Free EA Games

I thought Mirrors Edge got quite repetitive quite quickly.
Need for Speed was ok but not as good as Real Racing.
Sim City I enjoyed but it was just a demo and took quite a bit of time to work out the menus.
Similarly for Command and Conquer, it was a good demo but nothing more.
I'm tempted by the discount on Plants Vs. Zombies though — 69p today.

All these in app purchasing in EA games is awful
Problem is there are idiots out there that will **** away money on pointless crap like this, until these people get a clue, EA will keep doing it.
Indeed
They should probably name it "Farmville Syndrome"

I hate (with a passion) In App Purchases. Saw a 'free' app the other day that looked quite interesting - check the optional IAPs and there was one in there for £69.99!!!!! Disgusting. Will NEVER buy an app that has that attached to it.
It was just some crappy game too, nothing special.

I deleted Zombie Farm for exactly this reason. If you're not willing to spend £££ on IAPs it's just utterly, utterly infuriating and pretty much not fun at all.
It was when I got to the second boss and he wiped me easily that I gave up with it. I could almost hear the game wagging it's finger and going "Now, if you'd spent real money on upgrades that wouldn't have happened, silly you" and decided that I should give up before I sling my phone very hard somewhere.

A lot of EA's games are like that, Theme park costs something like £8 for a rollercoaster, you can ride a real rollercoaster for less!
LOL a fool and his money are easily parted and all that.

I think hardnews said that it would take some ridiculous amount of time to get the rollercoasters without buying them, quite a big hoo hah about it.
This is just like the DLC for any other game, nothing special. What I hate is that you pay for a game, and AT RELEASE there is DLC. Surely it would be a better game if they spent that time they spunked on doing DLC into development. Very annoying and completely money grabbing attitude of publishers nowadays.
Moral compass is all wrong.

I don't mind it as long as its not
1. Necessary to enjoy the game
and
2. Not overly expensive
.. its like £38 for a roller coaster on Theme Park, madness.

Are there any EA games worth buying? Or do I follow my policy for most EA games and stay the hell away from them?!

I reckon FIFA is worth a shout at 69p. Anyone experienced the controls on the iPad?

Can't stand football so I don't think that's for me lol
Get Peggle, is great!
I picked up Scrabble and Monopoly in a previous sale, both quite good, the dictionary in Scrabble can be rubbish occasionally and won't recognise perfectly legit words but not like I'm on Countdown and for 69p who can moan really.
I'd like Fifa but I find any real games that require a directional controller and multiple buttons almost impossible on the iPad.
