and I am going to be pissed about 150 dollar worth in fraudulent credit card purchases that I won't be responsible for. Yeah, that's going to be the backbreaker in the whole ordeal. If your credit card isn't refunded, then your insurance will cover to loss. If you don't have insurance, then your an idiot.
would be refunded by the issuing entity. If someone steals your credit card and buys 1000 bucks worth of stuff from from Wal-Mart, you are not liable. Your credit card institution can be an a$$ and say you did make the pruchases, thus requiring a fight on your part. In my case my company didn't and refunded my money. The company doesn't pay MS and MS loses out instead as Wal-Mart did in my case.
is anything over a 1000 dollars in the US and any amount stolen can be a federal offense. Anything stolen or combination of things stolen over 1000 dollars automatically becomes a felony. If someone steals even 5 dollars worth of goods and transports it across state lines, then that becomes a federal crime. I think the guy had over 25,000 dollars stolen and thus the criminals have committed a felony.
I have found Army of Two to be an enjoyable experience. The co-op play really fun and even though the overall game was short I have managed to play through it a couple of times. The 2 verses 2 multiplayer has been okay. It will be interesting to see how well it does with Rainbow 6 just around the corner.
To bad The Club never garnered any interest.
then that is their business decision. I will choose not to support that decision by giving them none of my money. DLC is different from what is generally a patch. Companies charging for DLC is not something new and just because all three console makers have systems that allow them to offer DLC, doesn't mean that this is the new trend of gaming. Consumers always have the final say.
If you think companies like EA will start releasing non-completed products thus forcing you t...
has nothing to do with MS and what they do with their console. Go and take your comments to the open zone.
That being said, EA has the right to do what they want with future DLC and consumers don't have to buy it. If you don't like what a company does with their business practices, then don't buy their products.
and has seen only one really measly price drop. Most consoles by this time would have had a further drop in price than what has occured so far. A price drop before GTA's release would make some sense.
maybe even a year, how well MS is doing attracting the casual gamer. A week is an absurd amount of time to form judgements on a company's success in any market.
I still doubt that MS is going to appeal to the casual gamer at any price point.
is that just the cost of making the PS3 or does that include all the other stuff, like cost of the cables, the controller, the box it's shipped in, the cost for shipping the PS3 to the warehouse or retailer, etc. There are a lot of other cost that go into the equation. What's makes up that 400 dollar cost. Little things may not cost much, but they do add up. Cardboard and gas for shipping, themselves aren't free.
And again, neither Sony, MS, or Nintendo make RETAIL dollars....
Call of Duty. In a couple of weeks the terrorist will once again be going down.
and it's supposedly helps improve against blur in movies by clearing each frame more quickly. It won't help improve your game's picture by increasing the number of frames. Though my 81F 52 inch Samsung back lit LED LCD with 120 hz refresh rating looks very nice when just about any game is played on it.
Rainbow Six 2 is out in a couple of weeks. Army of Two is looking interesting, but I'll wait for a few reviews after not waiting for Turok reviews.
with lots of titles being developed and released every year, but neither is close to being an monopoly. If you look back at Bell/AT&T pre-80's, thats a monopoly. Activision and EA aren't even close.
for the next in the series. Two specters are always better than one.
then don't make the purchase. You don't go into a store, buy everything you see, and then expect people to listen when you whine about how much money you just spent on stuff you never needed.
let them charge money for stuff I wouldn't download in the first place.
a long over due substaintial price drop.
it's still in the wrapper awaiting vacation to come this May. I am not starting it until I can commit to finishing it. I am not repeating my Blue Dragon ordeal.
like Lost Planet, Rainbow Six, and Ghost Recon. A surcharge with the maps being free a few month later is fine. As long as they get into the general rotation.
get in that car and drive back into that same wall at 200 miles an hour head on. Then come back and tell us all about how that car handles.
