Why is EA doing this to me?

Post by Jackhammer »

Somebody tell me Why is EA doing this to me?
I can't stand them anymore!!!
here's my story:
I got a brand new geforce 2 mx 64mb GFX many years ago.that was brilliant.
nfsu released...a different game....nfsu2 announced...I cheered.
nfsu2 released I cried!the exact same game as nfsu with the same graphics but so much slower on my pc.i wasted my money and really cried when i got a geforce 5500 fx for it and saw the disgusting graphics!
nfsmw announced I became happy again...nfsmw released I became happier!
a brand new game with so many exotic cars and brilliant graphics.worked excellent on my 5500.
nfsc announced...the screens and videos didn't attract me...it released i really cried again....the same game again as nfsu2...a disaster...worse graphics than any other game and worked so bad on my pc.even on a 6600(my friends gfx)it was a disaster.
I wasted my money again when i bought nfsc!
and now nfsps!!
I'm not going to waste my money again and buy a new gfx for it.

What do you think??Do these games worth the money we pay for them??same old games??I'm even thinking of not buying the game!

Graphics upgrading problem: Buy a console.

To buy the game or not: Read some reviews before buying the game.

Thats all i can say to you.

Jackjammer, EA is not the only game company doing this to you. It's just how it is with computer games, newer games will require a newer graphics card, you can't use the same one forever. And darknight is right, you were buying cards that barely got you by.

haha, my mom tried to get me a 5500FX, luckly, I had upgraded to PCI-E so I had an exscuse to take it back, I even saved her money on my new one. One word... UPGRADE! Get a nice 7600GT is you're semi-broke and just want some really nice graphics without all that extra crap that wastes your money. Ya I have an old card, but why don't I upgrade? Because I don't need any more power... that's why! :wink:

Try a site called newegg.com, they are really cheap.

not every company doing this to me!!!
others make their games better and more exciting but EA is going backwards!!
for example Call of duty from activision.when they produced the second one for pc it was so much more exciting than the first one
but nfs....after nfsmw ea is going backwards.nfsc the same game but in night and not so exciting...and now ps!!this game will just be like NFSPU!I bet on this.
so many energy and time and money in these years and after NFSC ea makes NFSPU2???????
I'm not buying this game or a console.
I'd like to play the best game in nfs series...most wanted.

you just said that!!!you said u1 is exception!then how you said the rest of your sentence?and one other thing...most wanted was something really special it was so different and better than hp2...but somehow yeah....hp2 was really nice and I mean really nice...with those supercars...damn!!

and to our friend...I said that ea screwed me on grapics and gameplay!read my first post again!

there are no such companies that produce such intresting games as most wanted...most wanted is enough for me!

and I said that I will not buy any other games in NFS series or any consoles

Why do most of you guys suffer graphic problems, as Skyline_Man said, try not to bother buying a consle if you think upgrading graphics card is a waste of money. :!:

I don't think I will ever understand why anyone would want to play this kind of game on a PC, unless their TV is a POS. That being said, you'd have to have a pretty pathetic television to not be better for gaming than a little computer monitor.

Your contradicting yourself mate, because if this (MW) is special for you doesn't mean that MW is or was the best nfs game. There's NO best nfs game...you know why? Because it's personal...personal taste. If you like it....it's ur choice and NOT everyone's choice. MW was just a "remix" of Hot Pursuit series with new GFX and elements coming from Underground series.

....I can't buy a console...I'm in Iran and here consoles are very very expensive esp PS3! and if I want to change my gfx I have to buy a new MB to support PCI E ...
I'm not going to buy a gfx or MB...but I found a reason to buy the game....BMW M3 2008!!!
and as there is not any fast internet service to play online and copyright and no EA Sellers and no famous credit cards like visa or mastercard in Iran I'll buy the game for 3 to 4 dollars(i told you..everything is illegal here) and share it with my friends to save 3-3.50 dollars!!!!

I said I'm persian...please don't consider me as a terrorist or an as****e!I'm just a normal guy living my life.
so I cannot buy console because of their expense and for one more reason...I live with my family(3 Family members+ I) and I can't use the TV for playing.
But the new nfs carlist is just amazing...I'm thinking of buying the game! but not a new GFX!!!!
