In-game advertising? Shouldn't it be cheaper then?

Wow dude, looks like my comment upset you, even though it wasn't specifically aimed at anyone. You are plainly sad and my comment hit a nerve.

I'm free to look and comment on here as a 360 owner, i'm also entitled to voice my opinion as you have done so vigorously throughout this thread. Gaming is a part of my life, and has been for over 20 years, however I do live in the real world and like I said there are far more important things in life. When you grow up son, you'll find out. At least now it's fixed you can put your dummy back in.

The moment people start realizing that MajorNelson isn't their "champion" and that he's just serving in a marketing role, the sooner people will stop feeling "let down" by someone that never had their best interests at heart to begin with.

"I can't do with this stress about the launch of this game. Its Christmas and our lives are hellish enough as it is.

Please sort this out ASAP, this is causing unnecessary grief for many."

Yeah, because it's all about you. There's absolutely zero stress at MS right now. None at all.

*rolls eyes*

You people seriously need to get outside. If this is stressing you out too much, you really shouldn't play video games.

I know it's out of Major's hands. It was never in them. However he is the ONLY one keeping us in the loop so far. So am asking him for an update, we were told we would be given some information soon, and so far we have haq a bunch of updates that said "no news".

So far we have not been given any reason for the problems or an ETA. I highly doubt anyone would complain if we were told two weeks and it showed up in one.

We just want to know if we have to abandon hope of a pre-x-mass release or if there is still a chance.

No one is complaining so it gets done faster, we just want some information on what is going on, telling us people are working on it is a given!

And you are overestimating my frustration, I'm very calm and not at all worked up about this. I am however very sad and disappointed that the release of this game has been such a mess, starting with the original February release date to the failed launch.

Major, I purchased this before it was pulled, I wasnt too bothered about not being able to play on yet, But I phoned up M$ support to find out when the new one would be out, They told me to delete it and redownload it from my download history, So I did as I was told and deleted it only to find ITS NOT IN MY HISTORY, So I have PAID for it but dont have even the offline version, I have phoned up support many times only to be fobbed off, I know I can redownload it without paying again when its out but come on this is out of order dont you think, I was told to remove it, So you have my points and I have NOTHING !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, look at it like this Parabolee... FIrst, it's the holidays. From now till about the 2nd of January (at least) the offices are probably gutted of employees. This might be the worst time for something to go wrong, because manpower is limited. Second, if Major said "2 weeks", and it was fixed in a week, everyone would start either cutting a week off of estimates, or cuttingthem in half, and when the NEXT 2 week fix actually takes two weeks, everyone will go insane about how "Major lied, because last time he said two weeks, it was only a week, and wtf major what are you jerking us around?" And if he says a week, and it takes a week and a day, people will go insane right off the bat. "wtf major, M$ f'ing sucks, you're screwing us, you said it would take a week, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa". They are working on it. Complaining doesn't get it done faster. It's out of Major's hands (frankly, since he doesn't do the "grunt" work of coding and such I suspect it was never actually IN his hands). Calm. Down. Seriously Para, I'm starting to worry dude. You're getting so worked up over this, I'm a little afraid you'll burst a blood vessle. So everyone just relax. It will get fixed, and you will get your soccer game. It will be ok. Honest.
