EA has single-handedly ruined many a great gaming franchise by using their revenue approach, and even in design, and deserve the scrutiny they have received.
EA in turn can blame that on the purchasing habits of their customers, and their obligation to churn revenues to pay their bills. And to pay their investors.
Lets also give some allowance for the fact that its hard to follow up a franchise with even better games and you need to generate revenue to pay your programmers etc.
They are sitting on a goldmine and are producing awful games which ruin the value of their acquired IP. I think for me Dungeon Keeper was the breaking point. EA has to do better, or they're going to die.
