I could very easily end up buying this, but I've enjoyed doing everything that preview just showed me for the last 225 hours in Skyrim. My initial impression is it looks like Skyrim in a Wow or Fable skin.
And yes, I read that the same guy that did Morrowind and Oblivion designed it, but you'd think he'd want to _try_ to do something a little bit different? As a result, this game might have done better if it was launched in a year, instead of 2 months behind Skyrim.
Ok, well that's good to know. Don't know why Penny Arcade didn't mention that at the end, that would really make it better for the company since they had no fault in this.
1) get the game 3 days early, then it stops working until you buy the real game. It's EA, so that's 'supposed' to be a smooth transition, but I bet it get's f'd up
2) 20% off DLC. Break out your calculator ... unless you will spend more than $125 in DLC, you will not break even
3) fifa web what? I never used the old version
4) The 'dark mark' of EA on your gamertag so you can look a fool to your friends and strangers alike.
How exactly did you get 2 free cases as an amazon preorder? Amazon's pre-order was the Broderick detective suit and a $15 credit, no cases.
I sold the Broderick suit on eBay for $10, and I"ll get the R* pass for $10 so it works out great for me.
I'm guessing you bought the DLC codes on eBay for a pretty penny and are now upset that 2 weeks later they're $4 each - because I'll say it again - amazon did not offer cases as a pre-order bonus.

Microsoft Flight is free as a bird on Feb. 29
Feb 6th 2012 7:22PM (Joystiq)Nobody's got a gun to your head. The core game is free and I'm sure you can spend a ton of time playing it for FREE.
If you like it, buy the DLC, if not, then don't.
When you put out a free game with free DLC and figure out how to earn a living doing it, please spread the word.
