[QUOTE=MightyMax;37344973]Because EA.[/QUOTE]
First thing that came to my mind.
Sure it could be EA, but I'd say it's because causal games are in the shitter right now (See also Zynga)
Once infected with EA, you only have a few years to live.

It's like you fucking morons don't even read. In the first fucking line it says that [B]Popcap[/B] did it themselves.

Influenced by EA

No, you people do this ever time there's news about a game or a game company owned by EA. everyone says "lol ea is teh shittest cumpinee ebur xD" or "omg anuthr gam suries rooind bi EA!!!!!!11", and lets not forget "fuken ea i wunder wich serees dey'll raep neckst stuped fags!!!11".
You act like EA is run by the fucking devil and I'm sick of it, You don't even make sure you're accusing them of the correct things, such as DRM or DLC, stupid DLC is Activison's thing and stupid DRM is Ubisofts thing, but you sling shit about DRM and DLC at EA despite the DLC being reasonably priced and the DLC no worse then Steam.
Are you okay?

Calm down, we have good reason to blame EA, they're huge dicks. You're sounding like a fanboy.

Not to mention it was already on the disk.
and before you say "OH BIOWARE DID THAT, EA HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT" they did because they rushed the game.

The only thing that was on the disk was the character and not the mission.
[QUOTE=Wootman;37346568]The only thing that was on the disk was the character and not the mission.[/QUOTE]
so you payed 10$ for one whole mission.
you don't see a problem with this?

Of course I do it's overpriced I was just correcting a mistake.
The mission was short too.
I loved PvZ so I hope the second one is awsum too.

While I think the EA hate is a bit over the top, so too are you. It's not hard to believe that when EA shuts down and/or guts multiple studios (Bullfrog, Origin, Pandemic, Westwood) and [B]wholly owns Popcap[/B], that something like this would come from the top.
That said Wikipedia says they employed like 400 people. 400 for casual games! Sounds like the downsizing was needed.
Why would they lay anyone off? They're not in any financial trouble.
