There's so much ignorance about piracy on the PC, it's ridiculous. There's a ton of piracy on XBOX and PS3 as well. The main reason piracy is so rampant on the PC though is because there's no way to rent a game to see if you like it. I'd bet 3/4 of the people that pirate a certain game never even finish it because they thought it was crap and they just delete it.

The numbers they post about how much they lost to piracy is inflated and utter BS. Those...

UE3 and Frostbite 2 are next gen. This looks nice but it's not at the same level as those two, and currently, the only way you're going to get UE3 and Frostbite 2 quality is on the PC. Sure there'll be games that use those engines on consoles, but the graphical fidelity will be reduced so that it can run well.

WTF is this? A game? A movie? A mod? I have no idea what I just watched.

You do realize that what you just described is essentially what the Commander did in previous BF games, don't you? The Commander could place air strikes anywhere on the map to take out tanks, heavily defended flags, etc.

This is why I'm pretty upset that they took out the Commander feature. WTF?!? To make it more accessible? What kind a reeree couldn't figure out how to place a uav, air strike, send in supplies, or give a squad an objective to take?

People need to go prone to make their profile smaller so you aren't a giant target for others to shoot at.....you know, kinda like REAL war tactics.

The thing I hated most was not being able to hide from tanks and vehicles. You are a sitting duck if one spots you. You can't hide behind stuff because it just gets demolished. And if you have C4 and want to take it out, you have to hide behind stuff in order to sneak up on it. Without prone, it's nearly impossibl...

How about the ability to go prone and some better controls than BC2? That game made it feel like your mouse movements were moving through molasses. So sluggish.

I found a vid that explains it and the Razer operates the same way the controller in the vid that I provided operates. They call it "ratcheting" where you are able to move your controller without moving on the screen. This vid explains it all and I hope the developers for future FPS games look at this and implement something like it.

That's exacly what I'm talking about. I don't want a bounding box like they have shown in all the Killzone and MAG demos. Those vids that you provided are exactly like what I was hoping for. The vids don't show much of how it's accomplishing it's movement but that's how I want the reticle to look; fixed and moving quickly and accurately. It's hard to discern the difference from a mouse and KB and the Razer controllers in that vid and that's exactly what...

I hate how slow it is to turn with the Move. I can think of better options to improve this but I have yet to see one good implementation. Turning is slow enough with a controller. Now it's unbearable with the Move. I'm sure many will disagree with me but I just don't know how anyone but new players or players that absolutely loath controllers, could stand turning so slowly. Developers have even said that people that use controllers are better than Move players in MP because o...

Title says it all. Kotick and Activision are a bunch of hypocrites. They say they should charge more for their games but other companies should charge less when Activision has to publish games for it. What a bunch of BS. I can't stand Kotick.

If you're going to try and insult me, why not do it with proper grammar? I was just trying to save some people their money.

I purchased this when it first came out and I was VERY disappointed. It has lag. It "stair steps" If you try to trace a random object, you can't. It will be jagged like steps. Don't waste your money. It works better with certain games and certain mouses (yes, that's the plural for a computer mouse). If you're expecting to pull of headshots in KZ2, you can forget it. That was the main reason I bought the thing and it was awful. Slow, laggy, and imprecise. Ju...

If they start charging to play MP, there will be a HUGE increase in piracy. They are just going to make it worse with a move like this. There's no way I'll pay for it. I refuse to pay for MMORPG's like WoW and I can understand why they would charge a small fee for that. There's NO reason to charge for MP on FPS's since gamers foot the bill for servers (unless they F*CK us over like MW2) and there's no additional service provided by the game maker.

You have a right to your own opinion but I really feel most reviewers are biased towards the game and are basing their reviews on the console versions (that and some are paid by Activision). The PC reviews I've seen are not nearly as high as the console reviews. Many being in the 7's to 8's. Not bad scores but for $60 I want the game quality to reflect the price.

The game uses the same engine as COD4. It's just tweaked a bit so it has better textures. Nothing major.

A lot of them pirated it. If you ask me, it's not even worth it. I've played it quite a bit at a friend's and it is bad. Not only is the SP only 5 hours long, it's crap. It's a schizophrenic mess that screams that the story was done by a committee that pretty much just stole the plot from the movie Red Dawn and twisted it around a little.

Coop is just a tack-on where the computer AI is so horrible that it's a joke. There are a couple of them that are okay but once you've don...

Keep telling yourself that cheaters are the reason they are doing IWNET. Have you played a game on steam? L4D or TF2? They are going to use the same anti-cheat measures that this game will use and both those games have cheating. This will not fix cheating at all.

The real reason they are doing this is purely profits. The PC market share for this game is very small when compared to the consoles so they don't really care what the PC consumers have to say because they know that...

I'm sorry, but if you think playing on LIVE or PSN is lag free, you don't know what lag free means. I can tell when my ping is over 100 without even looking. There is a HUGE advantage to players with better pings with is what the host will have and even if everyone had the same 150+ ping, it still feels like garbage because of the delay.

If you're in a clan with players spread across the world, you can forget about playing together because the pings will be so horrible.

If Valve doesn't want to come off looking like a money-hungry company, they should offer L4D2 for a discount for those that bought the first. It's basically just a mod that should have been DLC anyway.

To charge full price for a game that has no story, a single player that lasts 3 hours, and very little other new content to warrant calling it a new game is BS. This is why some people turn to pirating. The gaming industry needs to realize this.

People are angry because they were lied to/mislead. Valve said they would support L4D with more content. Instead they released the maps that were supposed to be in the original game 5 months after the fact. Now they want to charge full price for what essentially is a mod. New skins, weapons, couple of new SI's, and some maps. Nothing that couldn't have been done in a DLC release.

In regards to COD. COD is made by two different developers. IMO, Treyarch doesn't even exist s...

i think spore is very boring. all it is is a mish-mash of several gametypes all rolled into one game- and none are very polished or deep. to top it all off, it's way to easy. so far, i haven't seen any repercussions for dying.

the only really innovative aspect of the game is the creator system that allows you to create creatures, buildings, and vehicles. after you get tired of making penis monsters, there's really nothing left to do with the game.
