I tried picking up the GOTY edition of Morrowind last week, and the journey that Bethesda sent me on has left a permanently bad taste in my mouth for their ineptitude for console software.
First I purchased a preowned copy as it was $10 cheaper. I went home and anxiously popped it in my Xbox as I wanted to experience the enhanced graphics and assload of new content that the inclusion of both expansion packs would give. Besides, I looked into getting the PC version, and for the same amount of content I would have to pay $35 more for the original and both expansions. (Why Bethesda has not released a warchest for Morrowind, I have no idea).
I chose to play a new game and gleefully saw that the graphics were indeed enhanced. I chose my race then ran into the census office to choose my class. I chose my class and then had a mysterious spell placed on me and the entire world of Vvardenfell that made us all PETRIFIED... actuall the game just froze.
I shrugged off this minor setback and started the game back up, only for the same thing to happen at the same place... over and over again.
So being the optimist that I am I chalked this one up to the case of a used game being defective. I went back to EB and traded it in, plus an extra $10 bucks, for a new copy of Morrowind GOTY.
THE ****ING PIECE OF RANCID MONKEY **** WOULDN'T EVEN LOAD ON MY XBOX.
Now before I work myself into an infanticidal rage, I would like to ask Bethesda one seemingly simple question...
Why does your GOTY edition not work on my Xbox when the original has never had a problem? What kind of severely retarded self-flagellating emotionally scarred nancy boys do you have running your console division? Exactly how many kicks does it take for me to get to the center of your skulls?
Ok, so it was a couple of questions, but I'm a bit annnnnngry.
So, in conclusion, Bethesda can suck me. That is all.
