In terms of being a pure PC game, Black Ops was the closest that the entire series has been for years. Full dedicated server support, good amount of options and customizability, full Steamworks integration, and more.

Proof that gaming industry has become a business, all about making money and profits at the cost of skipping certain steps in the process--rushing out games, and thus we the gamers suffer because of.

It's also proof that CEOs/PMs are clueless about programming, and the overall value of a bug-free app.

If you don't have the budget to do a game good, then don't do it. Don't do a half-ass job, rush it out, lie/announce it as a full-done golden job, and have us the gamers/testers report bugs for you and have overall bad experience.

Ever heard the expression "Haste makes waste." ? You probably have, but you don't care, right? You POS companies.

*what I see*

Look at all the stuff we're not including in your $60 purchase! Isn't it exciting to know how much content we still have for you to buy?

Uhmm didn't homefront already do this? WTF do people think everything COD does is so revolutionary when they dont innovate in the slightest

There's a supposed leak of multiplayer features, including new perks, and people that are serious hardcore CoD players are ecstatic that they're really finally innovating and thinking hard at how to change it.

I didn't notice much huge but hardly looked. I think the perk system, when done well, is the best thing they're doing. When done well.

Haven't played any of the Treyarch games...

In other words, the broadband cap may have less to do with managing congestion on Comcast's data network than with making over-the-top video services like Netflix and Hulu unattractive for heavy television users who are the most lucrative customers for Comcast's paid video services.

Change the highlighted "may have" to "obviously has" and we have the whole reason for usage caps.

Honestly, since Comcast has instituted the usage meter on their website there hasn't been a month that I didn't exceed the 250gb limit, yet I have yet to have been shut off or even warned. But given the psychological effect usage caps and metered billing have on people (as alluded to in this very well-written editorial) there's no doubt in my mind that many people have scaled back their usage or resisted cutting the cord out of fear. Applied as either a strong-arm tactic or a scare tactic, given the reality of current consumer bandwidth usage trends and general bandwidth availability, usage caps are despicably unethical in my opinion.

I've never had Comcast before, but from what I have heard, and this sounds really conspiracy theory-ish, is that Comcast only enforces the caps on people who have internet only, and not those with television and internet. Essentially, Comcast figures that if you have internet and no television service you're probably pirating your television, so those users are the only ones they enforce it on.

It's basically just a sniper porn game with few redeeming qualities.

OMG YES! It sounds like it's going to become quite easy to build your own test chamber with this new addon. I'm sure everyone is buzzing with ideas, it's gonna be fun!

Let's see if this manages to ever get released... something about this makes me worried that it may happen to have the same fate as Project Offset, being bought out and then scrapped.

If they can, then valve could. Now THAT I'd like to see, valve buying out EA.

This game looks great. I think I'll pick it up this weekend. Hooray for old-school dungeon crawlers! \o/

BTW, has the patch gone out on Steam yet? Mine didn't patch when I started it. Steam updated and I restarted Steam, but still no patch to Grimrock.

I'm on level 5 and I've found 2 bows and a crossbow. I think the 2nd bow I found was on level 5 though, and I think the crossbow was in a secret area.
