LOL $3 million net profit for EA is above analyst expectations I guess we are not the only ones with no confidence in EA.

I can only guess selling the same sports game every year with updated teams and a few graphical tweaks obviously makes a lot of money! Would love to know how they made money on mobile though as dungeon keeper and theme park where micro-transaction filled nasties.

Don't forget Plants v's Zombies (1 or 2) - both are well stuffed with IAP “opportunities”, and some of them are eye-wateringly expensive, (i.e. more than the cost of an A-list title for PC or console). That said, PvZ2 is actually a pretty reasonable game (if you resist the temptation to buy the shiny, shiny upgrades).

Exactly, there's no surprise at all when EA are actively stealing/exploiting children

$3m profit….weren't they around a billion dollars in debt recently?
