Will it be the same-old, same-old? Or maybe, just maybe, EA will actually lose?

 

[Blablurn]

good luck EA ! seaworld is probably the biggest opponent.

 

[Phediuk]

Most obvious threepeat since 90s Chicago Bulls.

 

[Into]

Maybe Comcast can give them a fight this time around

But yeah EA is Miami Heat of this

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Thing is so dumb. There are far worse companies than video game companies.

 

[friskykillface]

I'd give it every internet provider in America

they are much worse then EA

 

[Sho Nuff]

Worse than Monsanto?

Kinda weird USAir isn't on there

 

[okayfrog]

[m@cross]

Comcast might be worse, Monsanto is easily the worst of all though.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Bank of America got a pretty soft bracket.

 

[hitsugi]

Time Warner, Comcast, or Verizon should take this.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

There are so many more deserving candidates on that list that it would be sad if EA won again.

 

[Skeff]

Wouldn't be surprised to see an ea vs. ms final.

 

[Syf]

Stiff competition, but you can do it EA!

 

[JesseEwiak]

I'm guessing a group of nerds will continue to think making games they don't like with features they don't want is worse than wage theft by companies like McDonald's and Wal-Mart, attempting to pass far-right political policies, and the general screwing by the various banks listed.

 

[Nome]

Farce vote of the century, let's go!

 

[jbug617]

Comcast should win.

 

[Kyoufu]

I wonder if MS will get any votes after the bad PR last year.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

EA deserves it more than ever.

 

[shwimpy]

Thing is so dumb. There are far worse companies than video game companies.

Who cares? This is all for fun. Nothing changes if you "win". Look at EA... how they continually got worse after winning two times in a row is beyond me.

 

[MattPeters]

Whats wrong with Seaworld? Did I miss some big controversy?

 

[Antilurker77]

Some of those companies on that list have done actual damage. There like an entire tier of terrible above EA.

 

[KojiKnight]

I'm personally over EA, I'm ready to vote Paypal/Ebay.

 

[WrenchNinja]

I hope they win again just so people will be pissed off that a real bad company didn't

 

[Kyari]

Its pretty ridiculous they're going to win this again just for making anti-consumer games.

 

[BPoole]

So Monsanto, Comcast, and Koch are in this too? EA better not win. Though it is weird that Time Warner is in it despite Comcast absorbing them.

Also, seems EA and MS are the only gaming related companies that are in the running this year

 

[djplaeskool]

Actually rooting Comcast this year, though more than before, EA deserves it.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Just because it eats people alive and pisses them off I'm so voting for EA to get a third reign.

 

[Quadraphonic]

Wow. They put in EA into the tough bracket right at the start. I think Consumerist is tired of a gaming company winning over a company that poisons people or makes people homeless.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I'm pulling for Comcast and Time Warner. That merger is dirty.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Whats wrong with Seaworld? Did I miss some big controversy?

[DedValve]

Whats wrong with Seaworld? Did I miss some big controversy?

Black Fish.

 

[Chamber]

Is this another thread for people to pretend Wells Fargo or Wal-Mart winning the "Golden Poo" award would actually change things for the better?

 

[lazybones18]

Whats wrong with Seaworld? Did I miss some big controversy?

Blackfish documentary

 

[mnannola]

Every year I think "Geeze how can a video game company win this, its just video games. Next year I am sure another company will win"

Then they just go on a spree of bone-headed moves all year long. I think they are a lock for the three-peat.

 

[SolidSnakex]

I'm guessing a group of nerds will continue to think making games they don't like with features they don't want is worse than wage theft by companies like McDonald's and Wal-Mart, attempting to pass far-right political policies, and the general screwing by the various banks listed.

Sure, and if this award actually meant anything of significance then EA wouldn't have a chance. But that's not the case. We're talking about an award called "The Golden Poo". We're talking about an award that the Consumerist posted this image for

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

The Michael Jordan of customer dissatisfaction

 

[Doran902]

Whats wrong with Seaworld? Did I miss some big controversy?

Watch Blackfish on Netflix. Animal harassment / covering up trainer deaths / poaching.

EA is worse than ever but they still shouldn't win. Some of these companies ruin peoples lives.

 

[Impeccable]

EA will win because of undereducated, angry gamers like the past few years.

 

[caustictoast]

Honestly I'd say TWC is worse than EA. I'd have them lose in the first round. My champ would definitely be Monsato. Just the worst of the worst.

 

[OnionPowder]

I love when people take the Golden Poo award too seriously.

 

[Talamius]

EA is certainly a shitty video game publisher, but there's companies that are far worse on that board.

Comcast? Monsanto?

 

[exmachina64]

Hope EA wins again.

 

[backflip10019]

Time Warner Cable is LEAGUES worse than EA.

 

[Paches]

Farce vote of the century, let's go!

You know this vote doesn't decide anything, right? Like, it's kind of a big joke.

 

[A-V-B]

EA is certainly a shitty video game publisher, but there's companies that are far worse on that board.

Comcast? Monsanto?

I think the point of this poll is affecting companies who could actually get scared by winning it. Guys like Comcast and Monsanto probably don't give two root tootin patooties about it.

 

[Gowans]

Anyone who would vote foe EA or MS in this are idiots.

Some of the US networks have behaved terribly with net neutrality and throttling services.

 

[OG Loc]

Whew, EA has a pretty stacked region this year. They just might get upset.

 

[Host Samurai]

EA can't be worse than Time Warner.

 

[BUNTING1243]

I really can't believe people think EA is worse than Bank of America, Koch, A&F, Ticketmaster, AT&T, or Comcast. It's shocking really.
