Well Zephalephelah you clearly are not making sense, you list a bunch of speculation and then claimed them as facts. Well way to go, now I only have to debunk a couple things since you destroyed your own argument YOU HAVE NO FACTS, AND THAT WAS MY POINT.
It was never about the likilyhood of Valve charging (which I doubt would be a full retail charge right off the bat, that doesn't make business sense) your said price, you pulled this argument out of your ass. Its about you being a fucking drama queen about a subject that doesn't belong here.
I love how fanboism is common sense, Valve had been working on VAC and was not going to start paying royalties to a third party cheat programs, this is once again COMMON SENSE THEY WERE MAKING THEIR OWN ANTI-CHEATING TECHNOLOGY.
If you would care to look at my past posts I flame Valve considerabley, but you unfounded claims and speculation on the "big mean evil Valve who only lives to screw consumers" does not belong in a damn thread about COD.
It amazes me that your head doesn't implode, from reading your past posts which clearly show yourself as a enormous pessimist, you need to take a deep breath and realize Valve is just a developer making a game, nothing more nothing less. They are not the goddamn gestapo.
Please keep your boogeyman theories where they belong in the future.
