EA All-in on Microtransactions [Feb 27, 2013, 08:51 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Develop reports on comments from Electronic Arts during a Morgan Stanley Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference stating that the company is so pleased with its forays into the world of microtransactions, that they are bringing the support for these in-house, and that "all" their future games will feature microtransactions. "We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way; to get to a higher level," said EA CFO Blake Jorgensen. "And consumers are enjoying and embracing that way of business."

How do we stop this new generation of dumb ass kids and parents from supporting this shit? How do we stop kids/parents from sinking money into this type of shit?
Anyone? Anyone know how?
We can't. The mongoloids outnumber us, they have money, and they want to play games too. Someone will gladly take their money in exchange for a game that I probably couldn't be paid to play. All you can do is support the games you actually enjoy to ensure that there are alternatives to video game barbarism; because the very existence of something terrible like Call of Duty will not prevent games like FTL from being made.
