metadigital Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 It depends on whether they (LA) release anything worth my time or money. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What he said. If I refused to buy from any company that has ever been in any way associated with a game that wasn't top notch, I'd have a different hobby. And probably a cheaper one at that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What they said, and especially Steve's comments on absolute bans and different hobbies. I think the best strategy for all of us, as a group, is to only pay for games that are worth it to us. I for one will not be buying any games, review-sight-unseen, again. It is the supreme act of wishful thinking over hard-won experience to do so ... and any publisher that releases a game before the review code is sent to the game mags for review is obviously doging a bad review, too. I will make a special effort in future to wait for an extra month for previous egregious behaviour, like that displayed by LA with KotOR2.

I waited a few weeks, read the reviews in the trade mags (all were "Mu57 Buy!!!!111!!!1!").
