Updates? Are you not talking about fixes? If you can show me a game that has patched itself, and has NOT fixed something (PC games that is, that connect to the internet). Codo's to j00. But in my experience with game's in all genre's, every game has fixed something. I would bet that every single EA game has problems. I thought I'd try out 2142 since its been a couple years since it has come out.....well, I found bugs the first fucking time playing.

The only game that I've played where the owners/programmers/whoever cared to listen to your bug reports and fixed them ASAP, was Vendetta Online (although maybe only 50 people world wide played it) it was a joyous occasion when it only took them an hour to fix every problem.

Patches like you said are needed, but for the wrong reason in 99.9% of the cases.
