Sarcastic Gamer Boycotts Sarcastic Gamer’s Boycott of Bad Company.

April 4th, 2008 · 22 Comments

I am so sick and tired of this boycott BS. Bad Company is a good game. EA is a good company with a great history of giving back to gamers. So what if DICE chooses to ship the game with only five unlocked weapons per faction. In my opinion, I think they’re the ones that are being generous. I only need one gun to pwn teh noobs!

I just don’t understand what all of this hub bub is about.

DLC has been around forever. Why is Sarcastic Gamer getting all uppity about this. I mean, that Lono guy, what an asshole. Ranting and raving about “boycott this” and “I’m so self-righteous about that…”

What a blowhard.

If people want to buy a game and then pay another twenty dollars to unlock stuff that shipped with the game, then so be it. THIS IS AMERICA! This isn’t Russia. Let the people do what they want.

I say that EA shouldn’t be burdened with this BS Boycott. So what if they want to charge extra, for extra guns. THEY’VE ALREADY SAID THAT IT WON’T UNBALANCE THE GAME. What more do you people need? I don’t care if players may find that the DLC guns to be superior. EA SAID that it won’t unbalance the game, so who am I to argue. EA is never wrong, at least that’s what their advertising dollars tell me.

Come on guys, this is just a one-time thing for EA. They’re not going to keep doing this in all of their other games… I mean, who didn’t want to spend real money to get in game money that could only be used in The Godfather game? I mean, the stuff in that game was expensive, I needed to drop an additional 30 bucks, just to buy that special Tommy Gun that is required to finish the game. I’m not going to get mad at EA for that, I’m gonna thank them.

THANK YOU EA FOR MAKING ME PAY REAL MONEY SO I COULD FINISH GODFATHER, THE GAME.

So, here’s what I’m proposing: Boycott Sarcastic Gamer’s Boycott of Battlefield: Bad Company. Take a stand. Stop Sarcastic Gamer’s Boycott of Battlefield: Bad Company. Stop the SG Boycott BS ASAP!

It’s EA’s money in your pockets dammit. It’s time to give it up.

      i was planning on getting the game but have since changed my mind after hearing about the EXTRA content for money…. I will be boycotting this game as well out of principle. EA is just testing the water with this one, next it’ll be RACING games with half the cars unlocked while the other half AVAILABLE for PURCHASE…. i dont think so

      Being an utter noob at FPS games, I appreciate that I am able to buy weapons to pwn other noobs with. If it were not for EA’s new trend I would never be able to compete with ANYONE playing multiplayer games. Kudos to EA…empowering the weak to compete for extra money.
