I so tired hearing saying "who give a damn about ratings". Well, obviously alot of people care, if you keep having to ask about it. I realize that it probably will get very tedious if you started to type off every little rating of a player because he is your best friend's cousin. But one of the things that caught my eye about this site was that Steve (i think) posted screen shots of ratings. I think it was NCAA 2002, he would show screen shots of the depth chart. That was sweet to me because that it was something that stuck out to me. That is something that I could see and no one could lie about of have a different opinion on. Every year, you hear the same thing by the people who preview the game, no matter what site.
"the pass defense is better"
"the computer actually runs the ball"
"the recruiting is better"
"the offense line is better"
"this is the best one yet"
But every year we are asking these same questions every year, because we find out that they haven't changed. If you can show me one preview post on 2005 that said that the game was garbage (which it was), then I'll eat some humble pie. I don't know, do people think that if they give HONEST feedback on the preview, that EA might not give then one for next year? Or maybe it is just that they are so pumped to play the game that their perception of the game is blurred. There was one website last year (the one with poo diddy) that had a preview copy. They said the same typical preview stuff like every one else did. But he also took out some time to spit off the ratings of some teams by request . Not every attribute, but the player jersey number, and their overall rating. He did them by team. Not one player, but the whole team. Every one was praising him for taking the time to answer the questions that people who couldn't play wanted to hear.
I know that the previewers want to play the game and not take the time to just spit off ratings to people. But there are ways of compromising. But don't keep saying that no one wants to hear ratings, because that is just not true. I don't think that isnt is not too much to ask to ask to dedicate an hour or two a day to post some ratings for people who don't have the ability to play the game a couiple of weeks early. But to say that on one wants to hear ratings, is like saying "I don't feel like talking about something that I don't care about." and not what everybody thinks.
This is not a shot to just this site, because I think that this is true to almost every site. And I expect to hear alot of rebuttals in honest self defense. And by some people who wants to suck up to the powers that be. But I feel that this a site based on opinions, and on one should be shut up (or banned) on their opinions if it dosen't agree on the majority. I do believe that gameplay is the most important part,and the main point of the previews. Just don't say that "No one wants to hear about ratings." because I don't think that is true
