Lol, loving the n4g community, with a 7:1 disagree ratio. Well done for protecting those corporate interests eh? Because those are so much better than consumer rights, aren't they?
You should have a right to hack your hardware anyhow you want. Of course, Microsoft have the right to kick you off Xbox Live if you do, but that's their right, and it shouldn't encroach on yours.
Then again, you guys are probably the only fans of SOPA's DNS block...
Yeah, I mean, imagine what people could do if they had access to the internet.
Let's ban that too.
Jailbreaking should be legal on consoles as they are on mobile phones. There is no difference.
No, digital distribution platforms like Steam have fueled growth. It's additive, not a zero sum game. Read what Newell says about the Russian market for example.

I don't think games like Team Fortress are part of the problem. I think that apb has a lot better chance of success, and will provide a bet...
Yeah, I'm sure that Steam, F2P, indie and MMOs have had nothing to do with it.
When PC gamers talk about the growth of their platform, they're not talking about Facebook.
When financiers talk about the growth of the PC platform, they are.
We're greenlighting FAQ articles now? Seriously? If you want a walkthrough, go to gameFAQs.
You should be able to do whatever you want with hardware you bought.
I don't mind that the platform holders kick you off their online services if you mod your consoles, but the ability to do that should be a right.
Yeah, they could have done better with stealth. Stealth in Morrowind and Oblivion were so ridiculous (especially at high levels), thought they would have invested a bit more in it this time.
The UI could do with a lot of work on the PC version - it looks fancy, but could be a lot more accessible. With the keyboard and mouse, you can access the entire screen at once, so they really should have utilised that screen real estate - mods will surely come out though.
Japan.
As much as I love Valve, everyone already has Portal 2, and dota was probably going to be free anyway.
Sure I'll be able to gift Portal 2, but given that everyone on Steam will have it there will be no trade value.
Still, it's better than a worthless tf2 hat.
Instead of saving your credit card data on Steam, use Paypal instead. You can be sure that their is more sophisticated.
This isn't worse. How does this sound worse? Steam is still up.
They're clear that passwords were salted and hashed, which is significantly better than say the Gawker hack. The Steam service is still up (and it f8cking better be with it being MW3 and Skyrim release weekend). Steam Guard means that unauthorised users would have to hack your email as well, so you'd be OK if you had a different password there.
Still sucks though. The hackers have your email address and billing address, which could be valuable.
Exclusive GTA V leak from the N4G comments - the whole story resolves around the protagonist looking for a lost kitten.
Please stop green lighting random forum bullshit.
Note that the next Doom is going to be a 30FPS game though, so they can fit in more geometry, but yes - it still will be the same engine.
Why isn't Fable 2 available on PC, is it because that's the good one?
Cupid, 5/5 does not mean that a game is flawless.
What a stupid notion. Seriously, how stupid must you be to not know this.
" Why would any Gt fan be waiting to see how Turn 10 respond?"
Because they're true fans of gaming, true fans of racing, and they want to see how competition drives the genre further.
Because they're not insecure fanboys trolling Forza threads on N4G.
Well done with the agrees though, you know the N4G audience well.
Your idea of what a review should be consists of a version changelog, or patch notes.
You lost all your credibility on the get go.
GT needs to step it up. Great rivalries make great games.
You can't just rest on your laurels and quote sales figures.
You know the "internet" enables piracy right? Let's ban the internet.
You know car ownership enables GTA right? Let's ban cars.
