In short, not me.

so then going by that logic do you even buy video games? And if so why if this is the mentality you have?

Heck no, this year's game let me down with no improved AI. Also, next year is going to be when I get Madden after taking 2 years off. And ima wait on that to see how that gameplay is.

I won't. Been burned too many times. I'm enjoying FIFA now and I'm always excited for NBA2k. I'll pass until EA gets their act together.

If not on release, shortly after. I love '12.

Yes, but not on release day. I wait til all patches and a price drop, or I just skip altogether. It's not like I have to have new games every year......

I probably well, though I would like to wait the problem with NCAA is it is the unofficial start of the football season to me. Hockey is long gone by that point and I am not a baseball fan. So when I see NCAA on the shelf it is the sign to me that football is here. That and the conference realignment, new teams added (Hopefully, Umass & The new sunbelt teams will be added next year.) I am curious to see what the game will be like.

I can't believe this is a thread. Mods need to get in here and take control.

Lock this until at least January lol

Most likely not. However I expected a buggy game the first few months, and usually pre-order anyways, but this year was terrible 2 updates and the game is really mediocre.

I think next year I'll wait a week or two and see how bad the bugs are before I decide.
