If I had the "perfect" college football game, I wouldn't mind paying $200+ for it if it gave me hundreds of hours of enertainment over the course of the year. But back to the principal....Why should anyone have to pay to be a frustrated beta tester. At the very least, EA should make sure that hi-lighted features work as advertised. Its pretty amazing to me that EA sports doesn't tap this sites resources for beta testers and find these errors before the game is released.

$60 bucks for a few drinks and a steak dinner? Wow, sign me up for that!!!!

I totally hear what you're saying and I agree. Generally speaking, the hours of entertainment for the cost in most instances is worth it in my opinion. Heck, games have probably saved me a nice chunk of change that I otherwise would have spent on bar tabs or something, lol.

However, faith that this company can deliver a product without terrible bugs and issues has dwindled to such a low that it has become harder and harder to justify these purchases. And the lack of communication to the loyal customer base is appalling. It's getting old and I'm getting sick of it.

I know it's ridiculous but, EA has me despising a guy I don't even know. I have to chuckle to myself but, every time I see Ben Haumiller he just seems greasier and greasier. Like a used car salesman, haha.
