Don't worry guys. EA buying Bioware will have no effect on the company!

Honestly this the result of surrounding yourself with yes-men and ass-kissers for over a decade. I'm sure it's a situation like George Lucas, where no one has the balls to just look him in the eye and call him on his bullshit.

This guy has gone nuts. But so has our society, and the 50k pickaxe will probably sell during the first week.

Here is a shocking revelation: We all use our computers slightly differently! Holy fuck!

Anyway, did anyone whose been coming to sites like Blues since the 90's, ever think you'd see a time where id Software was in the state it is now? I sure as hell didn't. I never thought I'd see an id game that focused on consoles, had no mod support, no Linux client, and a piss poor excuse for multi-player. That last one really gets me because these guys invented deathmatch.

My prediction: This will also mark the end of id making their engines open source.

This was always a fun Quake 3 Arena type shooter. I'll have to give this new version try this weekend.

You guys missed my point. I wasn't talking about the game play having lack of direction. I'm fine with that. That's the point of the game.

My comment was about the actual development of the game. How many half-baked features still remain that they started, but never finished? That is the lack of direction I'm talking about.

Someone drank the cool aid. All Ron Paul is doing here is trying to get corporations to have even less accountability. Net Neutrality is a good thing, and this asshole is trying to destroy it. I'm not big on the idea of an internet where a private company can throttle users, or give preferential treatment on web traffic. End regulation, and that's what you'd get. A tiered internet, and another playground fro the corporations and the rich.

Not all federal regulations are bad.

Minecraft is an oddity, in that regard. So much potential, but a total lack of direction.

It does seem that the guys working on it now are a bit more serious about having a game plan, but Notch put the game in a state where it has a lot of half-baked ideas that never got fleshed out properly.

I really don't understand what people were expecting. It's fucking Diablo. It was always about a farming grind-fest. People complaining about the "end game" (who haven't beat inferno...) seem to really think that this should follow an MMO mold. It's DIABLO... I guess people forgot what the "a" in "arpg" stood for.

Back when Diablo 2 was fresh, I played it for mindless action (that "a" word again), and played stuff like Fallout or Baldur's Gate when I wanted something with some depth.

I'll bet right about now the guys currently working on it wish it wasn't based in Java.

PR doublespeak. "We have a few things we MAY announce soon."

What kind of nonsense is that? Either you have a few things you're going to announce, or you don't. Why the smokescreen?

How the mighty have fallen.

One thing I've learned from playing TF2 since 2007: At one point, some jack ass has referred to every single class as "the n00b class", without exception.

Here is the secret to TF2: They're all "noob classes", it's just that they all also have enough depth to make them all classes for vets as well.

Sums up conservative attitude in this country. Government assistance for the poor = horrible waste. Government assistance for his game company = great.

This should be a free upgrade for people that already bought it once.

I wonder if the textures will be lower res than the original Doom 3 textures to make it all run on the consoles. Oh well, I'm pretty much done and over with Id. Hope they enjoy their new console fan base. All 10 of them.
