    Microsoft Explains XBL Price Hike

    Isn't the cost supposed to go DOWN when there's more people involved? The cost per user at 400k is much higher than the cost per user at 25m. This is complete, greedy, bullshit.

    StarCraft II Budget Exceeds $100m

    $100m? Big deal. That's less than 1 month's income from WoW alone (more than 12m subscribers at ~$10 per month each). When a company is making that much a month, I do wonder why more people don't complain about having to pay for expansions, and why do people put up with server queues? With that...

    Sony Blocks Online Play On Used Games

    I can't help but laugh at the people who hate Gamestop and think they're scum. No one is forcing you to use Gamestop, and there's plenty of other places you can hock your used crap. Hell, even Amazon is taking your used junk these days, but I don't see anyone jumping on them. If you don't like...

    GameStop Announces $300M Stock Buyback Plan

    Gamestop is currently abusing their Store Managers by forcing them to work 52 hours a week (well above the normal 44 they signed up for) specifically so they can cut down on payroll to save money. Why? They told the Store Managers it's because of the poor sales during the holidays. Apparently...

    Wii Gamers Vulnerable To Crime

    The commercials for this game featured adults playing it! WTF http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsbn1dfHb10

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    Not at all, that's why I posted something relevant. :rolleyes: Maybe, just maybe, the game isn't the same as Sims and people tend to keep with the brand names they know. Not to mention Sims and Spore are -very- different games so there probably wasn't nearly as much interest in it to begin...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    "SPORE is a hit selling nearly 2.0 million copies in just 3 weeks – over 40 million creatures have been uploaded into Sporepedia. SPORE is the number one title on the PC in North America and number three title in Europe year-to-date." -...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    And for lots of people that's true. But the instant you want to resell/give your games away, that's where the cons destroy any benefits it may have. I'd rather have Spore DRM at this point because that's how important reselling/giving my games way is to me. Even if it is only for Valve games...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    Steam is just the better side of DRM, but all DRM is still bad news for consumers. I'm not going to support crappy DRM just because it's less crappy than other DRM. Take a moment and read their SSA. This is exactly what will get your account locked/termed. So no, you can't actually do it (w/o...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    That doesn't stop them from selling hard-copies in retail stores. And these products have the same DRM as the Steam downloaded versions. The point of buying it retail was to avoid Steam. And why does it cost the same for software that you can't even give away anymore? It didn't used to be like...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    Well said. :) I've been bitching about this to people for a long time now (not around here) but there are just too many fanboys who quote me the Steam Subscriber Agreement like I don't know what it says. The point is that it shouldn't be like this, and I can't understand why people are defending...

    Gabe Don't Know Nuttin' 'Bout DRM

    No DRM is good, including STEAM which disallows you to give or sell your games if you wanted. Also in their SSA they plainly explain that they do not have to fix any problems, and they don't have to give you anything in case your account is locked/termed. You could theoretically lose it all by a...

    House Ups Penalties on Internet Porn

    And you know if I didn't call it 'child molestation' you would have jumped all over me instantly, not allowing any sort of diologue. The term 'child molestation' is the only term you'll accept. You're seem to be the type that no matter how much I bring to the table (like those links I sure you...

    House Ups Penalties on Internet Porn

    People talking about how they want to kill other people for doing something they don't like is a prime example of what disturbs me. Somehow talking about slowly murdering someone is still 'better' intimacy between two people.. it's a sad state of affairs.
