goddam frikkin updates

Updates are a very good thing and sorry to tell you but they are not going anywhere. Most of the time they are very short downloads and don't take to much time. What are you going to do when everything switches to downloads. I really think that the way things are going within like 5 years or so we won't be buying games at stores just downloading them all.

why in the hell did they start updates for the ps3 and why does it connect to the net.

consoles where doing fine before updates and the net.

sega mastersystem , mega drive, dreamcast, saturn, ps1 ,ps2, nes, snes ,64, gamecube, no updates and not net required.

why the hell did they start all the ****????

Dude many of the things you see today were through updates. I laugh at people that complain when Sony is making the system better.

I can see a light downside from updates. I think some developers have released games with way to many bugs when they should have pushed back the launch. Like FableII, for example. Quality is something that should be tested before you ship out.

Me and my brother both lost our save games to completely unrelated glitches. Close to 50 hours of gameplay to.

Updated are necessary to fix those problems, but some standard or quality should still be demanded.

I don't mind updates I usually just text some friends and by the time i finish with my text the updates are done
but I don't have a ps3 so I wouldn't know but I do have a 360 and I do have a lot of updates

Don't you think this more has to do with the quality control of the company more so then the fact that they can update things? I am glad they are able to patch issues that come up but I hold the developer responsible for making sure they release games with as few of these issues as possible. I guess it sounds like to me your beef is more with developers then with the fact that games can be updated. Updates are not always bug fixes an example of this is there was an Uncharted 2 update that added clan tags to the multiplayer.
