| Feel kind of bad for Dust 514 with as good as this is looking, but I'm sure they're happy they're staying in the console ecosystem for now. Considering all the rumors of Sony buying out CCP because of Dust 514, this probably puts that to rest, because this game is obviously going to be successful. |

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress)
That's got to be the dumbest criticism I've seen about a game company. TF2 and CS have been worked on by Valve longer than they were mods, and the people who created those were all given really nice jobs. The horror...
They're acquired properties. Rockstar doesn't claim they created the GTA franchise, they accurately attributed creation to the people that made it(Rockstar North, formerly DMA) in their GTA5 press release. What you're saying is like Valve claiming they created Action Quake 2 because Gooseman worked for Valve |

It's much closer to the original DotA than LoL. You can kill your own creeps, terrain elevation affects visibility, you can destroy trees to create new paths through the jungle, etc. LoL is more casual.
LoL also doesn't charge real money for items(according to the article summary, thats it sounds like they're doing), has tighter character templates, has less item variability(there are many more items in DOTA2 as far as I can tell, but this isn't necessarily a good thing or a bad thing), and is graphically more accessible(though the recent update visually darkens the mood a bit like DOTA2) |

y'know, it'd make sense if they integrated silverlight as well.
What? Somebody gonna file antitrust?
Considering that the Metro framework IS Silverlight, I don't think it will be a problem.
What this is is a way for the Metro side of W8, which the browser doesn't support plugins, to have some type of competitive edge |

Actually, I never even made it that far to find out all that stuff. As far as I was concerned the story just seemed extremely generic and failed to hook me at all. Which I found really dissappointing because I really like RA Salvatores stuff.
What is this I don't even
Salvatore is extremely generic by trade. The only person worse than Salvatore is Kevin J Anderson. |

Heavy fighters, light fighters? Doh this is NOT the world of tanks, it is planes lol. A good pilot in a light fighter will own a heavy. Manuverability is tantamount in a plane fight.
You can see these guys are clueless when it comes to planes. I will pass on this pay-to-win game.
Maybe you didn't watch the whole video or play the alpha? There is a reason for heavier planes. |

It's pathetic they still only have one shitty gamemode. I really doubt they are gonna add more at this point.
They have stated other game modes are slated for release this year. |

Say what you will about Asheron's Call and Everquest, but at least in that era there was a clear distinction between the games.
Fixed. I hate revisionist history.
Yher cause is DAOC totally the originator here, "revisionist", how about disscussing the games that really did provide wows fingerprint?
WoW is very much a polished and dumbed down DAoC, particularly the combat system and battleground system. At that point in time, DAoC was really on its own as a game, as it was completely different than other offerings like Anarchy Online, EQ, etc(who were all unique in their own right).

It plays like an odd combination of Split Second and Burnout Revenge, but isn't as good as either one. While the game's certainly not bad, I'd wait for a sale.
Made by BugBear, who made FlatOut(which, imho, is better than Burnout) |

I'd love to see EA bought out by just about anyone, as it would be very difficult for them to become any shittier without haemorrhaging the majority of their customer base (which I would also consider a 'win').
My ultimate fantasy? Valve buys out EA. They've got the money. They've got the clout. They've got the vision.
It makes no sense for them to buy EA. They can't manage a company with the scope and size of EA without completely changing how they do business. Now, buying Maxis and Westwood IPs would be very nice. Buying DICE and adding the Valve polish and QA to the raw, but great, games DICE generally puts out would also be very nice. |

“It comes down to choice,” Xbox Live’s UK product manager Pav Bhardwaj told MCV.
“The customer has the choice of going to retail on day one if they really want to buy a particular title, or to wait a couple of months and buy it full price from the Xbox Live marketplace.
Err, it comes down to not pissing off your retail partners, really. Sony doesn't particularly care about this, and they'll benefit from it more |

Lol, AMD pissing on Linux users again eh? They finally manage to get drivers that aren't either incompetently built, jokingly poor, or nearly impossible to get installed.
Then they get what 2 years worth of decent drivers out and it's time to drop 4870 support from catalyst? Perhaps they forgot many folks use Linux to get more life out of older hardware, and many will now look to their competitor as a solution. Not like they have been all that much better.
The funny part in the article is the assumption that Windows machines will be treated the same way, Phoronix never ceases to amaze, as highly technical as they are, they always sound like 12 year old fanboys.
It's called keeping with the times. You can get a 5 series+ for under $100. Sure for desktops, but not lappies. 
I don't expect them to keep releasing drivers for my Radeon 9800pro Mobility, either. |
