CS:GO is a valve title not EA. I was specifically referring to EA.That aside..

CS:GO was only a repackaging of CS expansion which itself was a repackaging of CS half-life mod from 1998.

Sure 14 years later the graphics engine was a little updated and there were new maps, but I played a lot of the original and after installing CS:GO I was supremely underwhelmed by the lack of change.

It takes two looked great, but there are just so many games out there I still feel ok having missed it.

Mirrors edge was 2008.

It's okay to blacklist an entire publisher.

I haven't bought any games from EA at all since 2013 and know I missed nothing because it's all just reruns of the same game formula.

I don't think they need to be pushy, just the quality of product decisions has been going down as time goes on. Monopoly a bigger issue for sure, If not for the massive decline in value to both users and advertisers, we wouldn't mind the monopoly so much.

Google must be scraping the bottom of the barrel of crazy that's also stupid enough to pay for ads, I think it's common knowledge now that Google games analytics to artificially inflate the appearance of ad impact.

Ah yes that's where their development resources for all the last 5 years went: fucking up the paid experience with minor tweaks and fucking up the free experience with major tweaks.

I pay for this shit for my whole family and don't know a service with anywhere near the same library, I'd jump ship in a heartbeat to a service with both a complete music library and a first-class podcast listening experience for web/PC users.
