Seems like you, me and lots of other gamers here have similar gripes with the way development companies force their crud down our throats. I recently write an article outlining some of the things you have mentioned here in your article as well.

I have stated that a large portion of the blame falls on some of us gamers who continue to buy these "games" that are being produced. we allow them to stay in business and do this to us. If we don't buy what they produce then they would have to change, but i dont see that happening anytime soon. its a sad state of affairs to say the least. Well lets hope if we continue to write these kinds of articles that someone will listen and changes can happen.
Upvoted and Reteemed, power to the people
