Garbage... again.

I got the game and took 30 minutes to do a fantasy draft, import my NCAA roster, draft my created player and start up. I started off with a kick return. I passed for 12 yards. I dropped back again, and it locked up.

Of course, I had not saved it. Whatever. It comes with EA games. I should have known.

I shut the system down and turned it back on. The game said something like 'this X-Box 360 game can only be played in an X-Box 360 console.' I shut it off and let it wait, then ejected the disk and cleaned it. I tried again. It said 'this X-Box 360 game can only be played in an X-Box 360 console.'

I've been online and gotten all the updates. I was using my unmodified X-Box 360 system with the original disk from the factory. EA's games don't work long enough to enjoy before they lock up. Why does EA have to put so much protection in their games that you can't play it on the system it's meant to play on?
