Thanks Brendan, for bringing this topic into the light. I personally think spending extra money should make you feel special, as a fan of the game. A discount coupon? C'mon. We deserve more than that. Considering all the advertising you get when millions of fans around the world talk about your game on almost every front, you publishers should at least give us gamers a t-shirt,a mug, a life-size poster & an accessory to brag about (just random choices, we deserve more than these) .
Ignore them. Nothing what the woman said could bring me to verbally abuse her. It's just a point-of-view. I can't understand what the problem might be with a 'skip combat button'. I admit it wouldn't be clever to add it to an action/shooter game, but what about RPGs? You don't need to battle every NPC in the game to enjoy some games. And not to forget, she's one of the many responsible for many good games that BioWare has made. Have some respect.
Why is the PC version not being released along with the console counterparts? I really don't get it... How much difference does it make (in terms of money) by releasing a version later or earlier? Are they afraid of piracy?
@zenstrata You're right. This capitalist policy of the developers is ruining the games AND the gamers. No matter how much they earn on a game, they still want more. @dman123_1 Your argument is incorrect. You're confusing the NEED for money with the WANT for money. Know the difference. Microsoft didn't need money when it made Halo 3 X360 exclusive, it WANTED money. They cancelled the PC version not because there were LOSSES, but because there were LESS PROFITS. Same goes for Gears Of War 2 & 3. And now these MMO games. For most of them, unlike NFS World, you have to pay to play. How do you explain those? You think the developers don't cover their invested money by only selling the games? Or that the games won't run on any servers except theirs? Its a question of greed, and where to stop with it. @100proofsoco Damn right man, damn right! A very good point.
Mass Effect 3, Prototype 2, Assassin's Creed III (finally!!!!), GR: Future Soldier.... the list goes on & on. And I'm also waiting for these 'PC' games: God Of War series, Uncharted series, InFamous series, NFS Pro Street, Shadow Of The Colossus, Gears Of War 2 & 3, Devil May Cry Series except 3 & 4, Naruto Shippuden, the WHOLE Dragon Ball Z series and especially HALO 3!!!!! Please GameSpot., do anything and everything you can to get these games ported to PC. Not all of us can afford to buy a new gaming system when we feel like it... :(
@XxCRAFTYxX The game looks nice, but I won't give "indie developer and PC gaming empowerment" a second thought without seeing: 1.) How great Hawken costs and 2.) A single player indie game with a good plot, characters, gameplay, similar graphics and an optional multiplayer mode, at a rational price. I'm sorry, but multiplayer alone doesn't do it for me.
