News Comments > EVE Online TV and Comic Plans; $149.99 CE
11. Re: EVE Online TV and Comic Plans; $149.99 CE Apr 28, 2013, 21:38 Umbragen
 

I doubt the game grows much, if at all. Every time I've logged in over the years the numbers are about the same or even lower - low to mid 40K's are highs, low 30K's are more likely. (32K as I'm typing this) Yeah, they don't charge for "Expansions", but calling the biannual updates expansions is being generous. And unless you've been in the game forever (and ever) you'll never catch up and you're mostly just fodder for the big boys.

Whether Warren Spector had anything to do with Thief: The Dark Project as it was eventually released is a matter of some debate. At this point however, I prefer to believe he had 'fuck all' to do with it.

Maybe she should take to her husband first; ya know, the arms dealer. He could probably do something about reducing real guns.

Trying to think of someone whose opinion I give less of a shit about...

Richard Garriott, maybe.

I just don't understand how you take one of the biggest most sought after IPs in multimedia (TV, comics, and now the incredible adventure game) and make something this half assed and uninspired. It's just irresponsible and it's going to hurt the brand more than it helps, improves upon it, or even cashes in on it.

This is all AMC's fuckup, it's based solely on IP they have control over. I'm sure Kirkman gets a piece of whatever pittance this game may make, I don't think he could control it or stop it.

Verizon hints at 1GB. AT&T promises 75-100Mb. Time Warner is expanding to 335Mbps.

Never mentioned: The fact they all come with ~ 100 Gig caps.

Our government: Nodding furiously at how great this is for the consumer.

I look so forward to google stealing their business...




...and hiding it in the Caymans.

Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition for Windows is available as a direct download from Beamdog, with no client install necessary.

And if you don't think the improvements they've made are worth the $20, don't buy the game. Damn whiners.

As bad as G4 could be, it still wasn't near the worst channel on my current cable lineup.

The problem isn't that The Secret World is worth the subscription price, it's that it's only worth the subscription price for one maybe two months. I like the game, even with its awkward combat mechanics, I'm just not willing to pay the entry fee.

When I can pickup the client for a reasonable price, I'll play it for a month or two; I liked the beta. I doubt I'll subscribe for longer tho - there just isn't enough content.
