| The best thing about this game besides the starting area of Tortuga was the character collision system and you had to move around other players rather than through them... |

That's basically the Achilles heel to that particular tree/skill. It's great for grinding but, unless the boss spawns tons of adds, it's a waste of a skill for boss encounter. |

My friend plays as the Psycho and it's fun to watch how his mechanics play out depending on the tree he's in. Not sure which skill tree it was, but he would constantly get in to the fight for your life mode and would lob sticks of dynamite until the timer hit zero and insta-gib those around him with the last stick to get second wind. The more people he took with him, the more health back and he was practically chaining this through the entire playthrough. It's interesting though since they have a skill which allows them to also take friendly fire so there is a little bit of coordination required.
For example, you don't really want to kill all the mobs while he is in fight for your life mode or he gets no benefit from it. The other being that you need to accept the fact that his death is part of the mechanic and to not worry with reviving him to get second wind unless all the mobs are already dead.
I'd play it but I'm not going to fork over $10 for a character and I definitely don't feel like giving Gearbox any money. |

I doubt WoW would ever implement a F2P system since they sell the shit out of what would be F2P items in the form of macrotransactions such as mounts and pets on top of a subscription. They're doing quite well with this.
Also, I believe with the way Blizzard is now a publicly traded company, it might scare off too many shareholders and would rather reap the benefits of the current model as opposed to the risk of losing those shareholders due to less dolla dolla bills. Then again, I'm no economist so I could just be talking out of my ass! |

Six hours isn't too bad but it depends on how well he is familiar with the game. It would put it in the same neighborhood as RE4 and 5 as far as speed run is concerned but if that's the time after your first or second play-through then it'll easily be one of the shortest RE games which is what I feared since you can only jam so much content in to a GBA cartridge...
I'll buy it but definitely waiting for a hefty sale... |

Sad thing is, you can probably convert it over the RMAH and make a huge chunk of change even after Blizz/Paypal take their cut. Even if you sold in bulk and it comes out to 10 cents per one million or w/e, that's still pretty damn amazing. You could probably get Jack Thompson to take it for you.
Paypal would likely freeze your account or some shit though anyway. |

Got Resident Evil 6 on the cheap from GMG and I have to say, it's probably the best one since RE3/CV (IMO) because it has certain throw-back elements which triggers my nostalgia of wadding through Raccoon City in a bunch of missions but on a much larger scale. The hit detection is top notch and to see bits and chunks fly off the zambies is pretty entertaining.
That said, it definitely suffers with a VERY annoying camera system at times and, although it embraces a more dark setting than 4 and 5, it still retains the Saturday-morning cartoon villain feeling as well as substituting survival-horror for the Michael Bay approach which doesn't really do anything for me. There are also way too many cave/wilderness levels and some of the enemy character designs range from terrifying to downright stupid too.
I wish they would reuse some of the old cast though rather than continue to reuse Chris and especially Leon. I'd love to see Barry or even Rebecca at least get some closure but I hear Claire is in Revelations so that's okay.
All in all, the replayability is what will make this worth the $23 price of admission and it makes me look forward to Revelations if I can catch it on sale. |

Cram wrote on May 8, 2013, 15:00: Without a rollback, the economy is broken. Forever. A full rollback would also haul in the RMAH since players could dupe their gold, buy a great item, and turn around to sell it on the RMAH for a really low price to capitalize on this exploit while it's still hot. It would beg to question whether Blizzard would be in a position to refund those purchases or simply remove the item and quote some bullshit line in their EULA as to why they can't issue a refund. In any case, it would be a disaster.
Like I said in another post, if this was just directly affecting in-game gold and not actual dollars, they would probably just do an entire rollback if they're capable of saving such details like how many gold a player has on X date.
They shut down auctions until closing off the exploit So for the first time it was actually a Diablo game. |

Yup, the economy is pretty much in full meltdown right now. Since it can affect the RMAH, I wouldn't be surprised if they did a rollback if possible to keep their golden cow from getting bruises and look bad. Trouble is, what would happen to the regular Joe who bought a legit item at an actual price since these shenanigans began. Would it go poof since it would be caught in the rollback net and lose the money he spent on it?
This would be easy fix if it was only gold but their RMAH is going to bite them in the ass because of this kind of shit. They were worried about the players fucking up the game's economy but in reality, they seem to be doing it more to themselves. |

That patch clocks in at a meaty 1.1GB.
Throw in the previous visual and AI patch and they are as large as the initial game itself upon release. |
