Why does it matter? You know he'll answer questions once he has time and has played it enough.

Don't forget these guys have day jobs and some have families also. It doesn't leave much time to test and give a ton of impressions during the week. I would think it might pick up a little when the weekend arrives....

Re: Why are you not Responding to questions about the Beta Copy

I'll get to it as quickly as I can. Please remember, we're unpaid volunteers, folks - that means we have jobs and families to support. I expect to be able to answer more questions within the next 24 hours at worst.

As far as it having to with anything FatPitcher said -

I'm a professional, folks - and I've been doing this for years. I'll continue to do what I've always done; give you unbiased, factual information on sports games as soon as I possibly can. Nothing anybody says is ever going to change that.

LMAO, that's exactly what i was thinking.

When a couple of forum members call a staff writer a fanboy, i usually ignore it.
When a developer says a staff writer is blatantly giving out false information, i sit up and listen. I think he made a VERY key point about these OS people spending a lot of time trying to make MVP live up to their review of it, as evidenced by more than a few remarks in the MVP forum with regard to criticisms that were blatantly glossed over or ignored altogether, and a few overly snide and outright rude comments made to dissenters there.

Also supicious is the fact that they keep repeating the same thing: "we've neer been called EA fanboys before!" Like that somehow absolves them of the criticisms leveled against them, or that it in some way proves conclusively that they didn't overestimate MVP. MVP does some things this year that these people would have crucified ESPN over, no doubt in my mind whatsoever. They'll come here and deny it, and repeat the same "we haven't been called EA fanboys before!" crap that they've been spewing, but i can smell something going on here.

OS fell for the hype and reviewed MVP during that honeymoon period, and like all EASports fans, will be spending the next 3 months screwing with sliders that won't change the gameplay enough for it to truly live up to what they thought it was. That's precisely what's going on. You OS defenders may say "you have no proof!" but folks, i've been on this earth for quite awhile, and while i may not be the smartest guy in the world, i'm certainly not the dumbest. Experience with people who ar full of crap teaches you. The reason that this OS person stopped answering questions is obvious. Anyone with half a brain could hazard an educated guess.

Frankly, i'm no longer impressed with these people and, but for the fact that fans always relay the *real* information on the quality of games, i wouldn't even be here.
