News Comments > WoW Drops More Subs

i am growing more convinced that Diablo 3 is being crafted to bring in those bored WOW subscribers. The D3 auction house screen even looks very much like the WOW auction house screen.

Another variation that we are "renting" a game from EA, rather than owning it. I wont be buying anything with an Origin account.

a fun game that deserves a sequel. Spiffier fire-fight graphics might be nice though.

Diablo 3 is being crafted for folks who love MMORPG's; Heck the game might even be fun for those folks.

At least there's Heroes 6, In beta now and it looks like it will be fun.

XP will stick around on corporate networks for 3 years more -- which is when MS will cut off security patch updates.

the introduction of real money micro transactions into Diablo is bound to be profitable for Blizzard, which is solely why they are doing it.

You have to admit, Blizzard is taking a gamble. The hardcore might be OK with lots of little micro-transactions in real $$, but others may balk.

that hi-speed university plan is bogus BS. Their website is filled with impressive double-speak.

Don't be surprised if the 3ds is completely discontinued and a new simpler non-3D design is introduced in Summer 2012.

i am disappointed the vita now has 256mg's of RAM. Lame of SONY to change the specs so late in the process.

"Nintendo will cut the price of the 3DS by 40 percent, less than six months after the product’s debut"

Wow -- that is apretty desperate price cut for something so new to market.

I hope Nintendo saved all those $$ that came in from their Wii revenue stream.

Take the last 2 RF games are take the best of out of those, and you have an A+ game. I wonder if THQ realizes that?

amazon will typically sell non-drm digital versions of games that require absolutely no "phone home" software. You run the amazon download client for downloading and that's it. You may have to wait many months for a particular game to appear though. A handy alternative to Steam imho if you are patient for releases.

the larger issue is that Netflix will follow up the July pricing change with an increase in the streaming cost plan, likely occuring well before December. I may dump netflix at that point and I've been using them almost since netflix launched.

I bought Risen 1 and it was a shadow of what Gothic 2 was unfortunately. Everything basically "worked" but the tiny island and surprisingly tedious major quests left me bored.

kinect sales certainly helped MS' bottomline at a time when gaming is in the midst of disappointing sales. now if they could just make some good games for it

at 250 bucks and with all the control pads and sticks you would want, it is a nice portable game device. I suspect it will not sell well though, what with ipads all of the rage.

love this game's sometimes dark and sometimes dryly humorous story-line. It really only that that keeps me playing. The action is fine but not the real draw of the game.

For all of the bombast-level PR at their launch, the current consoles were tragically underpowered.

For the 'streaming only' package, anything over 10 bucks and I would drop Netflix altogether.
