If you take a moment to look at their reviews, you will see that many leading apps — which are still being sold at an unprofitable $0.99 — haven’t worked in months. They crash shortly after launch, or contain game-killing bugs.

Specifically, look up the reviews for Risk, The Sims FreePlay, SimCity Deluxe, and Tetris.

I recommend a closer examination of why EA has not released upgrades or bug fixes for its leading apps in six months, and why valuable franchises are being sold at flea-market prices.
