Yet another man who can't get the game working; as stated in the title

Last night I installed the NHL 2004 game to my computer. The process in and of itself was a bit of a headache to say the least. Eventually I did manage to get the game working decently on my computer after everything was installed, however it was playing the classic game with the rosters which were authentic to 2004. I played a single game in quick play and then decided to create a player, and tried to follow the instructions given to me. After downloading the NHL viewer program and following these directions, I am extremely upset and pissed off to find that the game will no longer load whatsoever. After multiple attempts to un-install and re-install the game in 3 different new folders in my computer I have basically given up on the prospect of enjoying this game because I've already wasted too much time as it is trying to simply get it to work normally.

So basically, the developers of this project are so incompetent that they suggested that a feature in the game is possible when in fact it is not. The reality of the situation, is that it just fucked up the whole program and now all the hours I've spent navigating the confusing ass instructions to install the game are now down the drain, total waste of time, total shitty experience. I understand that I have not paid a dime to download any of it, and bitching about it makes me look like the asshole; but I must say that if anyone on the development team of this project is thinking about a career in video game design, I suggest re-thinking your life path and go get a job flipping burgers at McDonalds or something. In the real business world, people don't appreciate being fucked around and given false promises only to have their time wasted. If the real EA sports tried to pull that shit, the company would collectively have their asses nailed to the wall with law suits and be run out of business until they are bankrupt.

I would just like to say to anyone who, like me, wishes to enjoy an NHL hockey game without having to go out and buy a console in order to do it; to think twice before wasting time on this joke of a download.

Wow. I think I’m going to cry...

Why don’t you go get a life in the business world, maybe at EA? Oh sorry, they need problem solvers not people who gets disappointed if their toy is not working, cry-baby. This is a hobby. Who cares if you’re disappointed, mr. diSSapointed? It’s funny how this project works for 99% of the people here, but you, who is especially placed in the 1%...loner.

Smh...I have been trying to figure out why my game crashes for 3 weeks now and you don't see me crying! It's nobody's fault brotha. Obviously people on here are enjoying the game and don't have too much trouble. Maybe follow the directions a little better and see if you missed a step somewhere? That's where I am right now!

Well he certainly joins a forum in a big way, "him just can't get his little game to load". I hope this don't mean he'll quit the forum too......................... Hey Hush stick with it. I promise it will be worth it. Franco and St.Louis, you guys do a great job and still take the time out to respond to those who suffer from "little dick" syndrome. A tip of the hat to you both.....amazing.

Your idiocy isn't the fault of the developers.

Save up your burger-flipping money and buy a console.
