I don't know how it is for people across the pond, but where I live the cost of games has stayed the same for over 25 years. The only thing that has changed in that time is the value of our currency.

Games cost $60 today, but they cost $30 in the mid-80's. Games cost just as much back then as they do now if you factor in inflation.

The point I am making here is that the so-called "outrageous prices" are actually just the normal prices that ...

It does not take that long to figure out if a game is good or not. Do you really think a reviewer needs to get to the end to figure out if a game is worth playing?

If you don't want to read spoilers then stay away from gaming news sites. You only have yourself to blame.

I just have a few things here that I feel you should understand about business, and life.

A) The point of business is to make money.

B) The "Back to Karkland" pack will be available for purchase about a month after launch. The "undecided" will have an opportunity to get it then.

C)Life was never designed to be fair.

I will go ahead and use another bubble to admit that it is plausible that they could make a sequel that fits between HR and the original Deus Ex. There is a fair bit of time between the two.

The sequel to Deus Ex: Human Revolution was released like 11 years ago.

I bet it had nothing to do with being killed, and everything to do with the little shit mouthing off. I am a bit conflicted about this to be honest.

Part of me understands that a middle-aged man should be mature enough to mute and move on. Another part of me thinks that the little shit probably had it coming. Let's be honest here folks. A lot of kids these days could use a good ass whooping. It is good for the soul. Hell, I could use a good ass whooping.

Is a cheeseburger better with bacon on it?

I am a fan of VAC personally. If someone cheats in an online environment they should be segregated. I don't want to play with cheaters.

I think losing access to the games you paid for is rather draconian. That being said however, since I don't cheat I don't really care about the punishment. The only thing I care about is not playing with cheaters.

Smaller maps is quite literally "less battlefield".

I never once even considered the idea of a first person Diablo. As far as terrible ideas go, that ranks right up there with tofu bacon.

You missed the point entirely. Deus Ex: Human Revolution is not about consequences. The fact that nothing you do up to the ending affects the ending is proof enough of that.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution, much like its predecessor, is a game that is about freedom of choice. It is a game that offers multiple solutions for all of the problems you encounter, except for the boss fights. Those are pretty straightforward.

I would argue that you do care about negative ...

Well I don't need to upgrade.

I have 2 Radeon 6970s, 16GB of 2000Mhz RAM, and an Phenon II x6 Black Edition 1100T processor.

Having a teammate would take away from the experience? I don't know if they are aware of this, but on the battlefield soldiers tend to be accompanied by other soldiers. The military has this crazy idea that people working together is better than people working alone. It seems to be working for them so far.

Yeah that has always amused me. People spend money on a game, and then spend more money to not have to play it.

Why would you pay $30 for it now when it will be free next month?

I only shoot civilians if they have an attitude, with the exception of MW2. In MW2 I shot civilians because all the NPCs were doing it and it seemed like a good idea at the time.

"I'm tired of paying $60 every year for DLC on disc with renamed perks, because that's what it pretty much looks like."

I don't understand. If you are tired of doing it, then why do you do it? I mean, not buying something is the easiest thing in the world to do. You don't even have to get out of bed to not buy something.
