Agreed!!!.. Those people who created SS should be F.I.R.E.D.! Or at least written up! But first the person who OK'd it should be. (J/K Hope you all keep your jobs through these tough EAconomic times).

Guess what though EA hardcore players made you your profit at some point, how about catering to them a little bit more.

Unless their product is Madden or NHL of course

Just read what Ben posted and Wow...You have got to be kidding me. I honestly can not believe they are backing this so hard.

The best part is him describing how they are handling "jerks" who don't play correctly by giving them poor sportsmanship scores when they take advantage of the game..

Here's a concept (now try to stay with me NCAA team)..How about you address the real issue first which is fixing gameplay, then worry about giving scores for playing the game correctly. Not the other way around..

Loosing faith quickly.

What I don't get is that college football is one of the most, if not THE most, beloved sports in our country. College football is loaded with pageantry and tradition, with pomp and circumstance. Saturdays across America crackle with electric autumn air and the sounds of shoulder pads and helmets as fans numbering sometimes in excess of a 100,000 lose their minds like they are storming the Bastille. I mean, we're talking Bear Bryant and Desmond Howard, Tony Dorsett and Joe Pa. The Option. Ohio St. vs. Michigan. The Heisman.

And yet we as video gamers and fans of college football do not get to see the game we so very much love faithfully represented in a medium we love as well. We should be cranking up our consoles to massive stadiums pulsing with feverish howling and big, thick playbooks with tons of options and customization. Coaches and assistants should carry with them vibrant, dynamic personalities just as the players should. Recruiting should be a deep, conversation-based experience. The linebackers at Penn St. should prowl the grass with weight and menace. We should tremble at the speed USC fields. We should be able to scout the golden-armed QB from some small, podunk high school. It should just be this huge, beast of a game with personality and intelligence, but most of all, it should feel like FOOTBALL.

And yet we can't even get formation subs. Instead, Season Showdown. I'm baffled.

We were lied to once why not again this year? And how can you ever expect a realistic representation of football when you have designers who play just like the little kids we play in 09' lobbies? Yet even after that rant...I will still buy this game...

Sounds eerily similar to our good friend David Ortiz.
