Like blond /blonde.

I don't know if it's price-gouging so much as it is another bajillion-dollar AAA title that makes you jump through a half-dozen hoops before you can even boot up the game proper. Whether it's registering with the publisher's identity / rewards service, day one patches or day one DLC, it seems more and more difficult to just play your new $60 game.

If there's one nice thing to be said about Nintendo's Internet phobia, it's that next to none of their games make you do this crap.

But I guess I'm part of the problem. Sigh. I'm taking off March 6 to play the hell out of ME3 and buy all of the e-things. ALL OF THEM.

nobel prize rite?

I just hope the Bullseye makes it out of all this. Losing that gun would be tragic.

@JIAGPOS Magicka!

@trickybuz93 Could simply be that more PC players have it. BFBC2 has been dirt cheap on Steam and elsewhere for the last several weeks.

Okay, this is encouraging stuff. And apologies for the redundancy / borderline illiteracy. It was late!

So I'm one of the dorks bringing down the average, having bought the game and played it a mere three (!) hours.

My problem: I'm freaked out by the proposition of fighting a monster for 15 or 20 minutes without knowing how much health it has left. A lot of people don't seem to object to this, obviously, so I'm wondering: do the tougher monsters somehow telegraphy how much health they've got left, or is it just a non-issue for most people.
