To be (successfully)sued for either you need to prove quantifiable losses caused by the defendants actions. There would be no real way to quantify said "losses". I believe proving the losses is a standard part of tort law, which is pretty necessary because I could very easily say "shadow2797 told everybody I was a rapist", and then successfully sue you for it for an undefined sum if it weren't the case.
What would end up happening is Bungie brings a lawsuit an...
Alright, the deal here is that HHG can NOT be sued for this. It's a 1st Amendment right issue. Fox News has already won the right to lie in the news(See http://www.dailykos.com/sto... I definitely disagree with the tactics being used by both, however we have to support their right to do so or it's a slippery slope as to who can tell us what to say.
However, as far as integrity goes,...
That's kind of the point of the headline, to basically call BS on anybody questioning that kind of thing. It draws a parallel between the other entertainment media and video games.
mainstream media paints a picture of video games being such a different medium for entertainment to be released on. I read this news story from the aggregation site fark.com. How many movies are released every year that depict horrific rape scenes or murders? If a video game were to offer a scene like that in the level of detail Hollywood shows, our community would be absolutely vilified for creating such a horror accessible to our children.
So here's a news story about it. :D
getting this game, however I have seen it played. The reason I am not purchasing this game is not due to ActiVision and Kotick being absolute sphincters, nor does it have to do with all of the decisions made for the PC version to be pretty much "gimped". I have not researched either of these topics myself and can not offer any absolute conclusion about them. Sure, they fueled my ire for this game, don't get me wrong. All of the "LOLz KODICK IZ SATAN OF GAMING" comments wer...
I guess I meant not in the sense of licensing issues, but Sony is still contributing to Microsofts profit margin by proxy. My bad coach. ;)
hope you guys know that all of those Sony Vaio's with Windows are essentially the same thing. It's not these companies that hate eachother; it's dipsh!t fanboys like yourselves that hate the companies.
The Turbo Tunnel is easy as pie. I can beat that crap with my eyes closed.
The rat race, though... the rat race is impossible.
a lot of Halo and MS hate here. It's not like they're charging 40 bucks for a demo. ;)
Just playing guys, just playing.
I come to this site every day. Seriously. I rarely comment, and I'll tell you why.
It's things like this that drive the average gamer away from this website by continually bashing on a specific console, developer, exclusive game, etc. Now, the bad thing is when one very prolific member of the community represents a certain side of the self-propagated "console war" and not only comes off like a complete douchetard while doing so, you represent YOUR side of the war. You b...
That's where some of the logic could be flawed in some instances.
Speaking as a parent (although of a small child), especially in this economy, I don't give a damn about a Blu-Ray player, not even for myself. I want a PS3. I want to play Metal Gear Solid 4. Killing two birds with one stone last year was a great idea, but now that everybody is basically on a needs canceling out wants basis, if your little child NEEDS to have the Dark Knight then DVD will have to settle in most cas...
In my iPhone?
It's more likely than you think.
I was just under the impression that they had some other games lined up that were far more exciting, or at least will sell better than that. Just a matter of personal belief and being able to predict the future, I suppose.
Anybody touting that somebody should go back to school should not try and put their wiki-knowledge on a pedestal.
edit: oh, maybe I can wiki that too, eh internet tough guy? Also, checking out the dictionary for the difference between "opinion" and "prediction" may help validate something you say eventually.
Eventually. :D
expansion pack would that be?
it's not an opinion. It's a prediction.
...I'm you! Personified, anyways.
See: inane.
Guess I didn't realize what Serious Business® you were undertaking here.
I think this has a lot less to do with greed and more with plain business cost control. If you take even $.03, and then multiply it by a solid million units produced, you have thirty thousand dollars. If you were to take a much better selling game that goes across two or even all three console platforms, nevermind the PC, there's quite a bit to be saved there. The developers have to keep all of these pennies tracked and in order because producing a game is simply getting more and more expensi...
