EA Bad Company?

EA's profits have been on the slide for a while now. Years of releasing annual updates to its sports titles are wearing a little thin with gamers. Then buying up talented development houses and stifling their creativity until all the talent departs hasn't helped matters either.

EA promises to learn from its mistakes and change its ways... but in the mean time it needs to increase its profits. One way it's doing this is by releasing a shed load of downloadable content for its games. Want the best weapons for the upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company? That'll cost extra. A dangerous route to go down as all that game balancing comes undone as players buy themselves an advantage instead of just trying to get better.

Anyway, I thought in for a penny in for a pound. Lets help EA with some great rip off money making ideas for their next release... How about only allowing you to save your game 5 times, with additional packs of 5 saves available for a small fee?

Maybe you've got some better ideas to help EA out. Head over to the GAMEOV3R forum and share them with us.
