But see that's the whole point. When you already have a cushion of lets say, a few million subs, you can get away with stuff like that because most of those subs are going to stick with the game no matter what you churn out. When your starting from 0 (ala Rift) and churning out WoW knockoff...

Can a caps fan give me the condensed version of why Semin gets booed as soon he touches the puck? He's been great for us but I also thought he was a solid contributor when he was at Washington?

It's too bad really. I played the hell out of SC4 and I'm usually into city-sim type games to begin with but I can't/won't plunk down full value for a game that is in many ways very broken. The DRM part of it doesn't even bother me that much, I would forgo that for the newest generation...

At some point one has to wonder if some people are putting up with all these issues simply because it says 'SimCity' on the box. I can pretty much assure you if this game was called anything else other than 'SimCity', it would already be bargin bin material.

It's pretty obvious how this is going to go down. Rick is going to cave and decide to hand over Michonne, they are going to trot up to Woodbury to do the handoff, Governor gives the order to mow em down except Michonne, Woodbury peeps hesitate since they realize that's murder, plus a couple...

Is that as big as a city gets because that looks pretty small. Looks like a subdivision, not a city.

What's funny to me is in a lot of the reviews so far, the game has some serious design flaws to begin with which in theory brings the review score down anyway, the online difficulties are just adding to the issues. I do have to wonder if the game has reached the point of no return yet as far as...

Headed to PNC tonight to watch the Canes/Devils. Maybe I'll get lucky and actually see Carolina score a powerplay goal since those seem to very few and far between these days.

What happened was they designed and marketed the game towards the burnt out WoW player, but didn't put enough things in to make it stand apart from WoW, at least enough to not burn out those players for the same reasons they were burned out in WoW. Player attachment is the absolute truth, there...

Considering the fact I didn't have any of the Civ V content, that package at $12 was a steal for me.

Perhaps someone can assist me with the geography, but I'm wondering how they wound themselves back to the town that Rick was the sheriff of? I'm assuming when they went to check the police station, that was the same station that he went to in season one? I guess I'm having a hard time figuring...

Just finished the 2nd book. I think my issues stem from the fact that some of the scene transitions are so sudden that it's jarring. One minute he's getting the piss beat out of him and then he back to telling the story in what seems like minutes. 2nd book dragged on much more than needed. I...

The flip side to this is depending on how long they were in preschool (mine was since she was a baby), they are pretty much immune to most things by the time they hit elementary school. This is her kindergarten year and she's only missed one day due to sickness whereas a lot of kids in her...

I second this. I've used the online version for the past 3 years, no issues whatsoever. It also has a real good solution finder for most anything.

I agree the show isn't as great as everyone else seems to make it, but you have to admit that this forum has very specific taste when it comes to shows (violence usually wins, sappy love stuff does not) due to the demographic of the board. It's one of the reasons why most of the time, the...

All you guys are great. Never change. You make the internet (and all the stereotypes associated with it) what it really is.

All I know is some of the drama that goes on this forum is wildly more entertaining than a majority of movies that come out nowadays. The last few months will go down in internet forum lore.

It's amazing the shit we complain about with this show, yet still watch it. My biggest pet peeve is how they are rolling around in cars (Hyundai and the truck) that are basically cleaner than mine, plus obviously have unlimited gas. How none of them can hit the guy in the tower for about 10...

I agree, the book was good, but not great by any stretch. The first third of the book started off really great and I thought it just started going downhill after the 1st gate. The dialogue was gut wrenching at times. I guess what bothered me the most was that the ending was just so...

Except this show has never been primarily about the zombies. It's about the people living in an enviroment that just happens to have zombies in it. They are not getting half the viewership numbers they are pulling now if it's a full hour of just shooting. I do agree though that the writing...

Loved the older Genesis RPG's

I don't think it's possible to have a ranked top 5 of all time, the choices are subjective and endless. Rather, if there was a 'Hall of Fame', the first 5 inductees would probably have to be something like this: Zelda: Ocarina of Time Tetris Doom Final Fantasy VI Super Mario Bros...

Of course it's going to come down to Akers for the win.

God was just tired of watching a blowout and wanted to mix things up. It's on the Ravens that they let SF back in the game though.

Yea I went there

Most mods are optional with the exception of SkyUI which I think is pretty mandatory. I also use UFO for followers, Real Lighting w/customization, Immersive armor and weapons, plus a number of texture packs.

Wound up picking a number of titles that I never got around to in the past. I do agree though that Steam didn't have the 'blow you away' sale prices that their competitors had. The best pack was probably the THQ pack and that was probably undercut by Humble Bundle a week earlier. Dragon's...

Encore week is on. Looks like there is a pricing error with Sleeping dogs, currently at $4.49.

I liked it. It did feel a little long at times but as a whole I'd put it up there with Fellowship. The 'birds saving the day' is probably my main gripe. I'm sure there is some lore explanation as to why they show up at the most opportune time but as others said, it mostly feels as a 'get out...

Finally jumped on tropico but as a whole so far this sale has really been a downer. On 2 titles so far where I usually average 5-7 titles . Maybe I'm finally at that point of getting stuff I got to have.

Although I'm probably not of the generation to really appreciate it, on Christmas Eve we watched It's a Wonderful Life and I think it's great.

Waiting to see what 1PM brings on Steam but this caught my eye on Gamersgate. http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-A2070DE...deluxe-edition Lowest I've seen that and it's the deluxe edition.

I put a lot of time into baseball simulator 1000. Also liked the nes version of strider. Other notables for me: Rygar Air fortress Battle of Olympus Faxanadu Swords and serpents

Endless Space. Yea or nay?

Any opinion on Dead Island? Is it a better game multiplayer vs. solo? Thanks.

If he's going to start blaming video games, perhaps he should use more recent examples instead of those used in arguments 20 years ago, like Mortal Kombat and Splatterhouse.

Nothing catching my eye today either as an impluse buy. That Indie Mega Pack is insane. THQ pack actually better than the humble bundle at $25? Depending on my budget I may gift a game or two on my friends list as I did last year, we'll see.

Steam Christmas sale (and probably the summer sale) has become something of an annual holiday. It's where the bulk of my games purchases comes every year. I bet at least a third, if not more of Valve's annual revenue comes from the holiday sale.
