meowsqueak said:All this moaning is just encouraging developers to abandon the PC as a significant games platform and move their development effort to consoles (which is several orders of magnitude easier to work with, since the goalposts are firmly rooted in one place).
I implore you all - if you do not want this to happen, then please, as a matter of principle, stop complaining (about this). Post-release patches are unfortunately an unavoidable part of modern PC games - live with it or stop buying them.
But by all means complain if the patch(es) are insufficient. Just don't moan about the fact patches exist and releases get rushed out for holiday periods.
It's interesting you should mention that. I bought my copy of Civ IV at EB and when I was talking to the guy he mentioned that relatively speaking, they sell very few PC games compared to consoles. With online capability and hardware advances, it's a little easier to go with consoles, except when there is a bug there is no quick and easy fix.
