Why is it unethical? Why do all games cost the same amount of money when their mass appeal and the development costs are nowhere near each other?

Part of the DLC thing is that these games cost a LOT more to produce now than they used to. The DLC is a way to offset that cost while still allowing the initial cost of entry to stay about the same. Sure, new games are now $60 instead of the old $50, but the cost to produce a AAA title has gone up by much more than

I picked up Witcher 1 for dirt cheap on steam awhile back (enhanced edition). Is that game still good or should I skip it and go to witcher 2 on PC instead?

The game you want then is EQ-Mac. That game is EQ1 + Kunark. Still a monthly fee, I think $13 a month?

Hrm. That might work. Her Iphone is currently paid by work, so not sure if they would pay for a non-voice data plan. No logical reason they would not, but logic and finance at large companies don't often intersect.

I am not parapalegic, and can still walk, but need a wheelchair for anything that has me upright for more than 10-20 minutes (arthritis in ankles, knees, hips, back, neck). This device isn't for me, since I see that it actually uses the legs themselves as support when standing.

my wife wants to replace her Iphone with an Ipad, and I find it pretty stupid that she can't. Let us put a phone plan on an ipad and use a bluetooth headset for the phone, or use it speakerphone.

Once you get archery maxed out, there isn't much that survives one shot with a bow either. Groups of three go down in three shots without any of them discovering me.

Has anyone here compared Camera+ to Camera Awesome? They seem to have mostly the same features, but Camera Awesome is free. I see one poster here saying they have tried both but are sticking with Camera+ because they are used to it, but I am the opposite and wondering if Camera+ is worth spending $1 over what camera

Ugh, bought that game on steam for $10 and not sure it was worth that. Level design was horrible with random pointless boxes all over the incredibly stale and barren environments. The very low polygon models were animated like puppets from Mr. Rogers neighborhood.

I am so sick of hearing about spy party. It is vaporware until it is purchaseable and finished. So being tagged as the maker of spy party is pointless.

I agree with this 100%

The kinect has hardware and software that does voice decoding automatically. So all bioware had to do was connect with the api and compare text strings. Your headset just gives an analog audio stream. Huge difference.

Life expectancy says a lot more about infant mortality rates than it does for how long your average person who makes it to adulthood lives. Many people in that time frame lived well into their 80s.

Ooh, pc... This game would be a good candidate for 3Dvision since the UI isn't much of a part of gameplay.

Wow, so $500 million allows you to drop an airtight case? Sure that is a lot of money, but why isn't anyone doing jailtime for this? $500 million is not going to change how google does business. Putting people behind bars might.

And others like stealing or shooting guns in crowded subways, but we don't let them do that either.

Ditto. I have had two different wireless mice and both of them after about a year started chewing through batteries insanely fast (about a battery per week).

Me too. I immediately looked at the time, and am going to leave the office right now for some fast food fish. Probably burger king because they are closest.

You tasted the eyedrops? And by that you are saying you can't imagine how bad they would feel in your eye? Do me a favor, go get some visene, then put a few drops on your tongue. Let me know how good that tastes and update the article. There is no correlation between what something feels like in the eye vs on the
