EA website

Dist · 2 Jun 2008 at 01:24

Is anyone else currently having issues with the EA website? i can go to pages within the EA domain like http://www.ea.com/information.jsp, but if i try to go to www.ea.com i just get the opera invalid URL error:

The URL http://www.ea.com, www.ea.com/ea/http://www.electronicarts.co.uk/ contains characters that are not valid in the location they are found.

Im guessing that the EA index page must be using some bugged redirect script or something that redirects to an invalid URL?

Indeed EA.com doesn't work for me either.

The hamsters powering their servers must be tired.

Still doesn't for me.

Although a proxy loads it fine.
They must have dns issues or owt.

EDIT, they screwed Internet explorer users, works fine for me in Firefox :mad:

and still page cannot be displayed in iexplorer 7.

It's not just IE that is screwed, its opera too. So its not like EA can just blame people for trying to use rubish browsers to access their site, because opera is a decent browser.

www.ea.com works fine for me in IE7 (takes me to a language/location page)

The EA website has never worked properly >.< I remember selling Skate on the 360 because the damn website wouldn't let me sign in to look at my videos etc.
