Letting your customer know what you offer and giving them an opportunity that they hadn't thought of is hardly preying. There are people out there who dont put their head down to avoid eye contact with salespeople and actually want help. Generally, businesses want to create value, not 'prey', because when a customer…

Agreed. God forbid a company organize my favorite hobby, give you anything for trades at all, and try to help people that don't spend every waking minute flaming on the internet. Sad that most hardcore gamers are so socially awkward that saying "No, thank you" to a one line sales offer sends them into a torch and…

Actually, smart businesses do. Its called preemptive adaptation. Smart businesses change while rigid ones fail.

Dude - relax. Its their job, and its smart. You obviously aren't the uneducated consumer they're targeting, so feel proud and deal with it. Plenty of middle aged moms and dads will say "Oh...that's that other game he mentioned a while back..." And start to ask about preorders and why they should do it. So many people…

No, that is a misconception. Pizza is quite Italian. American-style pizza is american. But the Base idea remains the same, created in italy (based from possibly Roman and Greek influences) and was brought by Italian immigrants.

you guys are all taking this shit way too seriously.

if you're a weeb.

I don't even play the Sims, but why are you being such a dick? The only point to Sims sequels is adding features that weren't possible last time. I don't think people are being ridiculous by suggesting the removal of staple features is a dangerous concept.

Wow. How petty. You don't belong writing. I saw this and got disgusted.

disqus shits on kinja.

Titanfall...Halo....come on dude. Been playing BF since 1942, and I almost choked when you called BF4 polished.

What? I loved that game. It was like playing a GTA that wasn't a 100-hour punchline about my own country. Love both, but it was a nice break.

lol. If by "Real Gamer" you mean "guy with xbox/ps4 who looooves shooters" and buys like every next gen game, that's me too, but it doesn't matter. I'm just not dumb enough to pretend that the DS/3DS haven't been retardedly successful. Besides, what "Real Gamer" wants three consoles that do exactly the same shit?…

cept dat ridiculously successful oine of handhelds making money hand-over-fist.
