    Don't step away; how's the beta!? I wouldn't go near the original launch due to obvious reasons, but I'm keenly interested in what folks think on the revamp. Anything to share here, or is there a thread that explains things a bit better?

    To be fair, who's job is it to communicate the benefits of this DRM to the consumer? DRM = digital rights management. By definition this means removing rights that you would normally have in a medium. It's not our job to blindly imagine what a company could possibly do in the future in...

    A "strawman" is the name of a logical fallacy where you make up a position of someone else and then argue with it. In this case your posts and questions indicate you feel people like DRM on PC, but suddenly turn hypocrite on the XBox. This is not the case, and hence your question/reasoning is...

    I'll take a stab at this. Simple answer: because we don't live in bubbles and DRM is not the only thing in existence. There's other factors involved, and that is why we don't mind it. You're question is also flawed (strawman) because it attacks something that is not even there. Long...

    Upcoming Skill and Trait Changes

    Wondered where you went. Come back to us! We have cookies! (and sky pirates). New living story stuff is actually starting to get pretty good.

    Upcoming Skill and Trait Changes

    Completely unconfirmed, but if you're the type of person to believe leaks, these look pretty legit (though not totally polished): http://pastebin.com/2rrFg9pS

    Hey I'll be the first to admit I will buy an xbox if it has enough games that interest me. I'll buy Activision too for something that interests me enough. "Enough" in both of these instances is a VERY high threshold, though, because I expect both scenarios will make the experience not quite as...

    Thank you for the clarification on buying games. I may be thinking of sales or something similar, not sure why I had that in my head. "Second, Steam can only offer that pricing because they spent years being hated for have the MOST STRICT DRM in the market." I'm not sure how one of these...

    Upcoming Skill and Trait Changes

    Looks like we got a big one coming June 25. Coupled with the reward system changes (~end of summer), this should be interesting. https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/upcoming-skill-and-trait-changes/ Oh and of course, there'll be sky pirates.

    I read it as X-Bone. I'm not trying to be snide, but I feel it's bad/annoying branding. No one says "Nintendo Wii" or "Sony Playstation" on a normal basis, and I refuse to call it "The One"...which is what I'm guessing MS wants people to settle on. I'm not sure why it bothers me...maybe it's...

    Slightly off-topic, but I think Kinect is really going to bite them. People are already comparing the price of the Xbone to PS4 and pointing out the huge difference; it's a big win for Sony. Pretty similar hardware other than the faster RAM. But what about next Christmas? The one after...

    So let me get this straight, XionTawa. You're actually comparing XBox to Steam? Okay, let's see how that stacks up: Steam does not charge you $60/year to buy a game or use Netflix or any of the other inane things Microsoft does...then blast you with ads. Steam offers MUCH better pricing...

    Just a heads up for anyone looking - Blazeridge Steppes is ludicrously good for this. I was there the other day and saw no less than 13(!) on the map at the same time, couldn't keep up with how many there were.

    Yeah Dec 31 is definitely not official...it was the same thing for the normal PS4.

    I have seen rumor mills for both Nov 26 and October 29. From what I understand, parts are already shipping. Obviously speculation take with a grain of salt. One thing I will say, though, is that amid current atmosphere and how people felt about E3...if the PS3 shipped a month early it would...

    Well they are only up when they pop, but I'd recommend a mid-level zone like Bloodtide Coast. That way you don't have 5,000,000 peopple sniping them before you get there.

    Controversial Topic: EA Wins E3!

    As to your comment on Rare Kendrik, you just have to remember that Rare is not Rare. It's just a name that was bought, and not the same people that used to make awesome games back in the day. So for example while I loved me some Killer Instinct, and I hope this one is done well, I'm thinking...

    Controversial Topic: EA Wins E3!

    +1 on support for attitude. I buy retro/HD remakes out of principle. I do think the currently announced launch line-up for PS4 is a bit weak, but personally I feel people should look to the past instead of current to decide. Looking only at the launch line-up is a bit short-sighted IMO, and...
