Big time; doing the math for the first Skylanders game alone, you'll be spending a total of ~$1,000 before taxes to get every individual figure and the game itself (excluding the special editions like the Blue Bash and clones like Dark Spyro). This is also excluding accessories like carrying cases and other things.

$1,000 for just ONE game, and the first one is the cheapest! I'm surprised parents are even giving into this scam. The characters merely look different wit...

Most of it was how the developers acted both before and after ME3. BioWare made specific statements that turned out to be false, which led to people crying "false advertising" (there is a very large list, and professionals specifically stated it was borderline false advertisement). Then there was BioWare stating flat out that anybody who didn't like the ending were too stupid to understand it on top of IGN pretty much running a massive campaign to insult and berate anyone who cr...

I would love a statue of Sin itself, but that would be a great one to have on the shelf as well.

The collector's edition is slightly disappointing to me. As much as I love FFX, artbooks are always full of images easily found for free on Google Image. Would be better if there was a statue or a high-quality accessory like a necklace or something. But that's just me, not knocking on those who are excited to get the artbook and exclusive packaging.

That's different, as you're stating a rule since cars is very specific and likely would be off-topic for your site. Even if you changed it to memes, it wouldn't be censorship due to it merely prohibiting one category. What YouTube is doing is prohibiting just about everything in a very similar way SOPA and it's clone bills were suggesting.

"Self-degrading plea"? So stating that YouTube needs to turn itself around before it puts people out of a job on top of ruining their own site is self-degrading? Worrying about losing your job, which you love and have been doing for years, is pathetic? If that's your view then it is clear you're the pathetic one, not Angry Joe or any other person who makes their living off YouTube.

He isn't making a fool of himself, considering millions actually like his...

Even then, he hardly knows how to react to someone. There's quite a few instances of him acting like a prick towards anyone asking him legitimately good questions as to why this or that hasn't been considered. If it isn't IGN or a reporter from an equally large or popular game reporting site, he tends to act very high-and-mighty towards them.

TL;DR- He's a dick.

Anything you say can cause someone to dislike you, especially your opinions. Having an opinion does not mean you are above reproach, regardless of what your opinion is.

Everyone has a personality, his was just very unlikable and difficult to relate to. Just because they weren't a charismatic and enjoyable personality doesn't mean they don't have one.

All they have to do is have the consumer sign a binding agreement that they will be charged the full amount of a new console billed via credit card or bank account plus a 20% fee for the hassle. Problem solved.

Microsoft may have pissed me off this past gen and with the XBone, but this is hardly as unreasonable as one might think.

If your meal gave you food poisoning, you would complain the end result ruined your enjoyment of the meal. Its not hard to see how the ending can negatively impact the overall enjoyment.

Just ask Activision about Call of Duty.

Nope. Tv, radio programs, and most books tend to be very boring at best while a large enough number of games are good enough to get and keep my attention. Why would I get bored of a clearly superior form of entertainment?

It isn't nostalgia, it's a fact. Wrex was well written in ME1, and Garrus was as well in ME2; he wrote both of them. One cut-and-dry character does not negate that, especially when you actually see that Miranda also was well-written and had some good character development throughout ME2.

He sucked when he took over other peoples' characters and as a story writer. I'm not saying he is the best, I'm merely saying he is capable of being a good writer but tha...

He's better as a character writer (he was the one who wrote Garrus' lines in ME1 and ME2). Why they thought he'd be a competent main story writer is beyond me, though.

Definitely agree on that, Legion. Both sides are very rotten.

You must avoid the mainstream media, such as Faux/Fox News. Plenty of idiots complaining about violent video games right now.

4507d ago 2 agree5 disagreeView comment

No, but it shouldn't be removed either. Allow the racists to blatantly express it so everyone knows. Why? Because the vast majority of people will do exactly in the video game that should happen in real life: beat the living hell out of them and make it clear that their idiotic views will do nothing but make everyone hate them.

And still makes way too much. Nobody should make more than 100,000; nobody NEEDS to make anything more than two million in their entire lifetime, considering two million will pay for all basic living expenses for 80 years and that's if you're paying $2,000 per month (which is rounding up a generous amount).
