High end graphics are killing the games industry
Maybe if they would be producing more in-house games for consoles, they would be even deeper in red numbers, because of development costs... Their most successful game this generation was Dragon Quest IX for Nintendo DS... And IMO that is one of the reasons, why they shifted more towards handhelds instead of big inhouse AAA...

That defense didn't work for guys that made Napster and ran sites like the pirate bay. But that excuse/defense work very well for american weapon industry, isn't it?

Torment: Tides of Numenera
Followed by Torment with a Vengeance, Play Free or Torment, and A Good Day to Torment. If nothing else, the visuals would be spectacular... and THREEDEE! Not as spectacular as Torment by Michael Bay!!!

Because talking over or requesting things which somebody else already answered two or three post above, is the 2nd most favourite thing to do on teh Interwebz

The prices listed are another thing, but the creator of the software should not be blamed for ill-behaviour of his customers...

Torment: Tides of Numenera
You're picking and choosing lower-tier result words to suit your position, neither of those comes up as the "best" match in GT. And as has been pointed out, more scholarly sources are even less cooperative. And??? Did you by any chance noticed the " :D " emoticon at the end ? Did I anywhere state that my **** pulled right out of my ass just for fun is 100% true and only possible translation of the Numenera name??? *sighs* some people need to learn to take internet less serious...

According to laws of many countries in the world. If you posses the original cartridge of a console game, you are legally allowed to download ROMs from anywhere in the internet world... so he is not doing anything illegal... He is also stating it in his kickstarter...

High end graphics are killing the games industry
I prefer simpler graphics which utilizes full potential of full HD TVs over topnotch graphics which consist only of gray and brown shades... Unfortunately most of the western companies fail at this... I do not play FPS games, but only game which I liked graphics wise last few years was FarCry 3... And I liked the usage of colors in Killzone for PS4... I will not buy this game, because this gameplay does not interest me, but I did kind of liked the art in the game...

Is not the something like "Save Memory State" function viable for PC gaming as it is viable for console emulators?

Pathfinder Newb
It's same and different at same time, hard to explain... but atm playing mostly Pathfinder Society Scenarios and the one I have chosen so far, have mostly enemies not very common in the games I played before... might change sooner or later...

Pathfinder Newb
I do not know, I never played 3.5 because it was ridiculously expensive in Slovakia, but after I started to play this with 4 of my friends, who never played something like this before (CPRGs not counting), most of them fell in love with the game and brought 2 more people to the table... It is not the same but very similar, and melee classes are more powerful at higher levels compared to 3.5... That is all I can tell about it after DMing it for 4 months...

Shadowrun Returns
Maybe you are right, but I do not believe my mail to Microsoft would had been read by the responsible person for this deal... HBS is smaller company, so there is bigger chance, the right people will see it...

Shadowrun Returns
Why is that? You can still back the game and get a DRM free version, as well as the expansion, all patches, and even mods. By doing so you aren't supporting DRM in any way, quite the opposite, you are directly supporting the developer and allowing them to circumvent what Microsoft really wants them to do. Because HBS is now only offering Pre-Orders and not anything like slacker-backer stuff... I will not risk my 75USD for the collector's edition I wanted, just to find out, that it will be Steam only... I have also written an email directly to HBS informing them about my dissatisfaction and lost sale... EDIT: @Humanoid... It was not stated in pre-orders few weeks ago, that you are getting only Steam key... Fortunately for me, I spent to much money on tabletop gaming in March, so I decided to wait for my next paycheck... I ended up very disappointed, but at least I saved 75USD...

Shadowrun Returns
Actually the update makes it pretty clear that only backers will receive non-DRM copies, as Microsoft seems to be making an exception for them. edit: They also say all preorders get the Steam version, not the DRM free one. If that is the case, unfortunately no sale for HBS :/ I am ****ing dissapointed...

Why to make an extra hassle with browsing suspicious websites, when there are other developers willing to sell you DRM free option available out of the box? I am just rewarding with my purchases companies who offer me hassle-less entertainment... Free market at work

That I can live with. I'm still not buying and XBOX720, but that's reasonable. I wish Sony would sell extra addon for BC for PS3 and PS4 consoles as well... I would gladly buy them...

Shadowrun Returns
For that reason, me and most of my friends started to play last two years tabletop games... No DRM, awesome social content and never ever server maintenance... Besides, circumventing DRM is legal here, if you have proof of your purchase...
