gaming EA Games Makes Guinness Book Of World Records

[Denim&Venöm 16,471]

So congratulations to Electronic Arts for making it into the Guinness Book of World Records, thanks to their installment of Star Wars: BattleFront II. 

Or rather, one of their Reddit comments released on behalf of the game made it in. 

Good luck breaking that record.

The way Bethesda's treating the fans of their games, I have a feeling it's quite possible they might break it.  To be honest I'd be surprised if they didn't have a post that had at least 500k downvotes somewhere on Reddit. That of course isn't to say I don't hate Reddit though, because I do.

Good work, Electronic Arts!

Actually the second most downvoted comment is closer to 90K downvotes. Nobody is touching EA's debacle and hopefully no one ever will.

I only have one thing to say regarding this topic: LOL

[Cash In 21,493]

I really can't say that I'm suprised about this, considering a lot of their questionable decisions, in addition to that particular comment.

Is this real? Really? Why would Reddit be so important to Guinness Book of World Records in the first place, for this to happen?

My guess is because this was a huge amount of downvotes. Like Denim said, the 2nd most downvoted comment has around 90,000 or so, while this one was approaching 700,000 and that is a massive jump. Another point, though I am not well acquainted with what's in the book but aren't there records for all sorta of random stuff? Might as well throw this in the pile too since it probably won't be beaten for a loooooong time.

Wish there was a record for most hated company because I think they would be up there.

[AveryGamerDude 4,640]

I bet I can guess which company has the most upvoted comment. (Also, am I the only one who actually liked EA's Battlefront 2? Yes? Okay... )

Now this is sure to be a black eye on EA's already damaged reputation. Then again, they might not even care about it given their practices.

Well, that's a very specific record. 

[Veil 259]

I should give them one more downvote.

[ShadOBabe 18,984]

LOL, serves them right. Almost makes me want to go make a Reddit account just so I can contribute.

Not sure it COULD drop any lower at this point. And they don't care, because people still give them money for loot boxes.

[Oleks 1,983]

EA deserves it. I miss the time when we could fully enjoy video games without any loot boxes and DLCs.

Also, is it normal that it's 2019 and I have no idea how to use Reddit?

[Megas 27,052]

bfhahaha, get fucked EA

[SparklingSwirls 21,261]

Well, no publicity is bad publicity . 

[Flutterstep 46,212]

EA can only go uphill from here, but they won’t. 

[PoisonClaw 8,153]

What an odd world record to have... huh.

And EA still wonders why they're seen as the bad guys. 

[Here No Longer 5,270]

If anyone's going to ever break this record, it'll be Bethesda, we can be sure of that...  Todd "It Just Works" Howard is a greedy, conniving piece of work that has absolutely no concern for Bethesda's fanbase.  To be honest, with some of what the company's done to other companies, Mr. "It Just Works" ought to be in f***ing jail.

[Castle Bleck 19,164]

Congratulations on your medal of dishonor.

 

[Dark Qiviut 22,160]

LoL! Why am I not surprised? Double-down on your greed, expect the barrage of downvotes.

If EA qualifies as the worst company, you're not looking hard enough. There are companies that are worse than EA.

Oh sure there are likely worse companies in the grand scheme of things, but EA has like straight up won a few “Worst Company in America” awards via vote.

I think they reason that they piss people off so much is because they screw with people’s “Happy Places”. People go to video games to unwind from the stress of the world, and then BAM, there’s EA making it suck.
