i agree with some of what he said. but i don't agree with me having to pay for patches to a fulty game ( that is not complete because its bugged)
i can see someone buying a game..( 50-60$) the finding out is has major issues with it... trying to download the patch to fix it... then seeing on the screen ( you must pay 20$)..... now i can see a lawsuit for that situation and i can see it winning... why? we pay 50-60$ for a complete game.. its simple.. noone pays that cash for a game that dose not work the way it was intended to work.
right? |

Quote: | If you look at Gears of War or Assassin's Creed, they came out on console and they were great experiences - but the PC versions had additional aspects to them that also made them attractive, whether you owned the console version or not. The PC version was better. |
Did that inc the PC required to run it full bells & whistles?
"Quote: If you look at the BMW used to race around Monaco, it was a great experience but the Ferrari F1 car was better"
Like soooo bleedin' obvious! IF you HAVE MONEY to throw at it!!!
Consoles= "one-stop-shop", same game minus a 900 buck overhead for 'fancy graphics', which is the PC.
So you spend a thousand bucks on a new gaming rig and the future is playing PC games off a server because of piracy AND paying for patches (Disguised as additional game content) |
