I like this screenshot most so far. Looks very sharp.

Finally! Adam, is that DLC integrated into the main campaign, or is it a separate adventure? And most importantly, how long is it? OWB size, etc?

The more I play, the more I wish they would use some of Alpha Protocols features in a sequel, like dossiers, a perk system and timed dialoge for some decisions. Oh, and what is the 'level' cap?

So what do you think will they announce on Monday? Sequel or DLC?

Lonesome Road coming September 20th; Courier?s Stash and Gun Runners? Arsenal one week later

Still playing Age of Empires Online. I have to admit the game is addictive. The missions are becoming a little bit more challenging, too. Hmm...

Yeah in 10 hours.

F2P games = for publishers which believe to make more money. I haven't asked for an AoE F2P game. But if Microsoft decides to go that way they should it do right. 100 Euro for a season pass? 20 Euro per civ to get the proper missions? Are you serious, Microsoft?

I'm sure there are better F2P games than this.

Played a little bit Age of Empires Online. Boring game. They call it F2P? It's actually shareware.

New ME3 details.

Nexus was fine, but I still wish they would have made Imperium Galactica 3. Nethertheless, this is next to Homeworld the best thing you can get.

Avadon for 6,29 Euro. I will give it a try.

I haven't read anything about this. But that would be something different, because in this case it would be the retailer who tries to lock out the consumers.

I wouldn't say it's forbidden, but the UK version has just different requirements. After all, the manufacturer can decide how he wants to offer a product. And he is not obligated to offer one and the same product within the EU.

The one Activision suggest? 40 Euro. The one from retailers? 30 Euro.

I don't think so. You can still buy a copy from the UK. You just can't use your copy. Free trade is ensured, the the latter doesn't matter. And price discrimination? I wouldn't say that. The consumer from outside the UK is paying the same for the game like an UK consumer.

The new Warhammer MMO is F2P.

No, they did something similar to the German version of Call of Duty 6 and 7. (Both games are using Steamworks too)

Maybe Josh could post a transcript and the sildes on the new Obsidian blog when he returns.

Nope.

EA press conference. Live NOW!

And that would be in the interest of Hasbro? I hope I didn't get it wrong. They are still the licence holder, aren't they?

Only as long as EA shareholders tell him something different. Which brings us to my initial question: Why should EA license another fantasy IP?
