I look at it as the "Farmville effect"

I honestly don't care if a game takes 10 mins, 20, or 2 hours....as long as each game I play gets around 120 plays between both teams and realistic stats then I am happy.

I will say they look better, but that ain't really saying much. Like you said they still are not running. It still looks like they're jogging just a tad bit faster. I guess we will have to wait till 2013 to finally see fluid running, or fluid animations period.

Yeah, its mind-boggling that they still cannot get this right.

You watch the video on page one, and then compare the running animations to this. Go to the 20 sec mark, and look how fast his legs churn. How fast he actually moves...

I've never really heard anyone complain about how long it takes to play a game. I mean, sure, sometimes I start playing and something comes up and I have to quit. That's not because the games are too long, just bad timing. Most of the people that have problems with finishing games have only asked for one (old) feature...

IN FREAKING GAME SAVES WTF WHY THE HELL I DON'T EVEN.

Exactly. I have never hear anybody complain that it takes to long to complete a game.

So what does EA do? Work on that, and ignore the more important stuff. Hilarious.
