EA's marketing department is awesome
« on: 24 Aug 2008, 20:55 »

So, there was a glitch in Tiger Woods 08 that allowed you to shoot from the middle of a water hazard.

EA has responded to this "glitch"

EA, despite having a horrible reputation on numerous fronts, actually has some really cool people working for them, who not only have some great ideas, but are empowered to execute them.   I deal with some of the folks in one of their offices pretty regularly, and you'd never know they were part of a insanely lucrative profit-engine gaming borg.   

Honest.

I like posting new threads about EA.

Just to find the people who haven't been paying attention.

Come on guys, you should know by now that Activision is the new EA (or I guess it's Acti-zzard, Blizz-o-vision, etc.)  You should be more welcoming of your new evil overlords.

This was actually released only as a viral ad, showing that EA has actually been paying attention over the last 5 years.

This is nothing but clever, new marketing guy has something going on.  And as far as good games that you didnt buy the same one it 08 on it last year.  Spore the new Rockband, Skate etc.  All great games, well I dont know about Spore but the other two are great, and with sequels on the way.
