Or they would release a game that wasn’t quite right & the next year they would release a budget priced DLC disc that basically fixed everything, added new game modes and then did updates for free (and let players make maps & run private servers)? Ah, the old days...

Artificial scarcity. You could just sell shoes at a reasonable price in stores. OR you can hype them up as a limited exclusive, make people fight over them and jack the prices so high you can make the same amount of money while actually making far less product- and virtually guarantee you’ll move the whole run. 

Fuck, sometimes they’d release new content and you wouldn’t need to pay for it at all. Or like you’d get content for buying it at launch without needing to pay far out the ass for it.

Am I oversimplifying if I say the solution to this “problem” is it to just not fucking buy this shit*?

Back in myyyyyyy day, when devs wanted to get more of your money, they had to release more content!

And the equipment guys that have to clean all that shit up.

this is taking a dark turn.

If the radio broadcast simply avoided mentioning the score, you would swear the Skins are always winning by two TD’s.

REMEMBER THE PUDDLES!

Wait, this is a Tide ad again, isn’t it?

I guess Washington Mudskins is probably problematic, too.

Gotta feel for the groundskeepers after that - going to be a tough week for them.

Yeah, Larry Michael is a buffoonish shill for the organization. Shocking that someone so close to this team has a distorted view of reality.

Ouch...let me show you on the doll where that comment touched me.

Remembering it and being able to do something about it are two entirely different things.  I’m sure the 49ers are worried about the next meeting.

It’s not as dangerous in the mud! No one has any grip, you can’t launch off as hard, and the landing is soft. Rain football on a muddy field is fun for everyone.

Despite all this, Dan Snyder was still the most shriveled wiener in the locker room after the game.

The play by play guy who partners with Chris Cooley said that the 49ers looked like fools splashing around and celebrating on the field after the game and that the Redskins were going to remember it. The gang at Around the NFL thought that was pretty funny.

Isn’t this missing the best one?
