I rarely pay $60 for a console game. I'm typically patient and wait for a used copy or a significant price drop. The economy sucks, so I'm not going to give in to the nickel and diming of the consumer. Screw them.
I really hate how every little thing goes up in price when the economy sucks. Nickel and diming the average person does not work. These companies are just hurting themselves and causing more layoffs. Dumbasses. |

This type of mmo is dying out quickly in the west. I just don't see the genre surviving if it stays on this track. And from the looks of some of the games coming out, I think we'll see a genre shift in the near future.
As far as this game goes, they'll probably get a lot of subscribers at first, but I don't think the game will hold their attention for too long.
This genre has a really bad case of 'been there, done that'. I guess you could say that about most other genres, but the problem with this genre is that the story doesn't save it like FPSs and single player RPGs.
The same goes for most RTSs. Now that's a genre that has been burnt out for a really long time. I feel like no matter what game I play, I'm really just playing the same game over and over, and that's how mmos make me feel now. |

I feel sorry for Australians. Anything more adult than Mario Party gets banned.
I feel sorry for the developers. The Australians can always download a warez version. |

I guess people still haven't figured out that Turbine is just a money laundering outfit for the Boston area.
Yeah, because it couldn't be about creating great games like LotRO.
I think you're up for 'dumbass comment of the day' award. |

So Beatles Rock Band is basically all their shit pop music?
I think you've got that the other way around. The original Rock Band is the shit pop music. This one is the Beatles Edition. Highlighting the music of one of the only bands that were able to create truly timeless music. |

"It was called episodic content and it failed miserably."
Exactly.
Also, why would I want to invest in something that gives me no return? The only thing I'd get in the end is the option to buy a product that I invested in.

Honestly, this game looks more like WoW with crosshairs. I'll probably play it with my old Planetside buddies, though.
What the hell are you talking about?!? This game is NOTHING like WoW. Jeezuss, is that the catch phrase of the year or something?
This has real-time combat, climbing and hanging off walls and ledges, jetpacks, and so much more that doesn't even fall into the same category as WoW. Sheesh!

I actually liked the game, but only played to level 10. I just feel that it didn't offer anything new. It was basically just a WoW clone with auto-aim removed and a lot of bunny hopping. The artwork was nice and sound was ok. For a f2p game, it's probably a good deal considering that the quests are quite unique and fun. But a monthly sub, you might as well hold off for APB or Global Agenda. Those games at the least don't play like WoW.
I played WoW for 4 years. The last thing I want to play is a game that has similar rules and similar gameplay. Been there done that. These mmo devs need to forget about WoW. |

Your entire post is such a mischaracterization of my approach to these forums as to be completely backwards. I have allowed almost compete freedom from moderation to allow discussions to go where they may.
Your reaction to me questioning the rush towards stupidity only reinforces my growing feeling that I need to, in fact, do as you say and start drawing arbitrary lines based on my subjective standards, because the laissez-faire approach has created a breeding ground for trolling. The fact that you claim that I have done so already says you won't miss this freedom of expression when it is taken from you, since you haven't appreciated it when you've had it.
Perfectly said. |

"Sony: Warcraft will eventually be dwarfed…
Sony reckons that World of Warcraft’s success will eventually be dwarfed by an MMO that caters to the Facebook crowd."
Which means it has to be a full blown casual game that's free. The Facebook crowd would not pay for Facebook if they started charging a fee. He doesn't mention that in the article. So there's really no science to that article at all. |

Definitely one of my favorite Beatles tunes.
