In an interesting turn of events, the Facebook page for the massive publishing giant EA Games has been the target of a massive trolling attack that involves images of some rather disturbing content. This content ranges from pornography to gore and even what looks like it might be child pornography.

We would advise for customers to not search the EA Facebook page for the time being until this mess has been cleaned up. A sample screenshot of the attack can be seen below. I have taken the liberty of cleaning the images, but I may have missed some of the content, look at your own risk. Click for full-size.

Mila takes down her Dead or Alive 5 competition in her first screenshots
