Op Ed

[H]ard-OCP - Don't Buy Global Agenda.
Does having 4.096 million pixels give you an "unfair advantage" over the guys that have 1.92 million pixels? That is what a gamer sees playing on a 2560x1600 LCD compared to a guy on display supporting 1600x1200 resolution. Hi-Rez Studios has no issue supporting that. According to Hi-Rez Studios' stance, the gamer with 6.912 million pixels (5760x1200 - 3x1 24" monitors) does have an unfair advantage over the gamer with 4.096 million pixels (2560x1600) and therefore, YOU will not be allowed to properly use your Eyefinity or other multi-display configuration to play its game.

Well I think everyone should be forced to play at 800x600 and in stereo (not 5.1) sound. Anti-aliasing is also an unfair advantage and so no one should be able to have it. 30fps should be the game's framerate cap also. Everyone should use ball mice, because optical mice are an unfair advantage. People with comfortable chairs or sofas have a clear advantage so we should sit on the floor. Also people who eat Wheaties might have an unfair advantage.

All this crying about 'fairness' can easily ruin the fun factor. Life isn't meant to be fair. Just enjoy it. Empower us to do that.

When you cry and whine about fairness, you are taking things too seriously.

Political freedom can only be preceded by economic freedom which is preceded by monetary freedom.
