The german version of Space Wolves 2 for instance is seriously bugged. You can play the entire game but you'll never recieve any money for any story quests done and that is quite a lot so it affects gameplay by making it frustrating. Also saving the game breaks any quests which are in progress, wether it's a story or random quest and that's annoying as fuck. Developed by russians by the way. :P

There are tons of games which feel like public betas... you probably aren't playing the right games, not that it's any bad.

You said never, not even once.
I said "I've never seen". A statement that's still true, I didn't play Sin when it was initially released and I've kept far away from both Battlecruiser 3000 AD and Battlefield 2.
Not really a problem?! I refuse to buy any EA games because of Battlefield 2's bugs! That and EA are a bunch of cock suckers.
That you hate EA isn't really a problem for gaming generally.

I think you meant that I'm playing the right games, and you're not :wink:

EA itself is a problem for gaming generally, though.

Indeed, Electronic Arts is a place so vile, I would need to punish myself if I worked there. That said, somebody has to make the crap sports titles that make up apparently 52% of the American game market.

No you wouldn't, they'd do that for you.

Actually, they pay you an awful lot, it just feels like the inside of a borg cube...

Directly quoting a former employee of theirs, there.
