Basically anything pre 1999 when companies finally realized that most gamers are pawns and will shell out the $$$ for any half baked beta as long as you advertise.

And yes, me personally, i expect that I am buying a finished product. Has it become wrong to walk into a store and expect to have pickles in my jar when i buy it? Rather than a note saying that eventually the store will put pickles in my jar?

Not necessarily 100% because i know **** happens, but definitely over 90%. Hell, in my industry anything over 10% below spec is legally criminal.

Speaking of $$$ how has $60 become a reasonable price for a videogame? I mean really?

My god this post makes me sound ancient. Oh well.

the secret of monkey island had a game breaking bug where you couldnt get off the pirate ship cause there was an item missing or something. I was never able to beat it until recently because of it. the point is games have always had bugs freezing and crashing problems. the difference is in 1999 when you bought a game you were probably **** out of luck in terms of hoping for any patches and were just stuck with a broken game. now we have the luxery of games that update themselves. believe me we are far better off than we were in 1999.

How much money did tripwire have ? and how many employees? They still did a better job with the game mechanics.
1)Very little comparitively, plus they couldn't go to EA and say "We need more money"
2)About 30-50 I think.
see, everything you have posted is with the stipulation "once or twice" or with the stipulation "well placed" while it's great that it is actually possible, it seems that the panzer 4 can hit general areas and kill many things, where as the T-34 has to be a crack shot to destroy systems or crew members.
I'll clarify, the reason I put it that way is because I rarely play in the tanks, but I've certainly seen it happen when I have. Rifleman FTW

RO2's positional sound is horrible on my x-fi xtremegamer card (doesn't even seem to be utilizing it) and 3 other computers I've watched people play it on. It's not my hardware.

Also, I have a habit of hitting reload the moment my clip or magazine is emptied which triggers the no reload animation bug. It's not something I can adjust for, but instinct.

Don't get me started on hit detection of moving targets.

Between those 3 bugs/flaws I can't play the game and enjoy myself so I play bf3. I haven't witnessed a single game-breaking bug yet. I have had 1 CTD in 20 hours of playing. To me, the greatest bug in BF3 is its player-base. ICK! As for all the other complaints about bf3, they can usually be attributed to the typical game style of bf3. At least they stuck to the original bf1942 design, aside from going downhill in the vehicle and weapon skill requirements.
