evony suing for copyright infringement?
in what kind of universe is that even possible?
maybe they could take over the eu store from scee, because quite frankly, scee are bloody useless.
that's true, but i bet most of the extra accounts are overseas duplicate accounts, the thing is ms will count all the overseas accounts for the xbox too.
i mean, i have three accounts on both he 360 and ps3, i used to have an australian account when they were giving away free hd music videos to aussie users
the thing is with scotty, and the worm, yeah the move, when you look at it objectively, is ridiculous, but what it did have was that the crowds at the shows absolutely loved it.
and you know why? audience participation, that's why he kept that ridiculous move for so long.
when you watch it on tv or in a game, then it is just kinda ridiculous, but tfor the live crowd, it's their chance to be involved.
i'd vote for kratos, seriously, the most one note character in all of gaming, maybe a close second to gordon freeman.
of course i'd have to run away very fast afterwards because that guy's a frikkin psycho.
the funny thing is, i bet some peripheral manufacturer somewhere had something just like this ready to roll when the game launches, and now they can't. :)
you actually think this is a joke?
even ign wouldn't stoop that low.
maybe requiring everybody to get a permit to have a child is going too far, but some people should not be allowed to have children, just because you can have sex doesn't mean you can look after a child.
some people shouldn't be allowed pets let alone children.
sadly, it's usually only after the child is born and there's some tragedy like this that you know for sure that that person shouldn't be allowed to look after a child.
i would go so far as to question the legality of systems like this online pass, and stuff like steam on disc games on pc.
at least for the us.
there's something called first sale doctrine.
it states that publishers have no control over the transfer of copyrighted works after the original sale, so long as the work was not transferred illegally, say by piracy.
basically that means once we've bought the game/film/book the publisher has no legal ri...
kotick has ushered an era of all encompassing naked greed in this industry.
so i say fuck off kotick you total arsehole.
when and if this industry gets so far up it's own arse that it either implodes or explodes a lot of the blame will go to that pathetic excuse for a man.
how much of a douchebag is he?
he was getting sued for sexual haressment, then his own lawyer ended up suing him.
if your own lawyer thinks you're a thieving...
funny, because they already did, every single preowned copy was paid for when it was sold new, why is the gaming industry suddenly allowed to make money from preowned sales when no other industry in the world does.
look up first sale doctrine, once they've sold it, then they forsake any claim to controlling what people do with their copy, so long as they're not doing anything illegal with it like pirating it the publisher has no right to dictate what we do with it once we'...
if they're really worried about the environment, then they should get the paper for their manuals from sustainable sources, places where they plant at least as many new trees as they chop down.
have you played any of the fifa games lately? fifa 09 had 9 pages of it's manual dedicated to the controls.
feature creep forced on these games to justify the new versions with this ludicrous annual release schedule has made the game's controls just ridiculously complicated.
i don't because i don't buy their identikit, feature creep, annual update sports games any more, well not new anyway, i bought tiger woods o7 for 360 the other week. :)
but the latest sports games they've released have ridiculously complicated controls, and you can't exactly pause the game in the middle of an online game to check how to do a certain move can you?
having a manual open in front of you will be invaluable at times.
and mak...
if you're having fun with the game, who gives a stuff what everybody else thinks?
unless of course it's a multiplayer game, then other people's opinion of the game might affect your ability to play. :)
but other than not being able to find other players to play with or against, i would say if you enjoy it, then keep enjoying it.
games reviews are useful for finding out about the games, but one thing they can't tell you is if you personally will have fun playing it.
at first i thought this game wouldn't be all that good, then i saw some videos, and thought that it actually looked pretty decent, then i played it, and discovered i was right the first time.
i guess that's proof positive that capcom are really out of touch.
funny article, although another world was in fact a classic game.
mind you i think flashback was a better game.
evony and irony, that is genius. :)
