Hmmm... I have to vote for EA due to it's larger variety of games. And they have sports ^^
Activison really only has Call of Duty and Guitar Hero... And that's about it.

Yessssssss... I have won.
I dont need to say it, but im going to say it anyways. Activision. CoD and actually a bunch of games I played as a kid were activision. That was when I was a young game, and I thought Activision`s spinning letters were cooler than EA`s intro thing. So that started that.

tough choice. EA makes high quality sports games along with Command and Conquer, Army of Two, and Need for Speed, whereas Activision made COD, Crash and Spiro, Golden Eye, and Transformers.
my vote goes to EA by the tiniest margin

I do see EA a lot more than I see Activision when playing games. So the choice is obvious for me, EA.

Oh cool, it did become one of the battles. *goes to copy and paste my old answer*

I'd have to go with EA.

Simply put, EA has more games than Activision that I fully enjoy. Also, anything that Activision has that I enjoy, EA has something similar that I enjoy about as equally, though usually ending up surpassing the Activision game.

Activision for me that I can remember has Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, and Tony Hawk games when I used to play those skateboarding games when I was younger.

Aside from Tony Hawk (though I may not be remembering the EA skateboarding game), Call of Duty gets beat by Battlefield for me since I like the Bad Company games better, and Rockband is about as equal to Guitar Hero for me.

Past that, EA also has other games that I enjoy pretty well. Dragon Age for sure. That game was loads of fun. The Lord of the Rings games they've released have also been great, especially The Third Age. Though sometimes lacking, being a Harry Potter fan, I try to give the games at least a chance and play them a little before saying they suck. The earlier ones weren't as bad, and the newest ones aren't the worst games ever, but something almost feels lacking in them. Still good games, though. They, for me, surpass any games that Activision has put out in similar interests (sort of) like Spiderman and such. And whenever, I feel like racing, I can always rely on Burnout to be good, or if I want a change, Need for Speed games are also pretty good in my opinion.

Overall, EA has just appealed to me more so that's why my vote goes to EA.

I'm going to go with EA on this one.

1. I'm getting a huge kick out of Madden NFL 2008 and I've always enjoyed NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 (Can't beat those old titles.)

2. I'm not really a fan of activision games... I've played a couple, and they weren't too bad actually, but EA is better.

Ummm.... I can't elaborate much more then that.

When I think of EA, the only thing that stands out are the sports games.
When I think of Activision, I think of dozens of money cows.

Activision; sports games suck. Sports are meant for real life.

I prefer Activision because they made Pitfall. Great game on the ipad.

If I counted correctly, so far there are 7 votes for EA and 5 for Activision. Pretty close match.

You guys are doing better with your reasoning. Good job.

EA for me. Activision I think I only know because of Call of Duty and I do not play those that much. EA though I play because of Madden. Also I remember that EA made a Harry Potter game that I loved and had hours on.
