I buy preowned for the simple reason its sometimes all I can afford due to Family commitments and the like.
Were as 10 years ago it wasn't really a problem but now with Kids and house, its quite hard to justify paying full price for certain releases which in many cases you wont get your moneys worth out of.
Many games now are not even worth the full RRP if it were not for the Multiplayer portion of some games..
The way he handled himself on Twitter when he posted news was impeccable.. as he quite have easily been unprofessional and let rip with a tirade of abuse back but no he kept his cool which for many people is hard to do ...
I for one hope he moves on to bigger and better things as he seems to know what hes doing contrary to what others might think.. being a creative strategist of such a dominant brand would be very hard to deal with and he did a good job.
The statement about Digital titles is fine for some..if you have the infrastructure in your country to cope with actually Downloading games with in a reasonable time.
A lot of country's are still stuck in the stone age and even here in the UK many places are still stuck on 2MB connections..
A lot of people will read this as and say well buy a better connection.. well many of us UK gamers would if the company s would actually update there equipment at exch...
It will be interesting to see what they do with the story this time as the story in Borderlands 1 wasn't really that great.. the Game world itself was good to roam around if annoying with re-spawning enemies but was an enjoyable game with Claptrap added wonderfully well for Comic relief.
As for PC standard features.. everything I've played after switching to PC gaming has looked a hell of a lot better than its PS3/XBOX 360 counterparts..
Skyrim with ...
Is there a price point on this yet for when its released 20th March ..?
Upper management with no clue on what "proper" Gamers want I think.. so fair pricing goes out the window.
Customers are gagging for Bargains and deals as times have now changed .. seemingly GAME didn't heed to warnings over the past few years about the economy going tits up.. and here we are.
I do agree with HMV though.. never stepped into a HMV store for years now..
I think the "imminent" collapse of GAME is just a sign of things in the UK today as many towns and cities are "dieing" due to the Government and the piss poor handling of this country at the moment.
So many places are going to Administration and going under due to the econimic climate and GAME is just being added to that... although talk of Gamestop wanting to buy them might well be more viable and perhaps bring GAMES ridiculous pricing down as well.
Exactly the same for me. Everything's a hell of a lot sharper and cleaner looking now for me.
By the comments posted it tends to be a PS3 problem in regards to lag.
Myself and friends have have played for a ridiculous amount of time but only mentioned things about textures which for me and countless others is now more or less fixed and most quests Ive undertaken are working as they should.
M4A1 has been overhauled for this COD outing as I was very surprised at how good it is now.
Xbxoahoy has always made quality weapon videos..sounds a little and I mean little like Captain Price ...imo
In fairness Im not actually "butthurt" over one guys review as I tend to make my own mind up when it comes to games....
Most Gamers can make there own assumptions as to whether a game will be decent/Right for them or not based on there tastes and the like.
Although Metacritic comes across as being a little too "elitist" for my liking sometimes but still a "go to" place to get a viable source of scores.
Someone could give this a 4/10 much like the UC3 debacle .. people who love the series will still buy it regardless.
Regardless of glitches and bugs come release with most of Bethesdas releases its the atmosphere and exploration as well as the game-play that sucks so many people into there games and spending hours upon hours in the game..
If any Developer is worthy of crafting a quality RPG.. Bethesda can do it..
These Google Translate articles would be ok if it was actually translated properly..

Ive done the opposite and bought a PS3.. good move I thought as Ive now completed Uncharted 1 & 2 as well as MGS 4.. 3 games in and really enjoying what the PS3 has to offer in regards to Gaming although I do still have the Xbox for the likes of Gears etc.
Good to have the best of both imo...
Well I assume that's me and the rest of the GOW Fanbase well and truly pissed off now...
Ive yet to purchase a PS3 due to money constraints that a family brings and even after this "fiasco" I would still purchase one for GAMING..
The PS3 is a good console and has some games I would love to play..Namely the likes of Uncharted and the MGS stuff and Killzone etc
I am a xbox 360 player and play online a lot and do think the sub is over priced for the 360 but suppose if anything did go massively wrong MS would be quick to dole out some free...
My game that is a good example of a "par" game is Battlefield Bad Company 2 ..
If you read the post again I did mention IMO..
Black Ops is a dire game and doesn't really bring anything new to the table IMO..
were as BFBC2 does for me in shape of Destruction 2.0.
Come May 3rd .. the day were most COD players open there butthole for Activision...
1200 MSP for a map pack .. for a sub par game at best IMO.
I'm hoping they get this Multiplayer right as GOW 2 was quite bad I thought and it took me at least 5 mins just to find a match and then the whole Host advantage kicked in ..
I think they could get a much better stress test for the Multiplayer if they let everyone into the BETA and not because you pre- ordered a certain game edition..
Considering Rockstar are masters at keeping details under wraps and not letting things out the bag so to speak I believe this to be a load of s****...
As far back as I can remember a lot of stuff within there games took a fair while to emerge after everyone could actually play them.. which makes the game even better as you know you can explore and find something crazy without having it spoiled by Internet hearsay and spoilers .
