I think this game may be THE ONE to shoot EA in the foot

Re: I think this game may be THE ONE to shoot EA in the foot

I have to admit my love for boxing clouded my judgement. The reviewers also raved about the game.

I read some of the negative comments but I thought, it can't be that bad. I'll find a work around. It clear that the community day guys were given the bait and switch so they would come back to the websites and hype the game and give EA good free press. That alone should force a boycott.

The Champion mode is nothing but a fancy story wrapped around a meddiocre tutorial that most likely cost alot of time and resources.

The rest of the game is barely playable based on the fact that stamina is broken and the sliders don't work.

You may be able to edit the tendencies of all the licensed boxers and get some decent play now fights, but stamina may be an issue still. I haven't taken the time to do that as it may just be a waste of time.

So basically, yes. EA has lost me as a customer for full price purchases. I may still buy Madden or NCAA football 5 months after the fact after all the patches are out and I have done my due diligence and talked to people I trust. I will never buy a title at launch again. I'm older though, so this may be my last hoorah for video games on the console. I am most likely going to exclusively play strategy games on the PC.

AMEN BROTHER! I'm older also and the more this crap happens , the more i turn to my solid pc gaming rig..
