Am I a guinea pig? Again?

For the second time, I feel like I am part of a company's beta testing group!

Fallout New Vegas is not finished. It is a piece of software that is flawed, in many ways.

Call of Duty Black Ops is also a piece of unfinished software, which I also feel I am beta testing.


I am addressing this to the developers of Fallout New Vegas - I will be returning your product to the store I purchased it in. As I live in the UK (with very good consumer law), I know I will be given a full refund.
I will only ever be buying your products again after a decent amount of time (and for the record, I will be buying upcoming Fallout games again as I love the gaming experience they offer. I just wish they worked). Because I will only be buying your future products after all the bugs have been fixed, this effectively means I will be purchasing them from the bargain basemant bin(probably a year after release), resulting in you not making any money from my purchase.

I hope two things happen-
Firstly, that other people follow suit and dont purchase your products during the beta testing period (first year of release).
Secondly, that you notice not as many people queuing to purchase your products on release. Only then will you realise that people do not want an unfinished product, early.

if we're all beta-testers then where's the finished product? we're still waiting for F3 to be completed if that's the case...
