i think by now everyone here does, or at least should, understand we are the minority. Like you said, its the marketing idiots who think adding stupid things like Heisman mode is more important than real things that matter.
What they fail to understand is that the game is going to sell no matter what. It's the only college football game on the market. Honestly, they could put the same game out with updated roster and not tell anyone and still sell millions of copies. But they continue to lose their hardcore audience when they basically ignore the people who want to put things in that actually would make the game better.
And like you said, all of these websites want to keep peace with EA because otherwise EA won't give them interviews or exclusives. So you don't see EA getting ripped as much for their mediocre games until you go into the forums and then you really get a feel for what people really think. A lot of these sites, like IGN, have people who aren't even big into sports reviewing this game and people are expected to trust what that person thinks?
It's frustrating that even if you don't buy the game your voice isn't going to be heard because the $60 you spend on the game will hardly be noticed in the millions they make. So you either skip the game, which IMO wasn't a big deal last year since the game sucked and i sold it back after a month and didn't miss it at all, or you buy the game, get disappointed and like you said, start the cycle all over next year.
It's bad enough they essentially ignore the hardcore gamers (even though they promote like hell on hardcore gaming sites where the hardcore games go for the info and are the majority of the people who stay on the lookout for every new article/pic/video out there), but to ignore the hardcore gamers AND put out a product full of bugs and glitches that make it unplayable until a patch is released a month after the game is out is ridiculous.
But like you said, most of us will just take it on the chin again this year.
