You can do this with any Bink files in any game.
I thought this was common knowledge for years. Used it way back in RvS days. |

I love how a large group of people seem to be "OK" with this. It's people like these that are helping kill PC gaming.
Stop thinking these horrible ports are OK! Developers will think PC users don't give a shit about good ports and will only continue to take the easy way out. |

$120 bucks worth of 5 x DLC for only $50 is good. Yay, someone actually has sense and did the math! If you are into bf3 and were intending on getting all the dlc's then this a FANTASTIC deal, all the fluff on top is just icing on the cake.
People just see the EA name and automatically think they are going to get shafted, which honestly is the case most of the time. Here they are actually putting together a good package that saves you money. Nevermind the fact that the map packs are stupidly overpriced to begin with.
So tell me how this is a "FANTASTIC deal"? |

Valve changed their ToS just before Crysis 2 came out. Dragon Age Origins was 'grandfathered' in so it and all other games prior to Crisis 2 were unaffected. |

Not sure if it has been posted yet but:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/5151273122
The "hacking" ("compromising" is probably a better word, since no real "hacking" is going on) being seen in D3 is no different than what World of Warcraft players have been seeing for five years or so. The sad thing is, if no one bought game currency (gold, credits, whatever) from these third-party companies, then essentially no account compromises would be occurring. Compromises not done by gold selling companies are very rare indeed. They strip one player to sell to another, because it's much more efficient than "farming" gold. They still farm some of course, but they do it purely with compromised accounts.
Unfortunately, these compromisers make a lot of money off of the practice (because players buy gold) and so they have a lot of resources to use to try to get your password from you directly, or through your computer. Some of their poorly translated phishing e-mails may be laughable, but their trojans, infected websites, etc. are not funny at all.
If you have the physical or mobile authenticator (both of which major banks use and charge $30+ for) the chances of you being compromised are very, very small. I've personally examined the MSInfo files of nearly all of the handful of WoW players who have actually been compromised through an authenticator, and the sheer number of backdoor programs and other malware on their systems has been mind boggling. Probably not coincidentally, these same people were also running a disturbing number of file-sharing and download programs, including ones which are commonly known to not be safe.
Again, compromising game accounts is a big business in some countries. They have people on their payroll who spread false rumors of "hacked through my authenticator" just to try to discourage people from using them. We charge $6.50 for the physical authenticator, because that's exactly what it costs us to make them. The mobile one is free because we don't have to pay a factory to build them. Use them, and enjoy your gaming without someone mucking with your stuff. SOURCE: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/5149542352?page=1#6 |

Ugg. Like GTA4, I'll wait for the hack that bypasses this. Yeah really. More needless social network crap.
Why do companies always think we want this shit? Oh I know why! They can use it as an excuse for not allowing us to run our own servers in FPS games and take away offline single player because of DRM. |

Diablo 3 Launches without AMD Eyefinity / NVIDIA Surround Support. |

Jesus Christ people need to stop getting all sandy vag over games not supporting multi monitors.
Hardly anyone does it. You knew this when you bought the hardware. Learn to deal with it.
Then again this is coming from a website that gives games a "certified" ranking when the game renders at 16:9 on a 16:10 display so I guess this is to be expected. |

I just love all the hype for midnight launches but us in EST can WOW GET OUR COPY AT MIDNIGHT... but have to wait another 3 hours to play.
That kind of kills the entire point of a midnight launch. |
