That’s £34.99 wasted. Still, I’ve got to say, I’ve never felt better…breaking the game that is not playing it.

This game, to say the least, is not ready and honestly not good enough for the amount you pay.

lol... don't know where to start...

1. No way did you snap your disc in half
2. If you DID, you're a moron
3. If you live in the uk, and paid £35, see point 2

Lol, I'm sure the Op will regret this by the time one week has passes since the official patch comes out, and he'll be scouring the net for a no-cd patch like crazy,lol.

some people actually have a job and can afford to pay full price. no need to scrounge around and buy games from dodgy.com.

anyway, who gives a crap if he broke the disc or not. he has a point, off side in fm o8 and 07 is a joke.

Offsides from a corner is really really annoying but I only saw it in the unpatched 8.0.0 version, very often.

There is no need to snatch your CD, and why did you pay £35 for a game that is sold £25 in Tesco?

garrot · 11-19-2007, 12:44 PM

sold for 19 quid on amazon..

So he decided to junk his cd, big deal. He's done you no wrong, it's not your cd that he broke.

i can COMFORTABLY afford to pay full price thanks - partly cos i don't believe in throwing money away - which is a pretty good reason NOT to pay that full price.
and yeah... play.com .... ooooh so dodgy

OBVIOUSLY he didn't do ME any wrong... that doesn't preclude him from either a) not telling the truth, or b) being a fool.

I brought the game from Virgin for £25... it was in Game for the same price too, so not really Dodgy.com is it??? Whether you have a job or not paying £34.99 for a game that's in the shops for £10 cheaper is stupid.

I've never seen offside from a corner but as has been said the beta patch did fix this.
