Thank you for proving my point. EA released the AFL pack, along with an unfinished patch (messed up uni's and overlay banners, easy kick returns)
Now were into week 10 of the season, and still waiting for fixes for faults that wouldnt be in the game if it had been thoroughly tested before release.
Perhaps if the patch had been prioritised, and the faults fixed, and then released the AFL pack, we might be in a better place at the minute. But I suppose delaying the AFL pack would have meant less of them sold, and a smaller dividend for the EA shareholder.
Don't get me wrong, I think Ian and his team have done a good job this year, and I really think Madden 10 could be a great game, and no game is perfect, but we shouldn't still be waiting 3 months after the game was released.
