HL7 is infamous around these parts
Default Unresponsive controls and poor loading times.

First off, i'll start with a positive, the game is great, very addictive and fun, but two things kill the immersion factor for me.

Firstly, the controls can be very unresponsive some of the time. For example, I sometimes have to press a button 6 or 7 times before the game acknowledges that there is user input. At first I thought this may be controller related, but my battery is fully charged and it also happens on my brother machine.

Secondly, loading times become abysmal after 18 months in-game. It can take upwards of 10 minutes to do end of season processing, and the opening of the January transfer window.

These, for me are two major problems that really do spoil what is otherwise, a very good port of the PC game (which could also be unresponsive at times too ).

So, now that I have that off my chest I have a couple of questions. Do Microsoft allow you to patch games through Xbox Live?

And if so, would you consider patching the game? (unless its just me with these problems of course ).

Unresponsive controller buttons can be fixed by going to the preferences, I think there is a sensitivity option in there. As for processing, this was always the way with the PC version, but with the PC version it was possible to remove some temp files (ie all the match data from previous seasons). On Xbox this doesnt look an option and could cause problems.

I'll try your suggestions for the sensitivity options because that is my main gripe.

Cheers muchly.

Im sure someone mentioned this before, but keeping the A button pressed while loading the game should clear the 360's cache.
This should help a little with loading times.
