[STRAWPOLL #2] Worst Famous Gaming Company

Ubisoft

you should remove EA, and change the poll to the second worst gaming company

I was thinking EA or Activision, decided Activision.

EA used to be worse, but Ubisoft seems to do have outdone them (not in a good way).

They both have tons of bugs in their games and a crappy client, but at least EA didn't try to downgrade the graphics... UPlay is also worse than Origin IMO.

Valve should be in 3rd, just so that we know Half Life 3 is confirmed.

As of late, EA might have made some strange decisions, but they've not actually been all that consumer unfriendly. In fact, for the most part, during the last year or so, I've been quite pleased with how EA has acted towards my end of the playerbase (i.e. they gave me free games, though I can understand why the Battlefield crowd were upset by the Battlefield 4 release). Ubisoft on the other hand seem to enjoy intentionally telling lies to cover up their mistakes and not actually doing anything about the mistakes, something that no other major company seem to have been doing to any great extent as of late.

THQ is by the way dead. They can't really do much bad from beyond the grave :P

There was no point in this poll as people will always vote EA as the worst regardless of how good they become. Although I still don't like what they do with the sims games.

People keep hating on EA because it's the cool thing to hate, just like with IE, Windows 8, WiiU, etc.

At the moment Ubisoft definitely, EA is not as bad as it used to be.

Valve...you had to feed the trolls with something don't you?
I actually can't decide between EA and Ubisoft.
One killed Mass Effect 3 the other one THQ.(I guess EA got a little bonus for the free shit they have been giving)

who the heck would say valve… when we're on a website dedicated on winning steam keys….

I would love to hear peoples reasons for disliking valve…. cuz i can't think of any….

Ubisoft may have Starforce still hanging on its record, they both have Always-online so that cancels each other out, but EA still has the cloud of labor issues hanging over, which won't go away until after many years of provable good behavior. And until that happens, EA is going to remain the worst of those companies listed.

Though if Gearbox keeps up with its bad-boy behavior, it may end up giving EA a run for its money.

Valve! cs:go ign shop sucks bad as we already have bought the game but still we need to buy some shity keys to open crates... 14i5 547 n33d5 70 83 c0d3d 4ard ¡¡¡ :D

Riot.
Why? Because EA shoudln't be even an option, I don't even know why people still buy their games.
Why Riot then?Because they are a two-faced mother*****!

I'll vote Activision Blizzard. (why are Blizzard and Activision listed separately as well anyway ?)
Why ? Because they milk franchises to death, and they don't do anything really new. Or they get licensed properties that they then handle half-heartedly (see: Deadpool, Transformers - several games, only 2 really good ones). They're one of the biggest contributors to over-saturating and stagnating the gaming business.
EA is a rubbish company that makes a lot of stupid decisions (trying to merge Burnout into Need for Speed franchise, introducing online-passes etc.) but they're not too afraid to experiment and undo their mistakes (see: Kingdoms of Amalur, removing online passes, fixing the Mass Effect 3 ending for free instead of as charged DLC...)

Nexon
Use to be ok, but now the free online games became pay-to-have-fun

EA bacause of micro transactions, the second for me would be ubisoft because they are heading that way; because of the unoptimized and delayed PC releases.
