I buy all my games retail...but if any games come with DRM and there is no crack avauilable, I would have no qualms about pirating it, it is not a lost sale you see, not from something I would never buy.
Bioshock 2: limited installs + online activation + disk check + GFWL requirement...it reads like a nightmare...but a crack was available, so I bought it.
Steam games too, steam F-ed up both my AVP install and my fear 2 install I now have to download 3-4gig of...
Not from him though ZING!!!!

Him and patcher both have the same degree, a Minor Degree in Common Sense ( M.D.C.S)
Sadly you will be a minority in boycotting the game.
PC gamers said they would boycott MW2...MW2 outsold COD4's lifetime sales in the first week... boycotts never work, but it's still worth trying.
I can add about 500 things to the bug list. But the major ones are:
Passive flame and frost buffs to not add damage to activated skills.
Runes to not add their damage to activated skills.
aka my character does more damage using standard attacks than they do with the active skills. It is better to use only passive skills as the damage still adds.
So with a sword and shield character, none of the attacking skills of shield bash...
Bioshock was amazing, it just should have ended after you killed andrew ryan, atlas/fontaine could either have escaped or you could have immediately had a fight with him. But they dragged it on for too long...
Trying to put a positive spin on fanboyism is not contributing to the site, it's the same front page mentality that leads people to get caught up in the marketing hype and argue in every single article on behalf of companies who don't give a F who you are or what you think.
ATI sold 11 million DX11 video cards this year...yet they did not make a cent, they lost 43 million... similar story with Sony...fanboyism is not a sign of success on the part of the console, it is...
I don't know why you think any online service is worth paying for.
Doesn't XBL have ads?, ads that generate revenue for MS...which should subsidise the cost of the service...
Not to mention that it funnels people though a program that sells XBL games...again another way they could absorb the cost. But no they passed it on to you and you are happy about it, what does that make you?

The Wu-Tang fighting game on PS1?
The problem is not with the fees...it's the idiots that pay for it and set the precedent that piss me off. I don't buy ANY DLC... which is more than can be said for most.
I didn't say they shouldn't have fees, I said they should charge less for the initial purchase price...
You think full RRP purchase price + full RRP expansions + full price subscription fee + account reactivation fee is justified????
I sure as hell don't. There is a reason why 75% of Activision's profits come from WoW...THEY CHARGE TOO MUCH
People pay for online play? that's crazy talk.
MMO's are a rip off too. The initial purchase price should be halves as it requires a subscription. But suckers will pay for anything with a price tag, as long as they are told they are getting value.
My comment did not get owned, I provided an example perfectly relevant and contrary to his claim. Then he says it doesn't count. It does count, delusional fanboys can't handle being wrong, he is clearly wrong, I explained why and he couldn't handle it. Anyone that tries to pass of fanboyism as general consensus is clearly trying to justify their immature ways. I did not misunderstand the point of the article, I understood it perfectly. Did you?
Yet judging from the people who visit this site like yourself ( who do fit in the fanboy category ) those wii gamers are arguably more mature.
What sort of person goes online and acts like a fanboy?
1. Only children
2. People with self esteem issues.
I like the way you deflected the way my point makes your article out for what it is, full of $#!+. You stated that the number of fanboys is a measure of a consoles popularity, I pointed o...
There are more Wii gamers than 360/PS3 gamers by far yet there are almost no nintendo Wii fanboys...article debunked.
"it needs to differentiate from other shooters.
I dont see it "
1. Nanosuit.
2. OPEN WORLD
3. Epic battles....name another shooter that has a boss the size of the hunter aliens in crysis...
Crysis is extremely different gameplay wise to other shooters.
Why?....honestly, what about Kinect would make playing a fighting game easier, playing fighting games is hard enough trying to get the combos when you have to move your fingers a few centimetres....when you are using imprecise motion detection that will won't pick up on small twitches, it would be a $#!+ tonne harder.
O.T
We don't need 5 reasons, Killer Instinct was an amazing series, it is long overdue.
In the biz...we call those kind of outburst 'only child syndrome'...when people don't pay them attention...they start yelling until they get candy
@gcolley
No candy for you. To the corner!
I installed rygels high res texture mod for both crysis and warhead and despite the fact that they had some major parralax occlusion mapping making them very 3d like and expremelly high res...overall they made the game look worse in my opinion. I never would have thought that higher res could look worse, but unless you are staring at the ground...it changed the game in an unnatural way. I'm sure if the devs made the higher res textures in keeping with their art style it would be different...
Looking forward to this, I get the feeling like it will be delayed until 2011...call me crazy but we really haven't seen/heard that much about it, just a few gameplay clips. They haven't demoed the PC version or even annoucned it's feature...funny if the PC version was delayed until next year and the console versions weren't I personally wouldn't car but i'm sure a lot of PC gamers would be pissed.
I'll have my new video card by then, and a new mou...
