I have a comment on that - the games you are describing lack the complexity of modern games. X-Com came on floppies if you wanted it like that, and its code base was only a fraction of something released today, like SHIV for example. So I think the comparrison being made is more of an apples and oranges thing.

I think the problem could be best described as all games now days will have bugs - no way around it, but that some games are pushed out the door with their developers knowing all too well that it has some major hole in it. That is the real problem! That is the problem that needs to be addressed.
