However saying Xbox play disc while your in the kitchen is kinda convenient, but I agree they should have incorporated Child of eden controls where you just push forward to select

Rumor: Warner Bros. joining 'online pass' camp with Mortal Kombat

"Movies have a longer shelf life. People still buy Gone With The Wind. Every time there is a new format, movies get remade and bought again. The actors and crews have unions to ensure they don't get fired immediately after a film is made. Companies like Netflix pay the studios an annual fee for the ability to stream online. Physical movie rentals are dying. Blockbuster is going out of business."

Ok In this aspect then because I have Gamefly $14 a month shouldn't I have access to the online portion of a game I am paying for a service which allows me the consumer to rent a game for an extended period of time for a fee. Shouldn't game pubs, and devs incorporate an additional monthly fee that Gamefly would be shipped with an extended online pass lets say 2 weeks.

Therefore everybody's happy people get their money, gamers play online.

Ok check. You have a family with multiple profiles or live in a house with multiple friends heres the kick in the nuts that online pass has to be bought by each person(profile) on that console.

So the master profile (for instance Dad) redeems code on his profile and the son wants to play later that day on his profile he cant without spending another 10 dollars to play online with his friends so one copy of the game in a single household has to pay for another "server fee" on the original copy

Bullshit

Ok while in time I may be accepting of this 10 dollar project I think it is garbage. The cost of gaming has become super expensive. Take into account the following

Internet-40-60 a month
Xbox Live-70 a year or if you get a deal 40+
The game its self brand new 60 which I cant afford or as i do myself
Gamefly-14+ a month which they pay for the game

Now as a consumer to enjoy the game I have to spend another 10 to enjoy ALL the features (online play)

I don't have the biggest wallet in the world thus the reason I take advantage of the rental service and a 2 day pass isn't nearly enough to take advantage of the online feature with work and such or the achievement which I enjoy obtaining

Epic games makes quality games that it will gain a community and doesn't exploit gamers for its money and subpar game either does Activison with Call of Duty they make their additional money off the additional DLC and the community

I think it is a super shady for EA and other to do this and think they only hurt themselves by doing so because there is still a large community against these practices

@Drakkenfyre

Dude lets be honest what game is really out there that is new and innovative that doesn't take the art and design style of some other game

GH-Rock Band
Battlefield-COD
Bioshock-Metro 2033
etc etc

And since you know that the console versions didn't get the updates that the PC did I for one am more than excited for this release

LMFAO!!!! I hate GS for that reason. By the time I leave the store I feel like it was on a really bad date.

"are you interested in our game informer promotion?"

"no thanks I'll just us my dads name I really don't have the need to have the magazine sent twice to my house"

"well what about when you move out?"

"then I'll continue to use his name for discounts"

Plus I use joystiq for all my gaming news

Analyst ponders impact of MW2 'Stimulus Package' pricing and success

Apr 21st 2010 2:25PM (Joystiq)
BFBC2 FO LYFE!!!! lol anywhozzle I don't think any map pack is worth a 15 dollar price tag, they obviously made a killing off the intial sales of the game and should show the community appreciation for that and sell the map pack at 10 dollars or even 5 for that matter. I mean think back to GH for instance instead of being a awesome supplier of DLC like rock band has done for the past 3 years Activision ruins the name of GH by releasing a new game ever 6 months to a year and thus people loose interest quicker or even further than that the Tony Hawk series

I for one will not purchase this until the price is reasonable
