I remember hearing somewhere about some kid who got a hold of his parent's credit card and used it to buy tons and tons of upgrades for an EA game. Predictably, EA got very rich, and the kid's parents got very poor. Even I have to question the idea of microtransactions to get lame boosts or patches. EA will probably ask us for a credit card for each line of code they put into a patch. To me, that's exactly like Superman burning your house to the ground and then asking for your wallet to put out the fire, and then maybe the gold fillings in your teeth to rebuild the house.

I do wonder whether EA is actually ironing out the bugs in their games of if they're just ironing the dollar bills they're receiving for their trashy games.
