美国"Consumerist"网站最近举行了一次类似于锦标赛一样的评选活动,由网站读者投票决定他们认为的美国最渣企业。结果EA荣获殊荣。
EA在最后一轮的投票中胜过了美国银行拔得头筹。网站写道:“在超过25万张投票中,Consumerist的读者们最终认为本应该为世界带来乐趣的EA要比美国银行更加贪婪。”
Consumerist 网站的“全美最渣企业奖”投票活动始于2007年。
对于这份大奖,EA为自己辩解道:“我想银行总裁,石油,烟草和军火公司应该为自己没有进入今年的提名名单而感到庆幸。我们会继续制作大奖游戏,为全球超过3亿玩家提供服务。”
The website Consumerist recently held a tournament-style campaign where fans could vote for what they think is the worst company in America. Publisher Electronic Arts won.
EA beat out Bank of America for the honor in the final round of voting. "After more than 250,000 votes, Consumerist readers ultimately decided that the type of greed exhibited by EA, which is supposed to be making the world a more fun place, is worse than Bank of America's avarice, which some would argue is the entire point of operating a bank," the website said.
Consumerist began its "Worst Company in America" reader poll in 2007. Past winners include: RIAA, Countrywide Financial, AIG, Comcast, and BP.
“We’re sure that bank presidents, oil, tobacco and weapons companies are all relieved they weren’t on the list this year," EA said in a statement sent to Game Informer. "We’re going to continue making award-winning games and services played by more than 300 million people worldwide.”
