Ya know... It really sucks that everytime you by a game... you end up
logging into the web to download a patch for your $40-50 piece of
software. These boneheads producing the games can create them, but
they can never figure out that it isn't quite finished before they put
in on the market. Duh! I read all the reviews on this one... I was
leary about buying it... Now that I know it needs a patch you can bet
I won't! Just think of all the people who are not on the web who buy
this ***and are not even aware that thier software is unfinished
garbage and it needs a patch. What a ripoff!

It could also be that EA simply said: "You've wasted enough money, now
publish it or s***it." If the game really was as buggy and
unplayable I doubt any dev team would voluntarily have it shipped.
I remember Quake2 being rushed out the door with broken multiplayer for
Christmas by Activision, so scratch iD of that list....
