Aug 1st 2007 8:54PM (Joystiq Xbox)So you're willing to get in line and pay that price like all the other sheep and we should be quite because of it? Nahhhh. Too high = too high.
We didn't like exorbitant taxes either, so we did something about it.
@ Rest:
In game advertising is obnoxious and very rarely ever warranted. Realism? Every single vehicle in R6:V is a dodge and you call that realism? An Axe billboard shoved down your throat during a cutscene where you're about to rescue hostages isn't over-the-top?
FN3 was some of the most over the top disgusting pandering to advertising I've ever seen. Your trainer is Burger King's mascot? WTF?!?!?! It had the opposite effect on me when I saw that. I boycotted BK for a year just because they think they're going to insult me and my intelligence like that.
Give me a break people, the advertising is already out of control and they have JUST started doing it.
I play game for escapism, NOT to be dragged kicking and screaming back into reality by some goddamn marketer. Is that so much to ask?
It's to offset the cost of games? Then why are my prices for system and games higher than ever?
What next? "This kill streak brought to you by Pizza Hut! Make every kill a 'Tombstone', kill!"
