I used to be cynical and jaded like you ...

It probably would involve resetting your wifi settings as well, I'm afraid. Keeping that sort of data on a memory stick would be utterly intrusive, seeing as there are people out there with 10+ digital games and countless memory cards to store them on. It's not much of a problem initially, but if you're someone who…

Let's not talk about that particular game.

Fantastic game and art direction. It's amazing what they accomplished in that gen ... makes you think about what they could do now.

Don't worry. We're getting there.

He's not implying that Bethesda is ditching mod communities. I think he's saying that there'll be a split in the number of users that use Nexus.

But it's not. Look at Valve. Why are they still making games for the PC if it's such a waste of money? The fact of the matter is, of all the extraneous variables that could influence a game's sales, only two truly matter: marketing, and of course, the quality of the game. If a legitimately great game doesn't sell…

If you actually checked the topic more thoroughly, you'll find that I have contributed to the topic being discussed. Also, you should not be so careless with grammar in your attempts to debate with others. Failing to demonstrate a mastery of your own language makes you look lazy and incompetent.

While I'm willing to concede that your point may apply to certain game genres, the whole 'map pack' ideology doesn't really apply to Elder Scrolls or Mario games. The gameplay changes meaningfully from game to game, unlike CoD ... which provides hardly any incentives at all for critically-minded gamers who feel that…

Learn the difference between "your" and "you're". Seriously.

...this is a gaming blog. Of course they're going to report on it. They wouldn't be doing their job if they weren't.

They could just put the friggin' game manual on the disk.

That's it? Only the numpad keys have an LCD screen?

So what, everyone who plans on responding to an article should be completely or partially in favor of what the article is promoting? This is a gaming blog, dude - you're going to get comments from all sides on here.
