Feedbackula - EA Online Pass Paranoia!

It's not about EA and wanting to make a profit, every company in the world wants to make a profit and we should want every company in the world to make a profit, why because we all benefit from it.  But it's the way EA goes about making their money and this could be said for a lot of gaming companies about how they are making their profit.  DLC's, DRM, online play only, codes, MMO's and F2P models, talking about cyptic here, not choice of a sub for DnD neverwinter.  Your games are already overpriced, but yet you still want to nickel and dime the customer to death.  I say fuck you and your shit. 

Again I will say it, stop buying new games at full price.  Buy used or buy them a year later for under $10 much more satisfying.

So... With the X1 implementing fees on all used games and Sony leaving it up to the publisher... How paranoid were we again?

... Right.

So it turns out that EA probably scrapped online pass because they knew of Microsofts evil plan to block the use of all pre-owned games unless a fee is paid. You can tell the world has gone mad when the tinfoil hat wearers are 100% correct.

@6:03 Johnny, with the always on kinect 2 EA could be watching our every move when we play their games.

Make the Xbox One episode an extra long special. Come on, we are ready. We can take it!

Man, I can't wait for the Feedbackula on Xbox1.
The thing is, 99% of the comments are negative... lol
Funny that this episode is about EA droping Online Pass.
Two weeks later Microsoft put Online Pass on everything... :)

Johnny, like Ali G and Dennis Pennis before you, you have become a victim of your own sharp-tongued success. When people actually hope to be singled-out for ridicule on future instalments of Feedbackula, we really have fallen through the looking glass. Now bend me over and call me an asshat.

JOhnny,

I hope you make an extra long episode about the Xbox One reveal...as many rats and PISS4 lemmings are already calling the winner of the next gen.  Thankfully they'll be leading the charge with....a controller....and some pretty CG cutscenes for future games.

LEMMINGS!!!!!!  

As for a more level headed person, such as I, I'll wait till E3 before I make my complete decision regarding the Xbox $one and the PISS4..

If you use this, please make sure it's a deep manly voice that reads it...

The next Feedbackula is going to be totally epic!

this video is annoying as hell. im glad they got rid of that stupid online pass. 

Hahahahahaha, what a funny joke, calling people with logical fear of EA doing something behind the scenes tinfoil heads! Terrific! Say, whats your comment about EA having an exclusive deal with MS on theyr new used games blocking console again?

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny.........you must be pretty embarrassed right now, since every naysayer was right about EA with the reveal of the Online Pass 2.0 (times one million) that is Xbox One.

Don't get me wrong - I enjoy Feedbackula. Everyone likes to see the Illiterati taken down a peg or two and I think Johnny's a witty and engaging host, but I'm puzzled by the show's redesign. What's the relevance of a Wild West theme when the name of the show is a play on the title of Bram Stoker's most famous creation (something that was reflected in the previous 'horror' Feedbackula theme)? Then there's the Mariachi music and the Día de Muertos skulls. Perhaps the title of the show could be changed. 'The Good, The Bad and Feedbackula'? 'Once Upon a Time in the Web'? 'True Shit'? I dunno.

That moment you realize that you labeled people as paranoid and it turns out they were right.

da hell is up with this guy?  EA deserves all the hate it's getting.  and hell no we shouldn't be foolish enough to think they don't have another trick or 200 up their greedy sleeves.

i didn't logon on Origin for a year because i got arrow in my knee from EA

That burp came from the soul Jonneh, I know it.

I love the new voices. Please pick random unrelated people around the office and off the street to read the lines more in future ';,,;'

You know whats great about being a PC gamer. Is that steam takes care of us. Valve is the future... soon we will Crush EA.... its just a matter of time.

BURRRRRRRRRRRP!

Oh man this was hilarious

The core idea of feedbackula is for people like you to write comments, thus increasing content for Gamespots web-site... and in turn increasing or consistently maintaining Search Engine Rankings for Google, Yahoo and Bing.

I was eating when Johnny burped THANK YOU FOR RUINING MY APPETITE !!!! D:

why the mexican music..wtf?

Great!

Now ubisoft needs to stop their online pass crap as well, only then will the my faith in gaming companies be restored

Paranoia? This show looks like it was made by request of EAs, to try to calm their COSTUMERS (angry and unhappy).

There is so much subject to be talked... Really? F. this company. Let us complain, and let them improve their behaviour, its their job and it is OUR money that supports it.

Adam Jensen at the end LOL :)

I love the emphasis on bad grammar this show has.

Was with ya till the sarcastic comment over EA being whores to maximize profits.  There is a line where things go too far.  It's not ok or acceptable just because everyone does it.  Nor because there is a flaw in capitalism that people overlook because they like to picture themselves as the one benefiting from it.  

Also contradictory to the over all idea that the big budgets of AAA games are hurting the industry.

haha great show. Still don't understand the west-mex theme that has been on the last couple though :\

EA took my first born son when they passed over Egypt I didn't feel like buying digital goats blood to paint on my door for $9.99... Did you know digital products are considered leased to you rather then you owning them?

Dodged that bullet.

Well they do try to change policy by taking the money they get for online passes and shelling it out to groups with certain agendas.... so... Yea they are in fact trying to change our everyday life that has nothing to do with video games...

Well considering the next gen consoles don't play used games. The online passes would become kinda useless. Nice try EA.

Love the voices!  They get better every time.  Hilarious show, thanks again for the laughs!

I guess there's no feedbackula next week then? lol. 

This host is too funny for me!!! I'm laughing to my own death.

That was pretty good but a lot of hash comments in that video about EA. I feel you should have gave them a little more credit for that.

cannot please eve...*burp*

WHY APOLOGIZE!?!?
