THANK YOU! FUCKING THANK-YOU!
Somebody has some basic common sense in this thread *hugs*

If only it were you... since you don't seem to understand that the term "extra" is fairly meaningless in this case.
Once again... you see it as a big difference that content is available online day 1 then the disc?
If I were to say release Uncharted 3... with the online mode as an "extra download" day 1... am i really giving people an extra?
|
But it's totally cool if Resident Evil 5 does it later than day 1, and asks money for it right?
You guys and your weird psychology. You guys will be totally fine if the people who bought it new didn't get it for free, but everyone had to pay for it.

Nope. If it's 1 day later it's still wrong. Basically it's wrong if A) it's obvious it could of been included with as much as a minor delay or... B) it's a feature that was previously standard. With this game BOTH qualfies. I'd say about 3 months is what i'd consider copastetic. Pay or not... it's wrong. Which you know... has been mentioned many many times but you keep ignoring it to keep up your bullshit strawman arguments to avoid the point that your arguement makes no sense. |
2 extra maps added to an initial 8? I don't see how that's standard. And why do a minor delay, when you could simply do it online, for no cost to the majority of customers, and those customers being the ones dedicated to EA, and the ones EA cares about the most.

At this point i have to call you out for being intentionally intellectually dishonest. Everythings been spelled out pretty clearly in my positions and you keep pretending they're stuff they aren't... or like here... just completly ignoring the entire post.
Your also ignoring the fact that the used game market HELPS the industry and doesn't hurt it. Used markets HELP new markets, not hurt them because they make the risks of buying products less, get general interest in products up and in general gives people who are "one and done" a reason to buy something that would otherwise sit on their shelves for eternity.
|
considering the fact that video game players are generally not one and done, I thnik it is safe to say you are the one being intellectually dishonest by bringing up irrelevant points.

Except you no.... the people who TRADE GAMES IN.
How do you think those used 55 dollar games get their the same week the game releases.
A) Someone beats the game and trades it in.
B) Somebody buys the game, thinks it's shit... and trades it in.
In both cases... the fact that they could sell the game back and recoup a decent amount of their money most certainty factored in on their original purchase.
You think the guy who buys a game first week, beats it and trades it in is going to buy a new game at 60 dollars if he isn't going to get as much back?
Or that somebody who gets burned by bad games that they can't get quite as much money for are going to keep buying new games and as many new games? Or are they going to cut back... both because of the added risk, and less cash... and focus only on certain games they know they're going to like and do things like rent games more... or god forbid pirate.
