The next-gen consoles may actually be a problem for PCs. If Sony can make there current gen hack proof then surely Nintendo and Microsoft (well maybe not them) will learn how to add adequate protection too.
If piracy is eliminated on the consoles then I imagine more studios would jump away from PCs.
At the moment it's nearly a level playing field with 2 of the 3 big consoles and both handhelds having piracy problems too. |

Crysis didn't pander at all and look what happened to it..
Don't forget that if crysis had looked like a normal game it would have struggled to reach an average 80% review.
Couple that with the huge system reqs and a well deserved reputation for needing a beast of a PC and really it's sales are not that surprissing. |

Guess their aiming this at people who bought lifetime subscriptions to LOTRO or *snigger* hellgate.
For that price I'd want at least a box containing a small radioactive cloud which I could use to mutate a co-worker. |

| I definatly would want to see a demo of this - I hated all the inventory management in DS1 and 2. I seemed to spend more time in the inventory window moving stuff around then actually playing the game. |

I imagine it would be far cheaper for the companies to get a government administered certificate then for the companies to all pay for ESA.
For their point of view their saving money - just costing taxpayers more. |

I took my 3 kids to see Speed Racer the other night and all 3 of them loved. I certainly enjoyed it a lot more then your average movie aimed at kids (last few we saw included Garfield 2 and Enchanted - they both made me want to gouge out my eyeballs).
Even my very girly 7 year old who still likes Barbie movies enjoyed it.
If you've got kids I'd definatly recommend it. If you're a fan it's also probably worth a look - I doubt the race sequences would work on a TV. |

What policy issues?
Not releasing the same game year after year just with updated stats...oh wait.
Not turning consumers away from PC gaming with dodgy DRM setups...erm hang on.
Paying your workers for the work they do...oh just a sec.
Trying to promote a healthy market place by not buying ever single competetor and developer you can...honestly I'll get something in a min.
Not stagnating the market by turning at least 25% of all PC games shelf space into just room for expansion packs for 1 game...erm help!
Seriously exactly who do EA expect to agree with their policies???? |

I kinda liked the mech bit - these are the people who did shogo after all.
As for the recharging healthbar and curvy hud well to be honest they both suck. |

Some additional options to increase graphical quality would be great for those of us with modern machines. Erm I have no idea what your running but my q6600 PC with a 8800GT still drops a LOT in the major cities. |

so why the fuck are you saying it doesn't work in an open city environment without having even played it? Because I'm smart enough to marry burnout's gameplay and an open city enviroment in my mind and know it's not a very good idea.
Strangely I've never tried pushing a 4 inch nail up my nose but I know that's not for me either.

Hmm this thread has been bugging me and I think it's purely the idea of burnout in an open enviroment that is the problem. Seriously with no shadow of a doubt I LOVE burnout 1 and 2; I even bought them both on two different consoles (not at the same time).
Burnout Dominator leaves me completely cold for some reason on both PS2 and PSP - it might be the inclusion of two many American muscles cars.
With paradise now promising an "open" world I think I'll skip it and play the earlier ones instead.
BTW to the people who think that open city with no pedestrians is fun - seriously what would you rather play, Test Drive Unlimited or GTA.
If you have a city everyone will want to interact with that city and therefore it's denizens (case in point freelancer - I would have loved to get more of a feel for the basses/planets rather then what amounted to the worst menu system in history).
When you remove the people from a city what are really left with is a race track designed by 3 year olds. "Your guess is as good as mine where we're going - little tommy drew this section of earth."
Basically if they want a racer they should build one - if they want a city roamer then burnout does NOT fit. I find test drive unlimited very bland and it suffers from the massive problem the recent NFS games have; namely a huge dose of filler. These open world games may sould great on paper but in reality the openess is only to make the player drive for a long time between races thereby massively increasing the gametime.
EDIT: Can't you just imagine Jack Thompson on this btw? "Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury this game from it's very name wishes to BURN OUT PARADISE. 'Tis the work of the devil and should be banned forthwith.
