Nope, im not going to buy it. I have not bought a console since the PSX, and it will stay that way even more if they add internet constraint.
And I also know a lot of gamers that have been doing it the same way.
But you are right, there are enough idiots out there, that would even buy a radioactive turd, if it came with enough bling bling.
I have given up on waiting for BIS to come back to their senses and do a real ArmA 2 successor.
