  Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo: Lighten Up on the Anti-Piracy Practices!!!

  Dear 3rd Party outside Console Wanna be Maker.
  
  Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo have Opened the Door.
  
  1st Company who offers a Console that does not Punish us Honest Gamers with this INSANE Piracy Paranoia will get my Dollars... probably along with a lot of other Gamers Dollars.
  
  YES... Some people Pirate Stuff. But You are still getting Billions of Dollars from Honest Gamers. So Just Get Over it!!! I ALWAYS bought new Consoles at Launch. I WILL NOT buy a PS4 at Launch because I want to see who is the smallest pain in my butt...
  
  If you are going to punish me because I bought my Game with INSANE piracy practices then I will look elsewhere. PERIOD. I am still trying to figure out how to get the Movies I purchased on PSN to a New System.
  
  Why Can't I just see them on a Download List like the Games???
  
  Guess what... I went back to buying DVDs and Blu-Rays, I will not buy movies on PSN anymore. Only Rent. Good Job to the idiot who drove away my Dollars!!!

  Playstation 3 Firmware 3.00 Bugs and GameSave Locking

  I am having a Bad PS3 Week.
  
  1st My Original 60 Gig PS3 went Flashing Red Light On Me. I bought a Slim as I was Planning on getting a Second one for my Upstairs TV anyways. So I am Using that While the 60 Goes in for Repair.
  
  I heard there is a Good chance I will not get that PS3 Back. So I am gonna lose all my GameSaves...
  
  So onto my Slim and Firmware 3.00
  - I hate that you cannot Pop another PS3 Harddrive in and have it work. That is DUMB.
  - I hate Locking Savefiles so people cannot get Trophies. I like getting Trophies, but I was a Booty Master & Ace a Few Levels away from a Platinum on LBP. On Killzone2 I Just Needed to Finish playing Through on the Hardest Level and Get the No Deaths for Platinum on that too. Now I have to Start Over... Plus in Little Big Planet I Couldn't Edit one of my Own Levels because I didn't Have a God of War Map Pack that I actually had... Not to Mention that I have to Unlock all my Costume stuff again.
  
  - Why, Why, Why, can't I move my Hard Drive over to the Slim. Why if my Old System Gets Replaced can't I put the Old Hard Drive In and Not Have to Format??? Is this to Protect against Piracy??? Why Punish Your Loyal Paying Customers to Stop a Few Moders and Hackers??? Sure there is A Backup Utility but That Takes HOURS when You keep a lot on your PS3. So do you think Many will Use it at regular Intervals. Sony Needs to Consider a Gamesave Only Backup Option, either to External Memory or to Online Storage. Perhaps the Online Storage could be configure for Automatic at Night Time.
  
  - Allow Moving Hard Drives from PS3 to PS3.
  - Make a GameSave Backup/Restore Utility

  EA Charging to Fix Broken Franchise Scouts

  I have to protest the New Madden NFL 2010.
  
  I saw the DLC they have and it seems ridiculous to have to pay for LB Scouts, DB Scouts, Play through the Pain, etc.
  
  This seems as if they dummed down the Franchise AI so they can charge you to fix it. As if they took out something from Madden 09 so they can charge for it in DLC form in Madden 10.
  
  I realize everyone would love to make the kind of money that Call of Duty World at War is making from their DLC. Media Molecule seems to be doing pretty well with their DLC, because I personally love buying new costumes for my SackBoy. However, the Madden DLC seems like a Slap in the Face.
  
  Now my Ideal DLC for Madden I think would sell a TON. How many people would pay for DLC of their Favorite Retired Players? If EA was to add Legends as DLC they would have a winner in my opinion.
  
  Could You Imagine if we could download Legends and recruit them to our Team.
  Barry Sanders, Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, Joe Montana, Emmitt Smith, Mean Joe Green, Lynn Swann, Terry Bradshaw, Troy Aikman, Jim Brown, Brett Favre, Joey Harrington (Thats a joke... I'm an unfortunate Lion Fan), John Elway, Dan Marino, Deion Sanders, Reggie White, Lawrence Taylor, Johnny Unitas, Roger Staubach, Dick Butkus... etc. etc.
  
  That is some DLC I would definitely pony up for.
  
  How much would you pay for DLC Legends?
  Who would you want to see as DLC for Madden?
