| I am so freaking super pissed off at the Warden Keep DLC, which against every fiber in my being I purchased thinking "what the hell it's only $7 bucks" for what Bioware described as a "base of operation" for your party. In reality it was 40 minutes of gameplay, a fancy armor, 2 useless merchants and a freaking chest that should have been in the game to begin with.
Base of operation my ass, the keep is closed off for good, there's no way to interact with all your characters like in the camp site and the site is so far off that it makes no sense to ever go back there unless you're headed to Denerim.
DLC is the freaking anti-christ of gaming, we need to stop supporting these greedy fuckers and support expansion packs which offer much more for ones money, like in the old days. I learned my lesson will never buy another DLC for as long as I own a PC.
*edit*
I forgot the worst part of this whole DLC debacle, if you are not logged in to the EA/BIOWARE site, you can not play the game from the last saved game, that means no internet, no game. This is straight up bullshit if you own a laptop. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | I almost signed the petition until I realize why even bother, it's time to find another hobby, the gaming industry is getting greedier and greedier and couldn't really give a shit about their customer or the community that supports their business. I'll buy the occassional game and play it, but no more obssessing over silly little bullshit, there are way too many more important things to worry about than this. Fuck Activision and Infinity Ward, may they rise to the top so they can fall that much harder. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Hey here's an idea PC gamers, dont buy the game. Wait a year and buy it for $10 when it comes out on steam or the other downloading services. Just stay away from all the hype, ignore the press releases, the trailers and every other brainwashing bullshit that's out there and wait a year. The game will still be there waiting and it will still be just as good. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Hard Disk Space: 23.8 GB + 1 GB Swap File? WTF are they doing, the 360 DVD holds less than 9GB and has a 20GB HD, all of a sudden the games needs 24GB of storage to run properly on a PC? I was slightly interested in this game when it first came out for the consoles, but not interested enough in going out and purchasing a 360 or PS3. Now it's too late, I have zero interest in paying full price for a console port. When it comes out on Steam for $5 I'll buy it. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Nvidia and ATI should start looking into collaborating better. Intel have been kicking both companies asses for a while now, and that's with the crappiest of crappiest video graphic chips available to consumers. If Intel is able to pull an Okey-doke like they did with the Core 2 duo but for graphic cards, it is going to be a sad day for both ATI and Nvidia. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | MS is going to sell a copy of Win7 on every new PC that will be made from the day it's released till the next upgrade, yet they still charge for their OS like it's a rare commodity. $50-$70 should be the cost for people wanting to upgrade or buy a full install. XP would have been history a long time ago if this was the case. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | A game machine that will have the possibility to continue selling even when games will no longer be available, hence the reason why they are saying the 360 has many more years ahead of it. I think that's were Sony went wrong, they should have concentrated on the gaming aspect of their console, and then worry about the multimedia aspect after the PS3 established itself as a great gaming console.

| | The 360 does have a lot of life left in it, it will all depend on how MS markets itself. I think if they take advantage of the social web experience (twitter, myspace, facebook, skype) and make a new slimmer Xbox 360 with emphasis on casual use and max web experience they would sell well.

| | No, a fair compromise is for the assholes to trust their paying customers and put in the LAN support like it was originally intended. Pirates will figure a way to hack the game and pirate the shit out of it anyways, so why punish your customers for the actions of a few? Flag this | Edit this post |

| | $300 for a video card or $300 for a PS3 or Xbox Elite? Normally this would be a no brainer for me. I would go with the video card upgrade, but since money is tight, a console would make more sense during these shitty economics times. Flag this | Edit this post |

| What the hell is the big deal with DX11, it was the same bullshit with DX10 and as far as I know it hasn't made a single impact on any games that has been truly revolutionary.
Yeah!!! Bring on DX11....yeah bring it on...oh..what? What's that you say? 2-3 years before we can see a DX11 game? Really...but I just paid $600 for a DX11 card. Oh well I guess I'll just be a nuisance till then. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Microsoft is really setting themselves up nicely for a home entertainment system for the living room. Add Natal to the mix and the 360 will become the next itouch but for the living room. It will all depend on how MS markets all this together into a nice package. Flag this | Edit this post |

| I wonder out of those 5300 people that signed the petition, how many are actually going to buy the game or download the torrent version.
It disgust me to see people groveling to a game developer, when it's the developers who should be wanting to please the customers. If they don't want to provide a game to the PC community then fuckem, who needs them. There's more than enough gaming companies that have earned the support from PC gamers, spread the word and spend your time and energies on them. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | I agree, PC gaming has always been cheaper than console, except for the cost of the hardware, but now I think PC gaming is far more economical than ever. For $30 dollars a PC gamer can download 10 games from Steam. But people still complain about the end of PC gaming. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | As much as everyone hate pirates, we have them to thank for download services like Steam, Impulse and Direct2drive. Some of the game packages deals are just insane, and I think they satisfy the urge of game collectors, that just like to own games without ever playing them. Flag this | Edit this post |
