*nods* EA has been slipping for a while now. Their quality control in terms of buggy and glitchy games is awful. EA's community support is shot too-they've made promises to support their games with patches but drop the games once their newest title is released.

Almost every Sims 2 expansion has required a patch, sometimes more than one. The real fun is contacting tech support. Everytime I've emailed them I've had to do it twice because the first reply they send is always "EA Games is not legally responsible..." blah, blah, blah. I don't care, I just need the registry codes, thank you. From what I've heard they've been far worse in the past months, including hanging up on callers, being rude, giving out false or misleading information, things like that. I'm done with them; if I need technical help I'll go to MATY.

And this is why I don't buy used games(assuming it was used). I almost always end up with a problem of some kind and they're usually not priced all that much cheaper.

I recently rediscovered a love of video games (of sorts) with Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town (on my GBA - I’ve yet to catch on with this whole DS revolution), a surprisingly addictive and involving game about managing your own farm and integrating yourself with the local community. Right now I have a distinctly Foster’s influenced barnyard - I call my chickens Coco, Goo, Berry and Eurotrish, my pony Kip, my sheep Frankie and my cow Duchess.


Notable events thus far:


1)I undertook a perilous mission for the Mineral Town Mayor in order to spare him the humiliation of losing a bet with the mayor in the neighbouring town (which as far as I can see doesn’t even exist). He rewarded me by giving me a shiny piece of golden lumber, the only practical use of which, I discovered the hard way, is to lure a mob of angry villagers to your farm every morning with little purpose but to insult you for your decadence. If you want to maintain good relationships with the rest of the populace, all you can do is shut that lumber away in your cupboard and forget that it even exists. I’m so mad at the mayor right now.

2) Elli, the girl I've been pursuing from the start (you play a young romantic male in the game, with a choice of five different objects of affection), seems to be dropping hints that I should finally propose to her, but I've found out that she won't accept my offer until I have another extension done on my house and buy a double bed.

3) Everyone in Mineral Town forgot my birthday. Even Elli.
