Since we're all still waiting for the fixes for kotor2, I'd say waiting isn;t always useful.

I do not have the money to buy any game. However this country has rather flexible piracy laws. (you won't find a person here who hasn't done that.) I downlaod a game, play it, and then decide if it is worth buying. In such, I have bought all the Halo games except 2 (bring it out for xp and i will. I will not be forced into Vista/7.) all Gears of War games, Settlers 6, BF2142... I do buy games, but only if they are worth the money. Same with films and music. It is no different than going to a store to listen to the cd before buying.

I've craved plenty, and i've gotten quite good at ignoring them. (In this country, it's a life-saver to be able to do so.)

Ops, sorry :(

Well I totally get your point and I feel the same way, sometimes. Standards goes up with the ages, and playing more games and seeing more movies gets you more experience. So yes, it do gets harder to have fun with the things, but its probobly more with one getting older, not that games, movies gets worse. Neither the world, nor you are uniform/never change.

And the thing with paying full price for anything. Its only if you crave anything and want it fast. Waiting for the price to go down, even if you dont have money-problem, is an alternative. You also then get time to read reviews, hear the critics, see all the response. And with games, you also see if the developers fix things or not, and if you get it late, it really is more a complete game, then trying to get the thing as fast as possible. Its a mind thing.

I happen to have standards. Something society these days appears to be utterly lacking. Am I an outsider? Very much so, for I have no interest in conforming to society's ridiculous rules and ideologies. I have never bothered with 'fitting in'. This has indeed earned me quite an incomprehendable number of insults and ridicule. I couldn't care less.

I have no problem with faulty work. However, I refuse to pay the full load for an unfinished game, especially when they refuse to admit and/or fix the faults. The game industry is becoming more and more like a Nigerian scam coalition. They charge us money for things that are hardly worth it, and then when you've got a problem with it and/or want a refund, they stick their heads in the sand and ignore you completely.

And it's she.

Well, mayby Lea dont like anything that mainstream like, or even what the critics like. Mayby he think its fun to criticize everyting and be a total outsider. If its good for you, its not good for Lea :P

Movies or games dont need to be a masterpiece to be good. Its faulty world we live in. So try to appreciate the faulty works we do.

Either movies these days are very bad or either I haven't recovered from the boredom I got during the exam times. I watched some movies in TV and almost all of them are so boring. First I watched "Clash of the Titans", it seems lack of both story and action. Then "Quatome of Solace" is worse since there ain't any action at all. (Almost fell asleep) I was hoping Rush Hour 2 will hit the spot but nope. What's happening to me?!!! :0

illogical Rant mode - on:
I'm sure Lea's comment about "The Dark Knight" is boring somehow effected my mentality. Damm you!!

illogical rant mode - off. :p

It's simply too late for Battlefront 3 now, they had their window to at the very least release a statement regarding the allegedly leaked gameplay footage and the closure of Free Radical, but it's gone now. If we do see Battlefront 3, it certainly won't be as popular or make as much money as it could have.

Back on topic, I become quite enraged by people that pull out in front you dangerously when your driving, and then proceed to drive really slow.

Yes, I expect a game worth the 80 euros (105 USD) i have to pay for it. Lets see.

Portal 2 was fun but over in about an hour, tops. 15 euros, maybe. 80? go to hell.
Crysis 2 had a teapot in my HUD. xD (seriously.) but then again it was the leaked beta.. xD And the full release.. It got a little boring at one point.
BF3/COD Well i've stated enough regarding my interest in present-day setting shooters.
SWTOR You've got to be bloody kidding me. I've got better things to do than listen to 8 year olds whine about cheaters and how awesome they themselves are whilst they pretend to be Revan_nr3678. I'm not going to pay monthly for the honour of wanting to strangle them.
Skyrim should be renamed to Glytchrim. It was a moderately amusing game, but they took the Fallout 3 engine from before they fixed all the bugs. I spend most of my time being forced to reload or use the console to manually rescript the gamefiles and force quests to proceed.(which you can't do on 360/ps3; goodbye 80 euros) Plus there is the ridiculous fact that there are no experience points. After about 15 quests you've got about 1m in money, and the only reason to do the quests is to stretch the game duration. The main quest lasted about 4 hours. The first patch came out even before the release (thank you skidrow!), the second messed things up dably, the third only fixed the messed up 2nd, and so far no original problems have been fixed.
The Witcher 2 I have no interest in a role playing game meant only for men. The whole point of an RPG is to be able to play a character you can identify with. Having to hack and mod the game just so you can play as a woman defeats the entire point.

LOTR:War In The North was fun, but the morons released an unfinished engine. Instead of using the GPU RAM, it uses the Pagefile to render. Meaning, after about 2 hours of playing, you've got your entire memory filled up to about 8-16gb and fps will drop to 1, because the pagefile only empties on a reboot after manually editing the registry. Still no fix released.
Anno 2070 Doesn't even run. The DRM is so heavy most virus scanners flatout see the game.exe as a trojan horse. Good game Ubish*t! This happened with From Dust, Anno 1404, Settlers 7... Ubisoft denies everything. Even after having had to refund 80% for From Dust when steam decided to help the customers. Ubi blames the antivirus programs. Yea, sure thing ubi.
Gears Of War 3 was worth every euro I paid for it. No nonsense, no glitches, long campaign.
RAGE didn't work properly. It had to reload the texture everytime you moved the mouse. After about 2 minutes this drives you insane. Still no fix released.
LA Noire was too boring.

Most Games might look good, but when you give it some time and thought, they end up being utterly dull.

I feel so sorry for you. Crysis 2,SWTOR, Portal 2, Battlefield 3. Mayby not best games ever, but good games. And it feels like its a ton of other games out there, that I just dont have time och money to play. The Witcher 2, Skyrim, Batman AC, Zelda SS,

Things that make me enraged: ...... 10min pass. Nothing really. Yeah, well seeing poor people in Africa on TV. More equality in the world thanks.

I just wanna play Doom 4 already.
Duke Nukem Forever was suck a disappointment, I thought. 12 years of waiting for this? It's not bad, but it's not innovative, either.

And yes, I played Duke Nukem 3D when I was 3. My dad just didn't know about it. :D

BF3, bah. I'm more interested in BF2143. (there were rumours about that). I care not for present-day setting shooters. I could just enlist if I wanted that.

SWBF3 I've given up on. It's been 7 years and we've not even had 1 official statement.

That requires years of practise, but it is convenient to be able to do so. (yes, I can. Did you expect any different? :p)

Oh yes the explosions and gunfire sounds woke me up, certainly. The rest put me back to sleep just as easily. :p

No, I didn't have doubts. It's still nice to have official confirmation, though. (Everyone who's seen the Doctor Who Christmas Special and the last episode of season 6 knows there was going to be a season 3. The references were too obvious. But all of us did hope we were going to get a crossover at one point. Moffat said No. :( )

Well, considering I just saw a Scooby Doo ep where Shaggy told everyone he was perfectly capable of walking as he was the most stable person on the planet when Velma warned him about a patch of ice, only to proceed and slip and crash into a lake... :p

Urrmm...I too embarassed to say that I still remember this cartoon and still remember that certain villain. My head is filled with whole kinds of garbage. I want Sherlock's Delete button!!

Oh for Prime's sake, It's one of the best superhero films ever! OK maybe to some the film MAY been bad but one thing it's not is boring! How could you have been sleeping during those action?! Those BOOOMS! And Bale's Batman voice?! Especially when he say, "I don't wear hockey pads!" & "Your penut butter sells foever!"? :p

Ofucase season 3 will be here. You had doubts? :p

And I'm pretty sure Shaggy captured ghosts (and put his friends to thier own trap) in some episodes though I can't remember the names. (My memory ain't THAT much of a junk. :p )
