Why They and Their Games Rock

Them

Like Codemasters, they're one of the good examples of AAA developers.
They've made some great games like the Battlefield series and Mirror's Edge.
They've even developed with Criterion Games: Need For Speed Hot Pursuit.
They created the Frostbite engine.
Most of their games have great online multiplayer.
Like Vicarious Visions, they still hold up their legacy today, even though they make nothing but Battlefield.

Their Games

Good graphics.
Awesome soundtrack.
Responsive controls.
Intricate story writing.
Good voice acting.

Bad Qualities

They've made some bad games like Shrek and Battlefield V. (Shrek came out before EA bought them).
Nowadays they're making absolutely nothing but Battlefield games.
Star Wars Battlefront II had lots of bad microtransactions at launch.
Since EA owns them, you will have to buy some content.
