I'm probably going to like it, that's one fan...

Change that Charlie Manson avatar and I'll worry about your 1% view. 99% of us couldn't care less about it.

Lose the rotten attitude son.. and you cant speak for everyone else in here, for all you know your the 1% and we're the 99%

<hr /></blockquote>

Well, I challenge you to take a poll to see how many gamers give a rat's *** about FPM besides Charlie Manson and you. That took a bunch of development time away from more important things. Resources are limited, you have to priotritize.

Go ahead, setup a poll.

And I'm not giving attitude, I'm concerned bonehead management decisions like this will kill the series ala High Heat.

Just doing a quick catch-up before heading to Disneyland, didn't check the link. However, knowing that both you and Bill were steadfast in holding EA accountable for any glitch in MVP, I assumed that was the link you were pointing to.

I assumed wrong.

Who peed in your cereal fossen? I pointed out flaws in MVP that existed. Plain and simple. Why take offense to that? I was "steadfast" in holding EA accountable because there are "glitches" in that game that make it damn near unplayable. Thus far, I don't see anything near that level of screw up in ESPN. ESPN has its share of sloppyness, but I'll take some sloppyness over a damaged game any day.

The only things that I railed on MVP about were the poor roster management, the broken dynasty mode, the lack of steals, and the lack of walks. Those were my big issues. I never even got into the whole lefty bug thing. By that time I had moved on to other stuff while the modders scrambled to try and fix EA's game. That's somehow my fault?

If it turns out that ESPN has such serious issues that make the game a waste of time -- I'll say so. Until that happens, I'm going to play it and enjoy it.

Sorry to offend you that I'm not blasting ESPN yet. Enjoy Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Holey moley! I'll apologize again.

I assumed yet another "Mr. Abner's Wild Bug-Testing Ride", since your jihad against MVP has consumed many of your posts here and at the blog. I assumed wrong. My mistake. Sorry.

Glad to hear you're enjoying a baseball release.

Re: Two long time reviewers give their take on ESPN

hm. if you don't mind my asking: if you're sorry, why are you still behaving like such a horse's rear end toward the guy? Is there some history here no one knows about?

This is not to say that you guys haven't been sorta mildly flaming *each other*, but it seems like you started the pissing contest and you're just mad because his stream was longer. Just wondering.
