I always wondered why this wasn't implemented earlier. It couldn't have been that difficult.

My favourite game of all time is The Longest Journy (and it's follow up title), which are considered works of art in gaming. I have an XBOX360. I'm glad I don't fit into this guys idea. He might be right though. I haven't really noticed what's on offer on other platforms.

I enjoyed the first 2. Now that I've been alienated, I won't be enjoying diablo 3. My hard earned $$$ goes elsewhere.

@Meeerkat456 yeah, you're right. I wont meet them. it's not really threat, it was more of a joke. but whatever.

I really don't understand why people would get so upset? skipping action is optional...so why the angst? I think it's a great idea. Sometimes I skip dialogue, and sometimes I just want to get past a fight/action seqence to get on with it. I agree with her 100%. If I met these pricks, I wouldn't skip the action sequence with them! knobs

the number means nothing. See a six and then read 'why' its a six. it's usually because it's being compared to something else, or there are some tech glitches

I don't mind paying for extra content. It can be an empty feeling when you've just finished a game you enjoyed and there isn't anything new to discover. I agree that subscriptions are bad and paying for multiplayer content is crap. I'm fine with paying a small amount for extra levels in a game...as long as these levels weren't held back on purpose, but were developed because of positive feedback from the game.

I have to play multiplayer games, because my wife wants to play too. I'm the market for local co-ops. Resident evil 5, army of two, gears of war, Halo and the up and coming Hunted. They're perfect for us. If only Dragon age or Oblivion had a multiplayer option...
