This has been happening since the psx days that I can remember.

Wait you like diablo but think this game is repetitive.

Won't different worlds/areas have different theme and artstyle. Maybe one will be all grim dark.

What a shitty thing to do to employees.

They aimed to sell 3 million, they didn't actually sell it.

Well maybe they did when they lowered it to 2,25 on steam sales, but that's clearly not the same 3 mill at full price.

I'm shocked and appalled , I never thought there was any piracy on consoles.

I like piracy a lot, it's great.

It gives everyone with an internet connection access to most games, books, movies and music out there. It effectively multiplies your purchasing power by a thousandfold. Until steam and gog it was also the only way to track down unknown and/or old games, and is still the most reliable. Piracy also allows you to circumvent censorship. This also go's for movies, books and music.

It dramatically lowers the barrier to acquiring a consoles or a gaming pc, as otherwise you spend a couple of hundred bucks on hardware and then you have to pay 60,- or 70,- for a game you never played trough, and even then you could afford maybe 3 or 4 games a year. So that's hundreds of bucks spend on hardware so you can play 3 or 4 games on it.

With piracy that becomes, almost every game released, plus you never ever have to buy a game you never played trough, you can make sure that every fucking cent you spent go's to good developers instead of bad ones. This makes it much easier for many people especially younger ones to own and play games.

It also gives consumers the power, don't like the DRM or whatever aspect, used have to take it up in the ass or just not play the game, now I can enjoy the game while not getting it up the ass. I don't know why, the just don't buy it then argument is brought so much, since it's fucking stupid, really this like one of the biggest boons about piracy.

And I suspect it's also the biggest reason why piracy is hated, since it does give the consumer so much power, and the more power they have, the less you can fuck with them, and the nicer you have to be, so fix the bugs, explain business decisions etc. Without pirating most consumers would take it up the ass, publishers know this, they know organizing consumers is a hundred times harder then it is for a big company.

I also haven't seen any convincing losses because of pirating. Seeing a lot of people pirate a game doesn't tell me weather or not pirating replaced a legal buy or pirating exposed them to a game they went ahead and bought. I'm also not seeing heavily pirated system be negatively affected by it, Many multiplat games sell less on the PS3 then 360, even accounting for the fact there are more 360,'s out there. Although the PS3 version might be inferior. The NDS is way more easy to pirate for then PSP, yet again software sales are good. And as far as the PSP, the piracy and emu scene is the only thing keeping it alive.

The main thing that I would say is killing gaming is the fact that the middles class is disappearing, gaming is getting more expensive while peoples incomes are shrinking.

To sum it up, hundreds of millions of people around the globe should give up something which brings them so much benefit, for the sake of industry that is still healthy and growing and doing it's best to make sure gaming gets more expensive, and more annoying.

Well big fat fuck at other people having a different taste then me.

ME is one of my favourite games of all time. I literally went out and bought it the day after I played trough it. And when it got cheaper I bought copies for a couple of friends. I even bought the dammed DLC. I don't blame Dice or EA for cancelling it, not many seemed to like the game.

The non parody reviews are really good.

2D-chris do you play TF2 because that can be put from FOV 75 to 90, and do you have trouble with that?

It almost seems to me like crysis uses different measurements for FOV, because 55 sounds ridiculously low, and the game didn't look like it in the videos.

Quote from Defrag

That was amazing. I have a particular hate for the blood-spattered screen in games these days

This plus view-jerk in arcade shooters.

Looks like something from little big planet.

Pogo that looks fantastic.

Looked good. Though the sliding looks like it will be the next dolphin diving. Also while for many games the platform doesn't matter, a game like crysis definitely does. The low ram on consoles always demanded more closed off games.

Looks like a B-rate game with some good ideas and a lot of heart and soul. I'll buy it, and couple of more copies for my friends when it gets cheaper.
