You better hope they dont do to it what happened to torchlight when it went console :)
dumbed down so 1 button does big moves lol.
Well Diablo 3 is more of a multiplayer oriented game which is why iw ould be ok with this. However this sort of shit for a game thats focused on single player is inexcuseable
Ill be buying the CD key online for 30usd :P
If EA doesnt want me using Steam and think they will cause me to buy it on origin for more profit, they can think again. Ill buy the CD key download the game and play.
They cant afford not to have BF3 on Steam. Just doesnt busines sense. BC2 sold so well on steam. There is no way they arent having bf3 on Steam.
If you only buy 1-2 games a year then it probably doesnt apply to you, however it just means you could be enjoying alot more games thn you currently do so. 2 games on Xbox 360 a year = 120usd, on a sale during steam the same money would buy you 6-8 games.
Since you game on the Xbox 360 you forget to count you need to play 50-60usd every year, just to go online. That adds up too.
there are about 3.5million peopleonline on Steam alone during peak times, thats m...
Yes i agree but then factor in that every game bought on console is more expensive.
At launch most console games are 10-20usd more costly then PC versions. most gamers buy 1-2games a month by the end of the year that difference alone is 200+usd, by the second year PC is already cheaper and giving you better quality of gameplay(plus its doing alot more then just playing games).
next factor in that PC games prices fall real quick, websites likes Steam and D2D g...
Console gaming is actually more expensive then PC gaming, once you consider how expensive console games are.
The 2600 is an awesome cpu however u gimped the enitre mqchine equipping that gpu. replace it with some thing around 250 usd and u will be set.
U dont need to be. just buy a good one once and u r set for afew years. buy a crappy one and u will just be wasting yr money.
Alpha may not be optimised. when bc2 was being released, i could barely play the beta on my laptop. once the final game was out had no problems running it at max settings.
What is a console?:p
@carlosx360
Only on console. I agree console gaming is expensive.
Pc on the other hand is very cheap, games can be had very cheaply over discount periods from STeam or D2D, most fall in between prices of 5-15usd ;-)
Lol if EA think not having BF3 will make me buy the game from origin, they are sadly mistaken.
Ill buy the CD key for 30usd instead, download it from the EA download manager.
Lol i agree my brother bought a Wii at launch. hes barely bought about 5 games since release. Hardly any good games to buy.
Agreed every platform has had good games so far except the Wii.
Personally a PC gamer i enjoyed games like Witcher 2, shoguns 2, Dawn of war 2 retribution aside many other multiplats.
You get a CD key with the game. you need to go to the "games" option on steam then select "Activate a product on Steam"
Then you enter the CD key, this adds the game on Steam. Note this only works for steamworks games.
"Back in the days of the NES/SNES, game rentals could be had for around three bucks, and I could choose from any number of titles to make mine for a pre-determined rental period.
Sadly, today’s youth will be unable to repeat this experience."
Lol, in todays day and age for about the same money we can buy the game permanently so why rent?
People really need to check out the deals available at Steam or D2D, few days back a game ...
Man i love Civ V but i just think Shogun 2 is better. Both are awesome games in the end.
Lol yea i am waiting for a steam discount to pick this game up. If my backlog runs out which currently is about 20games (all bought on steam discounts) then i may consider, lol by then there probably will be another sale going :P
PC it only gets free HD remakes rofl. If anyone bought the game back when it released they can now enjoy a free upgrade @ 1080p and new textures.
You can bet there will be a crack out for those of us who want to play single player.
Though there wont be a fix to the 1 button doing big moves lol.
