  1. Finnished God of War: Chains of Olympus... seriously dissapointed about the length of the game
  2. they are hurting them, as much, as the seconds hand sale of used cars is hurting car industry... it creates more new car sales... fighting this is the most stupid and ridiculous idea ever...
  3. Bioshock did that and probably quite a few other Online Securom using games. @ all the hate. There is nothing wrong with the idea itself. If you don't see anything wrong with the idea of buying game for 50EUR and then paying another 10EUR for final boss fight, so just you could finnish the game, then i say, there is something wrong with you I was speaking of the model where you get the first part for free or for ~$10 and then pay another 10 for another part and get about the same value out of them at $50 as you would a normal $50 game. All that changes in this case is the initial investment. As for paying for demos, we hardly ever get demos any more. The model you describe would be a ye olde "screw the second hand market" trick, if the cost comes out the same in the end, it doesn't really matter other than being slightly less convenient. I am not affraid to bet my ass, that this move is again more about ****ing 2ndhand sales customer rights in the ass, than about piracy...

  5. Or what about using already established way of distributing incomplete software? You get part of it for free, and if you like you buy the cut-off content... Shareware worked great for id Software and Apogee...
  6. LOL... Did they not learned anything from Toyota, which definately sold unfinnished cars???
  7. Red Dead Redemption team axed... http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2010/07...n-team-axed.ars
  8. No JRPG bashing in interview this time? I am seriously disapointed!!!
  9. Little Big Planet, Mod Nation Racer and Unreal Tournament 3 would like to say something different about modding on consoles...
  10. Thanks for cheering me up in this crappy hot morning
  11. WRPG dev finally seeing potential in portable platforms, this is only overdue by about... six years. edit: that sonic game/thing doesn't count. But they are still missing the point, that handhelds are not just for the kids... I bet this will spawn ****loads of ESRB rating 3 ubercrap games... and maybe in another 6 years they will finaly figure out the true potential of this platform...
  12. You should be able to use an offline account for that.... Or download a "fix" Anyway, I am playing Planet Alcatraz... I am realy enjoying it... It's very close to Fallout, but it has real-time combat... if you like these sort of games, you should try it out... It's $19.95 on Gamersgate... But beware, the game has one of the worst voiceovers i have ever heard but still worth the money!!!
  13. Steam != every DD in the world... i am using few digital services without problem... they have less intrusive DRM, which does not infringe on my customer rights...
  14. I don't have problem with Digital Downloads, I do have problem with Steam's DRM...
  15. Depends on DRM... Steam only games without any other possibility of download/buy them is automatic skip for me...
  16. I'll hold you onto this if you do buy it... I have no problems boycotting products, there is plenty of other products to choose from with much better offerings of DRM... I will not be left without having fun
  17. http://planetfallout.gamespy.com/articles/...w-Vegas-Steamin -1 sale then...
  18. that would be 1st bethesda game, so unless you give me source...
  19. D2 had an option of very simple zoom ... not seamless, it only made your character 4x bigger and the view of surroundings 4x smaller, but it had it nevertheless... so i do not think D3 will be without the possiblity to have at least such a simple zoom aswell, unless ofc Kottick found something "more appropriate" for the franchise...
  20. I did read all the posts. If you understand latency, then why'd you make a post that would infer I should ascribe various "signs" to you? 720p at 32-bit color is already going to exceed even the 25Mbps connection's bandwidth without data compression (it's about 30 million bits for a single frame). Obviously there is data compression involved, which is why I'd be curious how it runs at a lower bandwidth. Because this would actually allow me to infer if the latency at 25 Mbps is due to the bandwidth, or the latency of going through server switches and/or any other restrictions on the latency. Stating "And it is much worse than i have thought ... average latency of ~180ms on 25Mbps Fibers??? Don't make me laugh..." without any other frame of references literally indicates that you feel bandwidth is the sole contributor of the latency. You don't have enough information to make a "don't make me laugh" comment, yet you did. Bravo /clap You're the only one that brought up 1 Mbps. No kidding the service will suck if you are below the requirements. I'm sure today's games don't run on my TNT2 Ultra very well either! *sigh* And you are making mistake, that you think that everyone on the earth without the need of posting 2 pages long essay about how speed of light cannot be overdone, and therefore you can't get faster latency with your 1Gbps fiber, does not have a clue about the stuff he is talking about... the faster bandwith contributes to lower latency as well, because you have more bandwith assigned to the same number of data. therefore you have lower chance of collisions and lower chance of your packets getting re-routed through some L3 device in Malaysia, while traveling from your home computer to the OnLive server... thank you for your understanding...
  21. That's why I am saying, that your latency will go skyhigh with 1Mbps... *sighs*
  22. And it is much worse than i have thought ... average latency of ~180ms on 25Mbps Fibers??? Don't make me laugh... I'd be more curious how it'd still run on 10 Mbps connection. Giving it a 4000000 Mbps connection isn't going to make the latency very low if you have half an understanding of how networking works. read few posts up... i know how it works... But if you have 1Mbps connection for Onlive, your latency in 720p will go into the heaven, because, you do not have enough bandwidth to get all the required data... For awesome latenscy you need to be close to the server and have enough bandwidth to handle all the data... read 1st all the posts before you point at someone with "stupid" sign... thank you...
