Um.. No. The fact that a comment generates a response does not mean that the comment was relevent to the original topic. Hating FIFA has nothign to do with holding games to GAF standards.
Maybe if he'd brought up "bad art" or something.

That, or play games. Good ones, while you're at it.
AdmiralViscen said:
Um.. Yes. Did you actually READ the followup? The question I posed in the followup has to do with positive/negative preconceived notions, and how said opinions can (if you let them) color your own opinions of a title.

You bought a next gen EA sports game. You should have known better!
Seriously, get the competitors soccer product and don't look back.
Well that's the thing Konami's Winning Eleven is also stripped of features and what not read my post earlier I described what was taken out.Dr. Kitty Muffins said:
But yeah you guys are right it's my fault.. I bought two Ea sports games for a new system. I could have bought the ps2 versions or even xbox but I wanted to play soccer on my 360 in HD with all the bells and whisles of next gen.
I played the demo and it wasn't bad I felt it was something I could live with but in all seriousness the demo wasn't glitchy and I felt that maybe they would tighten up the gameplay a bit... and It was a compulsive purchase ( I work next door to a gamestop) Ultimately it's my fault I am aware of that. Is it really wrong to expect the contrary...

It isn't really your fault. You got raped, thats all.
I wouldn't buy any sports games for awhile. Just buy whatever else you like to play and wait for 2007 or 2008. That is the sad reality that some sports gamers face.
EA games arent all bad...
Anyways, the best way to get out of your rut is to start playing games with other people (i.e multiplayer). It is way more satisfying knowing you have beaten a human oponent opposed to a computer controlled one. Get into online gaming (but stay the hell away from MMORPGs, theyll consume your life).

You really should try taking a break from GAF for a while. I've done it a time or two, and I can almost guarantee it'll help you.
Also, on game purchases, try to limit yourself to games you're pretty sure you'd like. That may sound like common sense, but if you go by other people's tastes and just experiment with too many different titles, you end up spreading your game time (don't know about you, but mine's rather limited these days) too thin over a bunch of mediocre titles, when you could spend less money on fewer games you're more likely to enjoy, and even replay those titles to get your money's worth.
You should also buy Zelda: Twilight Princess. The game will rock.

What I do when gaming starts to suck is stop gaming for a bit. And then when something comes out I really want I start again, and then I burn through all the games I kind of wanted to play but didn't feel like playing. I usually find some gem through this process. Also play some more arcadey type games (shmups, brawlers etc.) instead of console style games if you don't already, You'll be surprised at how different the experience is.
I will dust off the cube for some Zelda goodness for sure.Ancestor said:
Also to all the people saying take a break from Gaf I am an Office manager so I sit in front of a computer 8-9 hours a day so sometimes this place gets me through the day. Im about to be promoted to a manager of multiple offices and once that happens I'll be out on the road most of the day. Only then will I get the break from gaf that I so deperately need.
