    I wouldn't say anxiously awaiting.

    More like waiting to see if they make any improvements without breaking anything else.

    I don't think so. Out of all the EA Sports games, NCAA is usually the best imo.

    You cant be serious. FIFA and NHL have by far the best franchises in EA. Both football series suck donkey nuts. Fifa and NHL are constantly improving the game without breaking another part of the game. Their online play is vastly superior.

    I'll give you Fifa, that game is pretty good. Me saying NCAA was best was probably my college football biasy kicking in, haha. Not a big fan of NHL, though.

  • It pisses me off how in NCAA football (I haven't gotten a new one since 08, so maybe they fixed it by now), when you're on offense and run a deep route and the computer puts his safety in a deep zone, that your WR will RUN RIGHT AT THE SAFETY indefinitely, and not come back to the sideline and wait for the wide open pass. You know, like what happens in real effing life.

  • Episode 2 in the Walking Dead is really good. This game just keeps getting better. I am now anxious for episode 3.

    It is only valid through this weekend.

  • EA says they're not far off from going 100% digital.

    I don't really mind downloading games per se, but it bothers me for two reasons:

    1. Effectively ends the used game business.

    2. ESIV: Oblivion came out in 2006. To download it on XBL still costs $20. In no way should a 5+ year old game cost $20. Hell, they shouldn't cost over $10 IMO.

    EA will be 100 percent digital, says exec - GameSpot.com

    [UPDATE] EA Games president says it's inevitable that company moves entirely to digital distribution, calls monthly NPD reports irrelevant; NPD Games president surprised by comments.

    I'm not wild about an all digital format but it makes sense. Much rather my money go straight to EA than a third party retailer.

  • Have any of you ever dealt with EA customer service? When my bf3 code didn't work, i had to... Worst 2 hours of my life

    If yer pos3 dies, all the titles you owned would go down with it...

    Have fun with that.

    And just by a guess, their server allocation is terrible... Imagine trying to download a new release... Add to that the overload on the pos network, and nobody would bee able to play a new game the first 2 weeks of release

  • Microsoft has the best customer service and I sure as hell do not want to go all digital because they will overprice older games. I just bought Starhawk and I am fixing to try it out. I now own 16 PS3 games and 44 Xbox 360 games. I have at least over 50 downloadable games some arcade some full retail games. I have traded in at least 20 games on PS3 and over 60 on 360. I have played a lot of games this gen and have an impressive collection.

  • Games are nearly 8GB, not counting DLC. Unless you have a huge HD, it will fill up fast.

    Also, high speed isn't available everywhere believe it or not. My parents only have access to low speed DSL.

    This is why I sold my first PS3 I had too many games and my hard drive was full. I hate the mandatory install many games have. I now have a 320gb PS3 and I play most games on my 360 anyways which also sucks because I do not like disc swapping on games that come with multiple disc.

  • If they want to make downloads mandatory they need to make consoles able to connect to external HDDs... All of them, not just overpriced ones sold by them.

    Never even thought about the multiple disc thing. Most games are one disc that's ~8GB. so what happens when it's a multidisc game? That's a ton of space and time just to download.
