I wrote a news story about the Tiger Woods content earlier. I thought EA was done with this nonsense, but I guess not.

OMG i swear i thought i was seeing things, actually PAYING to max your golfer, what is the world coming to , now dont get me wrong its not the fact its kind of cheating, and if your a saddo that has to do that then go for it. but you know what ...hows about the fact it should be bloody FREE, you know why...because we bought the bloody game and cant complete it because of the bug in tiger challenge, were i may add is were you get the majority of your lvling done. absolutely bloody appalling it really is, not only do EA release a such substandard broken release, it should be a crime, it really should, but they they turn round and kick you in the nuts why your down, by CHARGING for something that they should be giving us FREE, as they messed up big time. you know what, EA, i had my cash ready for nhl , but you can seriously go shove it, its appalling you make a balls up, but want us to pay for it...its a bloody joke. oh and this on top of all the servers never working, and gameface being a joke...the demo on xbl, is a better product than the full one, hows about unlocking the fact we can only play so many challeneges. hang your heads in shame...this for me has just taken the "worse xbl content award" from activision, then again your both as bad as each other...when is all that money going to be enough.

EA games are not even worth the 60 dollars to begin with.

Why pay 60+ tax for shovelware that will be replaced next year?

Go to hell EA. Your games are a waste of DVD discs.

Considering you can't even get online with Tiger Woods 2008 in the UK as the servers aren't even up yet, I find it insulting that they've managed to get their bullsh*t content up on marketplace in time for the release.

EA really love to sh*t on their customers!

Oh and I kinda like the dog and alpine themes :)

Max out tiger woods 200 Mps. Thats just shamefull. This sort of thing brings down the whole market place value to the consumer. It makes other content look bad. This sort of thing should be on a cheats website and nothing more.

There was none of this before the MP. There was a time devs but this in a game for people tio have fun with.

Now there just ripping people off. Taking advantage of gamers.

Its not on. I for one will not buy it, i encourage you all to do the same.

Here here to all the people taking the time out to complain about the crass EA paid download on the marketplace. Boo hiss to Microsoft and EA for just refusing to listen.

Hopefully Peter will get all this EA stuff sorted and look for giving real value to a game.

So, in most 360 games, codes can't be used to unlock achievements, but in a retarded EA golf game, you all allow those assclowns to charge for it? How friggin retarded.

wow...just wow. How in the world can you charge for that? Pay to cheat, cool. Why even bother letting you build stats? Thanks for ruining online already EA, and for charging your customers for something they could just play to unlock.

But you know what the real kicker is, I bet a lot of people buy that crap. I mean, if you like it why complain online, or even bother saying anything.

Crackdown wasn't the greatest game ever, and I know most people just bought it to play H3 beta (I got beta with Phase 1, so I borrowed crackdown off of someone who did get it just for H3) but the thing is, they did cheats right. -FREE- download for Keys to the City, which while fun, disables saving and achievements. Therefore, rather than decreasing the longevity of the game, it increased it, because when the normal play of the game got boring, I'd do some Keys to the City for a while, knowing my original file was unchanged. Also, that way, cheats ensure people actually work for the achievements. I'm really dislike companies making crap games, then putting easy achievements so people buy them. Even if a game isn't that great, learn from what it does well. If you want cheats in your game, follow crackdown's approach. It works well.
