A matter of principle that will not change anything. EA sell millions of pounds worth of games a year, and a few people not buying their games will not change anything at all. I'd rather play the games I enjoy rather than miss out just to spite them - they won't even notice, but I will when people are playing NHL and I'm not.

I don't like EA, but I will buy their games all the same.

I agree with what you are all saying but I still want to buy the new FIFA, apart from the FIFA franchise all other EA games don't really interest me that much. But yeah I'm very annoyed EA have been so stubborn here. :/

Do you really think I care if they notice or not? I'm annoyed. I want to do something to demonstrate that. EA Games are the reason why Porsche aren't in the game. Therefore they're the target of my annoyance.

Porsche is the most successful manufacturer in the history of sports car racing. This is a sports car racing series. It demands the presence of Porsche.

Forza 4 claims to be the official partner of the ALMS. A series which has been won by Flying Lizard Porsche for the last 3 years, has a whole class dedicated to Porsche Supercup cars, as well as the series itself being officially sponsored by Porsche. The absence of Porsche from the game basically removes all credibility of the claim that they're the "Official Partners" of the ALMS.

In every race that I have competed in for this series (for 3 years), I have driven the Flying Lizard Porsche.

And what, we should just bow down to a massive company like EA just because they have more money than sense? Just because my £100 for their Christmas games won't be missed by them, I should give them my money anyway?

No.

Well that's your perogative, and your loss ultimately.

My loss that I'm saving £100, and not giving it to a money grabbing mega company who keep on churning out the same games year after year?

Yep, I'm losing out massively.

Alright, BF3 may well be a good game, but so what? At the end of the day, it's not going to kill me not buying a game. I'll be playing GoW3 and Forza 4 by then anyways.

Dad, are we selling Shift2 to get something better ? :D

EDIT: We actually bought that game just for the Vintage cars and tracks DLC pack... Guess I'll go play GT Legends or the Historic GT and Touring Cars mod on rFactor instead (The physics is mile away in the right direction compared to crappy Shift 2 anyway)

I also agree that not buying EA games will lead to nothing. The only thing that will change this is a direct interference by Porsche. This is making the rounds on video game websites already and most people think its BS that EA did this. It could be bad PR for Porsche but they are such a high-end company that most people who are outraged can't afford the majority of new Porsche's.

I for one will not buy new EA games. I will still gladly rent them or buy then used, but no more new ones.

What I don't get though is why bother putting the Warthog in if it's only in autovista mode and not driveable? And why put it in a racing game anyway? lol

I don't know if Dean (EMW Brisca) will look at this thread, but he should be happy to see this car announced for Forza 4 ;)

"I did what I did for the good of the realm." "The realm? Do you know what the realm is? It's the thousand blades of Aegon's enemies, a story we agreed to tell each other over and over until we forget that it's a lie." "But what do we have left once we abandon the lie? Chaos? A gaping pit waiting to swallow us all?" "Chaos isn't a pit, it's a ladder. Many who have tried to climb it fail, never get to try again. The fall breaks them. Some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse, they cling to the realm. For the gods, for love. Illusions, only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is."
