I will say this as well... If you can't program software that isn't bug free, then you shouldn't be selling it. Sorry, but that is the way I feel.
your console must be lonely having no games to play. I've yet to play a game that was bug free and I've been playing games for probably 20 years. well maybe Pong.

if thats the case then there shouldn't be one single video game developer selling a video game.

ALL video games have bugs/glitches. Its the nature of the beast.

But many don't effect the gameplay the way NCAA does.

To clarify, in that world there is no software. There are no PCs because there are no operating systems to run them. There are no consoles because the OS in the console can not be released. And even if there were there are no games to play on them. Computers of any kind no longer exist.

So you only buy the games in which the bugs/glitches don't affect gameplay? Or the games in which the bugs/glitches are hidden?

Please explain what a "hidden" bug/glitch is?

And please tell me a game that had bugs/glitches that were hidden(didn't effect gameplay) that you purchased.

Is there a social disorder that has something to do with weird analogies spiraling out of control?

No, I do research projects and manage data systems for our Government....No Video Game studies.....I wish...

I completely disagree with you. If everything was up to par upon release then we dont care. But once again as a consumer. If your offering me a product that is broken in the same exact area as last year "Lucy you got some explaining to do"!

But this is the first time you've clarified that the impact of the bugs make a difference. Previously you've held to your line that 1 bug of any kind and in your world the software can't be sold.

Once you open it up to how much that bug affects the game/software/etc, now we are back in subjective land. Your opinion of how badly it affects gameplay will be different from someone elses, that is why it is an opinion. And once again we are straying back into the discussion of what is a bug and what is not. Now we are back talking about features that aren't done the way YOU would want them done. That is not a bug. A bug is the sliders not affecting gameplay at all when they should. If you hiked the ball and the OL and DL stopped moving, THAT is a bug. There is a pass rush, it is not as effective as many of us would like it to be. That is not a bug.

I would love for NCAA to be 100% photo-realistic. It is not. That does not mean the graphics are full of bugs.

To be slightly annoying, there could be a bug that is causing the pass rush to not be as effective as the developers wanted

But honestly, you explained it perfectly.
