going back to this whole patching games thing. i'm not exactly sure how the PS3's internet works, but if it's the same wireless connection that my computer uses, this could cause big problems for people who don't have access to wireless internet in their homes (i.e. poor people like me). i would hate to have a buggy game that has fixes for it out there for me to download but not have the capacity to download said fixes. i know the internet is taken for granted these days, but i have lived without a connection in my home for the past year and i'm sure other people have as well. my apartment is simply nowhere near a wifi hotspot and i can't afford to pay for any connection that is run into my apartment. i'm sure i'm not alone in this boat.
to me, the fact that bugs CAN be fixed post release is a good thing, but companies should try to iron them out in advance for those people who don't have access to the internet in the place where they'll be playing their home console.
