NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 - Waiting on Approval From Microsoft and Sony

So EA gets your money and...well thats all they care about. Anyway, EA got $59.95 off ya and Game$top(or whoever) "gave" you $24 of that back so you could give another $25-$30 on another game(Madden and EA?) and then they will resell your NCAA for $39.95...Yup, seems like everyone made out like a bandit on that deal!

Well, I called EA support, they told me to send in the game with the receipt, they then sent me an unopened copy in return which I turned around and returned to the retailer for the full purchase price.

As much as I am frustrated with EA lately, they really had no problem working with me to get out of my NCAA 12 investment. They fully recognized the issues the game had and the fact that they had no date for the patch release made the whole process pretty painless.

Not doubting ya at all, there have been weird things happening all over this year but I will say, I have NEVER heard anything like that! Even Sierra's Front Page Football '99 couldn't be returned like that(and yeah, I still have my copy on my shelf waiting for it to be 'fixed', the bastards).

Anyway, good for ya...I hope enough do the same that it could catch the "suit's" attention.

People complain about the complainers because it is literally clogging up the forums as if it's going to make a huge difference. There's a bug list, EA has customer service and several ways to contact them but you opt to go through a third party in hopes of fixing something? If your meal was undercooked would you goto the friend of a friend or would you go straight to an employee to have it completed properly?

We know theres issues, but rehashing the same issues to people with no connection to EA is getting really old, especially when it's the same thing over and over. If your product isn't to your satisfaction there are three options 1) Complain here, 2) Complain to the source (EA) or 3) Sell it. Sadly too many people opt for 1 and 3. Yes EA dev's do come here every once and a while, but not enough that clogging every thread with the same complaints repeatedly is going to make a difference. If your going to complain goto the source.

So by that logic, no one should be allowed to praise the game either, right? That doesn't serve the purpose of "making a difference either", right? What a great opinion-less forum this would be then.

Funny I was on the 'beta' test list for FPS Football '99 and I still have it in a box somewhere. That 'beta' was pre-alpha at best. I remember how shocked I was with the way it was cobbled together - a few of the pieces worked but most did not.

Ncaa12 is a masterpiece compared to that title. I can remember impatiently waiting for a patch to the original FPS Football in '92 and hoping I wouldn't have to restart my league. One nice feature Sierra/Dynamix always included was a utility to convert a league from the previous year's title so you could keep the same one going indefinitely.

FPS Football was RECALLED that year, and they NEVER patched it into working and NEVER made another football title.

Yeah it was recalled but you had to ship it to Norwood CA or sumsuch place at your expense and what did you get back? Sierra credit for other games...no thanks! Never bought another Sierra product.

And the Electronics Boutique(if anyone remembers them, thanks Game$top) wouldn't refund my money cause it was opened

The patch/fix I was referring to was the hope beyond hope that they would open the code for a group from the community so they could step in and fix what the company couldn't/wouldn't.

After watching this Baylor TCU game, I am starting to wonder if they should patch the deep ball

This TCU & Baylor game is nuts. Baylor has the deep ball down pat. I CANNOT believe TCU has come back.

College Football, I missed you so much.
