I just learned what had become of two franchises I loved, Rollercoaster tycoon and Simcity. It seems to me that they have been leeching off classic and successful IPs, filling them with microtransactions and making cheap idle games for profit.
Yes. EA has definitely done that a long time. Hasbro now owns the rights to Roller Coaster Tycoon (since they acquired what was left of Atari).
To answer the question of the post, I’d say EA, since their transgressions count an order of magnitude higher than anything Atari/Hasbro could even dream of, based on the sheer number of games/properties they own.
