NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 - Waiting on Approval From Microsoft and Sony

[jasonw2]

But this is how we're screwed. If we don't buy this game anymore, they might feel college football isn't worth it anymore, and stop making a game. We went from 2 pretty good college hoops game, down to nothing.

exactly. If the game doesn't sell why would EA feel the need to continue making the game. Double edged sword. Everyone swears that if we all banded together and not buy the game that it would force EA to change the game. That may not be the case, especially when other titles bring in so much money for EA. They could just simply say, "well, they're not buying it. Lets cancel the title and move them to something that will sell"

Since EA has a contract to be the sole provider of NCAA football video games, I think it would be in their best interest to... you know... actually make the game. People not rushing out and buying it would send the message that we are tired of the crap and to get it right.

So be it. It's not like this game is head and shoulders better than the PS2, XBOX days. You can argue that game had more features, less bugs and more fun.

Ummmm... COMPLETELY different situation.

I don't care if the patch drops today, tomorrow, or doesn't drop at all; I plan on buying NCAA 13 regardless.

Does that make me some EA homer? No, I don't have any allegiance to them at all. The only two sports games I buy on a yearly basis are NCAA and The Show. And why? Because I happen to thoroughly enjoy each game every year.

I'm not trying to disregard the complaints of anyone who is dissatisfied with the game in any way, but the way I spend the money I make is by spending it on things that I personally enjoy. If you're unhappy with NCAA 12, then don't buy NCAA 13. Or do. Whatever. I'm happy with the game, so I'm gonna continue to spend money on the series until I'm personally unhappy with the money I've spent.

Honestly, I don't care if that somehow makes me a jaded consumer or not. Because, like I said, I spent my own money on the game. I have a right to spend it however I see fit. And each poster here, and each person who is in the market for a college football game, is free to do the same. If you've been routinely disappointed by EA products, chances are you need to start limiting the amount of goods you consume from them. But, if you don't, that's your prerogative. Spend your money however you see fit. If you think it will send a message to EA by not buying their product for a year, go for it. But I can almost promise you it will make no difference because for every person who decides to not buy NCAA 13 because of NCAA 12, there will be someone else out there who will buy into the 13 hype and it will all balance itself out. And for every ten posters here who say they aren't buying the game next year, there are probably fifty in the real world who have no idea about the bugs and glitches. Hell, of those ten posters who say they aren't gonna buy next year, probably half of those at the very least are just marching to the beat of the collective drum here and just whining to fit in and will end up buying on release day anyways...

you guys cracks me up thinking that if the 30 people in here that claim are not buying the game next year will put a dent in what EA does with the game going forward, i lolz at you hard.

this year was a record sale for them, and with all the social media, and different ways they can find to get the game to a larger audience, sales are going to increase each year here on out.
