I get confused by those two Myth* games too. Heheh! Is this one any good? isn't this 'once-canceled' Gods & Heroes game? or is it yet another game to get confused with |

This is terrible news for PC gaming, because of the impression it leaves. I'd say it's terrible news for Crytek and/or EA more than PC gamers. Everybody knows that Crysis 2 was gonna get pirated anyway. The absence of this leak wouldn't have changed that. However, what this leak suggests is that either Crytek or EA have poor security and this hurts their reputation. The leak most likely occurred within Crytek, given the included DRM master keys and editor. EA's impression of them has become far less favorable. actually i think this leak happened by an external beta tester.. i highly doubt it's an inside job. and if it was a result of a hack then i'd imagine we also get source code for the game. |

$5 for 3 days is more appropriate. you want 72 hours of GAMEPLAY for $5? keep dreaming. only like 1% of all games on the market right now are that long. |

I think this is a horrible idea. You are paying money to play a fucking demo! This will give a precedent to dev to stop making proper demos and force everybody pay money for this. If devs will adopt this and stop releasing demos then people will have even more reason to pirate since they'll have no other choice to try a game. |

i'm in the closed beta and i played during their Dec28 stress test... I don't know wtf they've been doing all this time but the game hasn't progressed since the last time i played that beta under flagship studios. all they changed was translate it into korean. and now this korean-to-english translation is just horrendous. i felt more hassle trying to read quest instructions than play the typical korean-grindfest mmorpg. |

SWTOR will be the last major failure for a long time (Rift Planes of Telara only marginally less so as a 50 million dollar failure). dc universe online will be a rather average game and i suspect will ultimately fail as $/month game. as a micro-transaction type game it will have a decent following.
Cutter wrote on Dec 8, 2010, 17:14: So far it looks like GW2 is the only thing on track to really innovate the genre, if not it'll fail too. The whole genre needs a reboot. It's gone way too far off track. It was us old school PnP/MUDders who created this damn genre so I know what I speak. vindicus is an innovative game. |

wouldnt that be nice yes, space captain, your dumbshit opinion is indeed an objective fact |

Just remember. Everquest at it's peak only had 900,000 subscribers, and it was considered successful, and UO didn't even come close to that. No MMO will ever duplicate what WoW has done, and I don't expect any to.
If an MMO reaches a couple hundred thousand subscribers and they do better than break even it's considered a success. if you think WoW is the only big game, look at http://users.telenet.be/mmodata/Charts/PCU-1.png |

There's nothing special about WoW beyond it's adoption by the drooling masses who don't actually play games. you are very wrong. almost no MMO is on par in quality to WoW. it's accessible, it runs on any hardware, it's on mac and pc. all these things contribute to the quality of a product. WoW has great quests, gameplay mechanics, story, etc etc etc. you should drop your idiotic elitist attitude and see the game for what it is. just becuase a game is pretty or can run on every possible platform doesn't make it a good game. there's so much more to it. |

Regarding your Twitter headaches, in addition to breaking your feed, quiet a lot of Smartphones were also crippled. And it seems like Twitter (at least temporary) resolved this problem. Pocketnow.com article To me that sounds like twitter is now checking user-agent string, and if it's one of those phones, they would still allow Basic Authentication. Maybe as a stop-gap measure you can fake user-agent to be the same as one of those phones and go back to using basic authentication and have a big more time to properly implement OAuth method? |

Out of the 'blue' i just googled your name and i found this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_blogging#1994.E2.80.932001
Other forms of journals kept online also existed. A notable example was game programmer John Carmack's widely read journal, published via the finger protocol. Some of the very earliest bloggers, like Steve Gibson of sCary's Quakeholio (now Shacknews) and Stephen Heaslip of Blue's News (still running since 1995 with online archives back to July 1996), evolved from the Quake scene and Carmack's .plan updates. I'm very proud that I've been reading this site since virtually the very begining, ~1995-6. And i'm very grateful and happy that Blue is still running it pretty much the way it was back then.
Thank you for all the effort you put into it. |
