Piracy is an undeniable fact of PC gaming, true, just as it is also undeniable that there are plenty of games that make a lot of money on PC despite piracy, and despite the publishers actively working to make the PC gaming experience as bad as possible

and yet, RPS is reporting that another Ubisoft game (Ghost Recon: Future Soldier) was announced to not have a PC version today, using the same rationale...

it IS a kneejerk reaction. Ubisofts sales on PC have dropped 90% since they added always on DRM to their games, without a corresponding increase in console sales. They have been"fighting" piracy for years now and all it has done is send their sales down the crapper.

I'm exclusively PC. I refuse to pay $200 for a console to play games that will look much worse than they do on PC

i bought the Steam version and it ran out of the box... i may have been lucky. I hear most of the performance problems are CPU related, so maybe i was exempt from them because i have a quad core...

not that hard... it runs pretty well on my middle of the road system.

i was actually impressed when it said my name (Francisco) correctly...

Nokia Maps > Google Maps

The same thing could've been said about Nokia a couple of years ago... then they started to stagnate on the software side despite producing above average hardware... sound familiar?

True, but today a lot of it IS about specs... not to mention, they aren't really adding many new things on the software side either... Siri, notifications ripped off from Android and reminders... hardly enough to justify a 16 month development cycle

So, basically Apple is playing catch up with the Galaxy SII, which was released in April 2011...

meh, i think we all saw that one coming.

hope it's true, and that it also applies to the international version... if that is the case, i'll be buying one on release

5 out of the top ten Facebook markets (measured in number of hours spent per user) are in Latin America. Spotify is not available in Latin America.

hmmm... gotta start convincing my boss to get us one... would certainly impress clients...

i barely go beyond the list of most used apps and the search box anyway, so i don't see a problem with this.

That is not the same plane... the CASA 212 is a spanish made light cargo plane, similar in some ways to the Twin Otter.

there are a couple of inaccuracies in the article:

The writer's lame attempts at pretending to be a PC gamer are kind of sad...

i can smell Apple's fear of Android all the way here in South America...
