    It is only funny because it is true, it is exactly what a majority of EA consumers do. Bitch , Moan, Complain, and still buy the wares anyways.
    No Wonder EA thinks they can walk all over players, we as a masses are doormats when it is something we’ve wanted.

    Not this gamer though. I’ve said it before: I don’t buy their games anymore and I haven’t done so for over a year now. The same goes for Ubisoft and Activision.
    Sadly, there are too many sheep out there lured by the shinies who simply refuse to grow a backbone. Once a half-baked Seasons EP comes out for TS3, the sheep will be out in force again.
    As for me, I’ll be too busy playing quality titles from indie developers, CD Projekt RED and ArenaNet.

    After a year of not buying/playing for what ever reason that you believe is valid, you come to a public forum and call people sheep (and imply stupidity) for buying and playing a game that I (we) enjoy? Rather trollish behavior, don’t you think?

    UK Northerner is always on here for someone who doesn’t play EA games. It is odd really. Maybe s/he’s a closet player?
    I admit I’m drinking the cool-aid EA serves up, I can’t wait for Supernatural, and hope it half-assedly lives up to my expectations. TO be fair, I did go back and replay older sims titles, and you know what I found?
    They’re just as glitchy and buggy as Sims 3, There’s a metric f*&k-ton of them in both Sims 1 and 2, and people still played them, S3 is a more complex game with more complex issues due to the ramped up graphics, so actually we’ve been playing the same game all along, with better looks.
    So yeah, I’m done bitching about it. It is the same game, similar glitches, just more annoying because they are harder to fix since Sims is not sprite based anymore.

    Yes, how odd that someone who’s been playing the Sims games right from the beginning in 2000 and who has probably invested thousands of pounds over the years in EPs and sequels is posting on a Sims site! Who would’ve thought it?
    I thought about offering up a reasoned response on here but then I realised I was wasting my time, so I won’t bother.
    This site’s gone downhill since Jud stood down and the people who actually cared about this franchise have long since jumped ship. It’s about time I joined them.
