Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
Meh, I expect to hear one or all of the following:
-"Its just $60"
-"Its just a game" (my personal favorite, as people who say this seem to forget they are on a VIDEO GAME SITE)
-"You expect too much"
-"Stop crying"
-"Be patient"
-"Your fault for buying the game" (This one is so fundamentally flawed that anyone who says it I ignore immediately)
Im sure im forgetting several other cliches on the matter, but Im sure you get where I am coming from.Comment

I guess it is a good thing that EA doesn't make cars then...

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
Right, because buying a video game that doesn't have a "completed" feature is really comparable to buying a car without brakes.
If you're going to complain, make valid comparisons that at least give you some amount of credibility.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
Maybe having no brakes on a car isn't a good analogy because the brakes are such an integral part. The brakes not working would be like if the game crashes every time you start it up.
But it'd be like if you went and bought a new car. It's supposed to come with the works, you think once you're off the lot and you've bought the car you're good to go.
Except you get in the car and the air conditioning doesn't work and the car dealership tells you to wait a month while they fix your air conditioning. Then your friend tells you the cup holders in the back aren't the right size and they don't hold any kind of normal sized cup.
It is ridiculous that we have to wait months after the game comes out before we can have the complete, fully functional game.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
Actually, I find it quite credible. Extreme example? Perhaps, to some. The underlying issue, consumer pays for something and something in said purchase doesnt function correctly, if at all.
A $60 game may or may not be comparable to a vehicle, depending on who you ask. But the fact remains, for many of us, if we pay $60 or $6000, we expect what we bought to work properly.Comment

I hope that anyone who mentions tires or brakes or any other vitally important aspect of a two ton piece of machinery in comparison to a video game is high school aged or younger. It's sad to think that an adult would use such a specious, harebrained analogy.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
ok would u like me to change it for u....$70 ralph lauren polo shirt...but its missing the buttons at the top. now u dont "need" them to wear the shirt, but will u buy that one off the shelf or will u keep moving the rack until u find one with the buttons?
is that fair enough for u since its same price range? i mean its the logic behind it, not necessarily the example. i dunno about u but im not in the habit of buying ANY flawed products with my money. i dont care if i was poor or rich, cheap or expensive item. doesnt matter to me. if that makes me an idiot or whatever you're trying to infer cuz i think that logic carries over...so be itLets Go:

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
I agree the analogy is crap but there needs to be a video game consumer advocacy group formed. THere is a growing trend among developers and publishers in the video game industry to release unfinished buggy content, and fix 'what they can' with patches. Consumers are constantly having to deal with this ****. It's not just EA either.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
It's a freaking analogy, please get a grip and shake yourself. Does a video game have anything to do with a car? NO, but treating customers with a little respect is the same in any industry.Originally posted by mva5580Was it sent out flawed? Yes. Absolutely. I never said that it wasn't, did I?
The POINT which I have made is that your analogy to a car without brakes is ridiculous. You're the one insanely exaggerating, not me.
If you find problems a with a $60 video game to be in line with an extremely vital function of a CAR to be worthy of comparison, then there's nothing else I can say. You chose to make inappropriate comparisons, not me.
But please go ahead, continue to insult me the way you have been. It continues to add to your already stellar credibility.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details
So you admit that my post was valid. Thank you, we can move on now.
And it doesn't even matter that it doesn't have anything to do with a car, show me a car ON EARTH that would be sold to a customer without brakes. It's just a stupid analogy. And you know it is.Comment
