pretty much. You are the only one to blame for buying a sports video game on release day and then crying when it doesn't work right. Name one sports video game that hasn't had bugs or glitches. I dare you...

that is about the worst post i have ever seen here....companies must love you as a customer.....lol

so what we should all do next year is wait until you buy the game and let us know if is safe to buy.....cool..thanx for the advice...i will follow your posts on future games and find out what u think before i decide....thanx

I have been playing video games for 30 years now. I have learned my lesson in regards to them. You better do your research because you will get burned. I waited for a good 2 to 3 weeks and the majority of the glitches were found before I made that decision. For all of you people that love the car analogies, do you not read up about the car and find out what others have to say about it first? If you don't, then you have only you to blame.

Not at all. But obviously you are very rigid in your demands for a video game. So based on that, you should probably wait to buy it so that you do not waste your money.

And it has nothing to do with whether companies like me or not. I am the consumer. I make sure I make good buying decision. Companies love you, because you are an impulse buyer.

so now you are going to call me a bad poster based on what. have i insulted you or made you feel that am not worthy of an opinion. yea there are complaints and people come out and get called out for complaining being told to relax and is just a video game and that we are childish.

youi stated that we should not want to have scea add new things and let them get the current things right...how does that make sense. i know u got a good relationship with scea and i never trreated them wrong because i dont agree with that method but we have a right to be upset if something or things are broken in the game when they were advertised.

The car to software analogies always crack me up.

Quoting myself just for context:

Following those 2 games, I simmed 4 (because I don't play every game of every series) then I played my 3rd game since the patch.

I'm now getting the 'replay glitch'. The game went 11 innings and then showed no replays afterward. It did the "MLB '09" screen swipe, then went straight to the summary screen. When I tried to go back to the vault, I had no replays beyond the 7th inning and even when I did go in and look at them, there were no players on the field...the bat and ball were there though

I also suffered another major injury that has forced me to put my 5th guy on the 60 day DL...
