A lot of people were up in arms about the fact that EA beat companies like BP (Gulf of Mexico oil spill) and Bank of America (contributed to the GFC) to the title but I'm okay with it. I'm not trying to say what EA did was worse, but rather that they offended a lot more people who are likely to vote on such an Internet poll. The average 15-25 year old, who I'm sure would make up a lot of the votes on this poll, is far more likely to be concerned about SimCity launch problems rather than an environmental disaster on the other side of the country or by a credit crunch. Not trying to say that this mentality is right, merely trying to justify and clarify how it came about.
