Sega with the ESPN series, Acclaim and it's now dead ASB, 989 and it's MLB 'chise...

Wake up people...

This thing is getting pretty deep and I'm wondering just what kind of shake up this might have on EA. Hopefully these poor employees find some kind of justice from the courts, if it progresses forward no buisness as big as EA should get away with these kind of practices no matter how great people think their games may be, what they're doing and the practices concerning their employees sounds just plain crimminal to me and I hope they get whats coming to them for being so contrived and arrogant disreguarding their employees creative rights like cattle or sheep, I think its time to bring them down a notch or two and show them that there are people who read these articles and are absolutly appauled at what and how the unjustly treat their employees.

It just pisses me off how they continued to do this untill a worried and concerned spouse took it on his/her own to alert the public of via the ea_spouse postings of their unfair practices.

I'm pulling for these folks to get whats due them and get their day in court and pull the cover off of the once thought of EA as a highly respected and classy company...now to appear as some kind of crank them out in volume "Sweat Shop" of horrors...I still say shame on you EA "you're dispickable" to quote a certain looney tunes charcter...just plain sad.


Holla Back ya'll

You guys should read Valve's Half Life 2 story over at Gamespot (its about 10 pages or so but well worth it) They've been working like that for over 3 years to get HL2 out. They started on it in 99.

Wow! I guess i never really thought about game corps being like that. I have experience with other companies treating employee's like crap though.

It's really a shame how people are treated by these capitalistic corporatiopns. I hope they get theirs someday.
In the mean time people are suffering while the rich get richer.
