Under law in most developed countries corporations are legaly - people. They have the same rights as any other human. Laws do generally distinguish between "natural" and "artificial" persons, albeit generally not in ways relevant to the context of your point. |

Wow, Dead Island at 50% off was a good bargin, but 83% off? No excuse not to get it at that price. It's 33% off... so, more expensive than yesterday. The earlier price was a mistake. Never been so happy to find out something is more expensive than I'd thought.
(bought it on the 50% sale) |

Their servers must be getting pounded. I'm getting errors and blank screens in the Steam app. Refreshing will sometimes fix it. Sometimes I just get another mostly blank screen. yeah it's fallen over and it's what, lunchtime in the US? |

Anyone know how big a cut the networks take when you donate that way?
Most bank transfers etc (here in UK...) take a pretty small percent and is reasonable value. |

I'd probably buy this if it comes out a good game.
So... I probably won't be buying it then, but I'm open to the possibility that they'll do a good job. However unlikely general experience points to that being. |

Hmm, I already whitelist Bluesnews and a few other sites. My old host file still chops out quite a bit, that approach still seems faster and safer but more to the point most of the entries I no longer remember what they're for, so I wouldn't want to remove them.
I'd expect to be leaving this enabled, though they've got hard work ahead because it's only going to require a couple of bad eggs to sneak through before it gets disabled and forgotten about. |

Is there a reason why you tube embeds don't work anymore at all with firefox and noscript? I can't get it to load at all, just a black screen with the play button showing in the middle. Worked fine for me. Have you whitelisted ytimg? |

Why not just give an official statement now...? I'd guess there's a lot of meetings going on with directors, maybe shareholders and creditors etc, many countries' laws can be quite specific in the procedure including when announcements can be made. And there might be various options still on the table. |

| Razumen, the dashboard updates are a deliberate strategy. It's basically the same as what's going on with smartphones, Steam and/or, say, TF2. It's turning a product-thing into a service-thing. |

Worked for me, noted it does not know about DLC unless listed separately, though it appears to ignore some of those that are e.g. DXHR Missing Link. Possible it includes the latter in totals, I can't check as my prices aren't $USD.
Actually I see it's picked up Civ IV: Warlords, Civ IV: BtS but not Civ IV, nor Civ V.

C&C closer to SC than TA. Relatively small scale and more micro. Especially in MP, for which yeah speed chess comes to mind. Some, generally more casual gamers, don't allow attacking for 10 mins or whatever, to make it more a base-building game.
You've missed out on some games that a lot of people put into their all-time top 10. Usually there's one of: the first C&C, first two RA's and maybe Generals:ZH.

On die would mean using a lot of space of very expensive wafers for a component that can be made on far cheaper silicon and process. It also means your wastage is far higher, every time there is a fault in the memory the cpu has to be chucked out too.
Much more likely is they've confused the on-cpu memory controller or maybe the ram is soldered onto the package i.e. the pcb.
FWIW ram prices are extremely cheap right now, but these guys have to plan for prices over a long period. Nintendo don't exactly go for a powerful machine, their market doesn't really want it and few of their games require it. Doesn't the current one only have 128mb or something? |

Looking more and more like a combat-orientated DX:HR.
...Which is no bad thing.
Still wishing they'd stop calling it Syndicate though. I'd like to kid myself that just maybe someone is working on a proper isometric syndicate. Or even just applying modern graphics. Shit, I might even settle for a FB game, and I hate FB. |

Dramatically improved the dynamic model loading system's memory usage, performance, and stability
If that's what I'm thinking it is, that could be two big, very long-running issue sorted out there. (I'm assuming, OK hoping, it's the absurd performance drop soon as 1 player enters the screen plus the frequent times when it stops drawing weapons) |

Decided to finally pick up the Civ V DLC, though still overpriced as I don't play the scenarios.
If you're buying the game it's cheaper to buy the near-complete GOTY version. If you have the game and want all the DLC, there's semi-hidden mini bundles that knock a further 15% off in total. Korea+wonders, Denmark+explorer and Cradle. Polynesia, Spain and Babylon don't seem to have bundles. |
