You're completely missing the spirit of that idiom, but nevermind that.
Compare all you like, but do it intelligently. What do you know about the production of CoD vs. other major titles? What was CoD's production budget? What were the staffing levels at Maddox Games? How many testers did they employ? What kind of support were they given by third party companies (nVidia, AMD, Microsoft, Valve, etc.)?
If you're comparing apples and oranges and you say "I like apples better" you don't expect God to patch the oranges until they're just as good, do you? Nope, you decide you're just not that into oranges and you leave them alone.
Releasing an unfinished game is disappointing, yes. But inexcusable? To who? You could have waited to see if it was going to run well or if it was in a finished state.
How many games have you purchased that have been in need of repair upon launch? I'm willing to bet more than games than CoD.
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
If you're going to buy ANY game at launch, be prepared for this stuff or stay away from it. It's sad that the game industry is like that now, but it is and it is across the board.
