| Seece said: Rubbish. Unless you're a collector like me, then there is really NO reason to keep a single player experience game like Bioshock, and that deserves all the sales it can get. Just face facts, gaming is a luxury. You have no right to moan about not being able to afford top whack ..... |
I'm primarly talking about the online pass buddy. But I see your point about single player games. THAT might actually need a pass. But atleast in the beginning of the launch of a single player game, when people fork over 60$ (I imagine they intend to keep thier investment) and don't like the game... sell it, trade it or whatever... then the used market gives the developers a second chance to actually make up for their failure to satisfy that new game buyer's purchase.
But your point does make sense much later on when the game is much cheaper. On the other hand... games usually sell the most in their launch so.. I think I mostly "win". And Bioshock sold pretty well... 2.6 million (not to mention what it sold on PS3)... I also wish it would've sold more but I think that's great considering this gens hunger for MP games instead of single player games... it's trend.
All gaming systems, consoles/PC, have thier perks... why fight over preferences? I like Coke and you like Pepsi, that's it, let's not fight over which toy we like best cause that's what they are. Is someone's preference in a toy important or is the relationship between you and your neighbor more important? Answer is obvious, but THE most important thing is your relationship with God almighty. God Bless you in Jesus's name.
I can communicate without talking... I can send a loved one money without actually sending money... and I can commit theft without the product disappearing, the point of theft is the point of theft not one of it's possible symptoms which is the product dissappearing. The thief wants to gain something without paying for it, that's the point of theft, the thief doesn't have to care or anybody else has to care if the product dissappears. The product dissappearing is just a possible symptom of theft. Gifts are sacrfices, in order to give a gift, it has to be a genuine sacrfice/gift, meaning a copy of the game isn't still in your PC. Piracy is theft and/or being a culprit of theft.
