I...... ewwww :(

What is it sonny? I'm busy listening music from my Sony Walkman cassete player!

I will evacuate to Speakup. If the new commenting system affect Speakup then I'm done.

THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH HER HAIR!!!!

Simple, just like Everquest and other long running MMOs they cater well to their user base. after a decade most problems and bugs are fixed and straightened and the community is strong. It's the same as hardcore CS players keep playing CS because it feels right for them.

The Raid focus on the action and it sell well.

Bleh, just call it draw on the plot side.

Oh yeah I read your whole post. It's just that many people are willing to pay for Beta (heck, people willing to pay $100+ for CS:GO beta keys) even when we can play the game without paying anything. It's their own decision, 13 y/o or not. That's their own money.

Oh yes, the hardcore fans, it's like they're quite obsessed. Oh well, it's their money.

Oh well, supply and demand. But still, people are willing to pay more than $50 for a beta.....

No worries, that's the reaction I expect from many fans though. Right now it's a new revival and I think the action will be more focused on the west too.

It feels like the wave of annihilation like the one in Crisis on infinite Earth. Sooner or later we will be enveloped.

I dunno, since I start noticing the similarity of the plot with the movie "The Raid" I start to shy away from this movie.

Let them pay. I'm patient enough to wait for proper launch and bugs cleaned up.

Dude, this is an on profit company we're talking about. Of course they will try to monetize it. This is still optional because there are two ways to enter beta, either pay or register and hoping to get lucky. Also it's your own fault for not doing any research at the games you're interested with (Tribes and Dust).

People pay $100+ for CS:GO beta? what?

Nope, they drop CS:GO cross play, not because of controller issue (PS3 owner will be allowed to use M+K) but because PS3 game updates need to be screened first, (also uploaders have to pay update cost per update). Valve is well known to update often.

Thank you, I can only prmote you, so here's an internet high five.

Oh well, welcome to Kotaku :p

I can imagine one of the Kotaku journalist is ready with his/her ink and quill while Kotaku interns are busy scanning on any comment about Mass Effect extended ending.
