To be fair, this is more in line with raising game profitability vs shafting the little guy - obvious but true. Sure, it sucks - but the future will probably involve more networked authentication vs less. Computer gaming sucks now because piracy is rampant and has wrecked most of the gaming companies we appreciated in the past.
Companies build games for consoles because they make $$$ there, otherwise we'd see more for PCs. Unless game companies can ensure sales, computer games will continue to decline. Watch SC2 take off, then PC games might actually revive. Case in point, WoW was profitable because it WORKED. People stumped the cash (me included), can you say the same for 90% of the stuff in the archives? |

The PC gaming industry been destroying itself slowly but surely in the last decade.
This would simply be the logical followup. |

In reply to all those people who just can't stop defending Fallout 3: I see Fallout 3 like I see Apocalypse.
Which mean that I think that Fallout 3 is to Fallout what Apocalypse is to Xcom: a good average game by itself but a great failure when compared to the original. |

Really? Why do you think so?
IMHO all the games hosted on Abandonia have one thing in common: They run under DOS without Windows. And there's next to none among them which are bad. |

Yeah, how can DirectX be bad when it brings us SHINY graphics?
