I agree. I'm pro-PC and run a GTX 770 in SLI mode (but I love my PS4), yet even I think the PC looks a bit muddy. Too grey for my liking.

Seems like the fees have gone up in recent years or am I imagining it?

Yeah, but it's less likely in public at least.

I wouldn't blame him.

Groudon was always better in Gen III anyway so nothing's changed there.

Nope. Would have made more sense if you'd said "will never touch".

Economies of scale, my friend. You hit the nail on the head. These budget meal YouTube channels and TV shows always brag about the cost of making good quality meals for a fraction of the price at your local restaurant. They say things like "1tbsp rosemary = 5p, 200g chicken breast = £1.60" and so on, but fail to…

Thank you. I appreciate the support. People can call me stupid all they like. I'm a community councillor for a party that everyone stereotypes as a bunch of weed smoking hippies, so I can take it.

Bad analogy. Stocks are not a product; stocks are the firm You can't get a refund from stocks because you are the business - there's no one to actually get a refund from.

At what point did I say the game had to be played extensively before being returned? A game is a longer-term investment than music or a movie so there would be nothing unreasonable about developers providing a short demo (say, an hour trial) to the consumer. If you walk into a cinema, watch the first twenty minutes of…

I do all of the above - especially "Let's Play" videos - but, as I've answered several times now, a demo is by far the best way in which one can decide whether the game is worth buying or not. I've bought plenty of games where I've researched the ass of them and still not liked them. The fact that plenty of people…

I've already answered this but, basically, thorough research will always be inferior to a (easily provided) demo of the game. No amount of research can tell you whether you'll like it or not. The statutory rights here in the UK state that you can return a good for any reason, providing it isn't broke or in less than…

UK. I know businesses can get away with a lot more over with you guys, but over here the consumer has much more power. We have statutory rights which are written into law that no individual store policies can override. They like to try of course, saying things like "No returns after 28 days" but that's total nonsense…

I would probably exclude discounted games from returns as it's already been reduced to a very reasonable price. If they make that clear in the sale Ts&Cs then it's all good. That's a genuine reason for a refund but who would you get it from haha?

Oh , and as I previously suggested to someone else, make devs create mandatory demos. That way, everyone is given the option to sample the game before buying. Then, even if they complain, there's no grounds for return. Whether you tried the demo or not is your problem. Hardly a difficult thing to implement considering…

Good reviews are not a guarantee of liking the game in the same way that bad ones are not necessarily an indicator that you'll hate a game. And even if I like the look of a game by looking at a "Let's Play" video, which some people don't do because it might ruin it for them, it still isn't a guarantee of liking it. As…

I have worked in the food industry. A cafe in a supermarket. It was hell. I know there are some people who try to pull it after finishing, and those people would never get a refund from us. However, I know there were also plenty of people who wanted their money back after one bite or without even touching it because…

I'm not disputing that. I'm not suggesting that someone who watched a whole movie or played through a whole game should be entitled to a refund. Obviously they enjoyed it enough to play through till the end so they shouldn't be entitled to a refund, so I agree with you. As someone who went to watch Hulk (the god awful…

It's hard to feel persecuted by a group of people that you find pathetic. As the owner of several different consoles and a gaming PC, I just think fanboyism and company loyalty is a joke, especially when modern capitalism is practically designed to shit on loyal consumers. It's outrageous how consumers are treated, so…

Don't tell me how the world does and doesn't work. That's a fucking stupid analogy. A meal is a consumable product, i.e. used once and it's done with. A game is a long-term product that is expected to provide utility to the buyer of that product for many years.
