I hate Emosoft(micro), because they like to play god and I only use them because thats what games run off.
I hate Intel for ad techniques and a horrible prescott
I hate EA, because they ruin games and don't learn.
About all the gamming complaints: I've been there and thats pretty much why I don't play anything online except real time strategy games, they're so much less frustrating unless the game has bad AI.
