Who is the worse evil? Activision or EA?

EA has a draconian DRM system and is ridiculously bad at PR with gamers while Activision sets the example yearly that you don't need to make original content to make it in the gaming world and now other publishers are following suit such as Ubisoft with Assassin's Creed and EA would love to make it where Battlefield was a yearly franchise if they could have two developers instead of one developer working on the Battlefield franchise like Call of Duty's Treyarch and Infinity Ward.

Any thoughts? I like to think that Activision is Stalin while EA is Hitler, then again they're both pretty interchangeable.

EA stands for enormous [censored]s. They take the cake by far.

Ubi is the new Activision. They've milked Assassins Greed for all they can now.

All publishers are intermittently evil for trying to svck any dollar they can from the consumer. All DLC makers included, so yes, Bethesda is in that mix.

In all seriousness. I don't care. Video Game politics are horrible.

To be fair, Bethesda doesn't treat its fanbase like [censored] after they get their money. If Bethesda was owned by EA then Bethesda would never release patches for Skyrim, they would have Bethesda develop TES 6 because it has to be out by winter 2013 and there would be microtransactions for unique in-game items unobtainable by just playing the game.
