No "Official" Response. but BAA-ing from the audience is overwhelming

The anger seems to be ebbing...
Are they right? Are you all just a bunch of sheep in wolves' clothing? Will you just lie back, wipe your Cheetos smeared fingers on your t-shirt and ask your mom for a new points card? If someone took money from you in person and you knew who it was, you would be at the police and pressing charges. Why not now?
Complain here: FTC
Keep this from happening again.

Stop insulting other gamers. You sound like a spoiled 10 year old. People enjoy the single-player modes for the time. A patch correcting the MP part is in the works. Obviously, it can't simply be pulled out of some *rse. After the patch being wrapped up by the developer it has to go through MS's certification which will take probably several weeks.

They're not going to fix the local multiplayer. That is the official word from Namco and MS. If you actually read the comment then you would realize that I am not insulting people, I'm insulting their lack of action. Read all the angry comments before and then see it now. These companies want us to act like the description above because we can get all huffy and puffy on the internet, but when it comes time to act? What do we do? What do we always do?
We whine and say "Oh Well" that is BS and the corps know that we will most likely not do a thing if we have to go out in the real world and do it.
We act like battered wives, always returning to the idiot that is beating us because he promised not to do it again.

I tired of the promises I want results and we can only get results together. If asking that they check something that they are marketing for another is too much, then they are in the wrong business. If you want to continue accepting their promises and going back, fine. I, for one, am tired of getting the black eyes and bruises.

You forget lothar that many of us filled out petitions and called the Attorney general's office as well as contacted MS already several times.  Many threads in this forum have been removed.  But there were several that were up to nearly 9 pages long full of people who complained and took action.

Also don't forget that people already jumped through all the previous hoops for crackdown which falsely advertised ( and still does ) that it contains offline multiplayer.  They also did it for lumines live.  Sadly nothing came from any of it the previous times. Nothing will come from it this time either.  MS and namco are huge companies and don't listen to the little guys. People complained and called MS.  They contacted namco.  There were several threads containing copies of email responses and quotes from phone calls.  Sadly MS moderators removed those threads.   But people did take action.  Yet again, nothing really came from it.

You can only beat a dead horse for so long......

Thats why you go to the FTC. They have the capability to fine them. If they get enough complaints. AGs can generally only work locally in the state. The FTC can work nationally and internationally. They are the only ones that can do anything.. Complain here: FTC They only take noice when they get at least 10,000 complaints for the same issue.
