I think they will, for sure. Either that, or console-games publishers will do what they aren't doing now for PC games: not release the games until they are 100% bug free.

Console games are not 100% bug free - well spotted, have a prize... But you did miss that I said "relatively unbugged". To explain that statement for you, so you understand... it means there are bugs, just less when compared to PC games. As anyone who played SH3 and SH4 on release will know, these games were riddled with bugs that ruined the atmosphere. SH4 was worse though. It wasn't finished on release.

Remember the flying subs and stuff like that... It was horrific. Many modders fixed these things, patches helped, but often modders fixed them before the dev team. Half the modding community emerged because they wanted to fix the games mistakes, not changed a few textures. It took nearly a year of fixes till I was happy with SH4.

SH5 will be bug ridden on release also. Sorry, but it will. Did you listen to the preview vids. Voices swapping between German and American accents.. God knows what else will be in there.

I'm not bothering this time...
