So by your space-cadet thought, EA created a bugged game, so they could overload their call centers and reportedly take a 50% hit on profits, so they could create these LTP's and a patch that they recieve NO MORE MONEY for... strictly because they are a monopoly?
Like it says, it's millions of lines of source alone... bugs happen, as they say - WITH EVERY SOFTWARE PACKAGE MADE.
"My friends are game testers" <-- since when does this take programming knowledge??
