<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yeah, i agree, sometimes gamers complaints is
borring, but they are gamers..</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Only french peoples could complaining more than a
gamer, lol (i know, i'm french).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I agree too with the fact, they have really
versatile opinions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>One day your the best, and another you the worst
poop en Earth. ;)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Don't be so rude, we have some rare "piece" who
actually make an effort to write correctly.</FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is paradoxal, that game studio don't really care to
linux Bins.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But if they don't have Linux Bins, the risk to a
sell failure is pretty high.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- CoD 4, Linux : Sucess</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Valve games, Linux : Sucess (depends of gameplay,
which is, after all, the logical way)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Crysis, not Linux : Game Crash 6 months
after realease.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Front line, not Linux : Game Crash 3 months after
release</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- EtQW, Linux : Game Crash for a bad
"cross-community" failure (That was not a bad idea, but gamers don't
like)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Crysis Wars, Linux : a try to "electrochocks" a
near dead community..</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But Linux make differents between a quick big
sells, and years played game.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And i think, the problem is on the market,
they have a reall deep space (9) between gamers
and Game Corp.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Game (ST) Enterprises listen sells board,
marketing analyses, financial craps, but forget to asks players...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Who have seen MoH:Airbone (pure trash), Crysis
(severals bugs), BF2142 (a reeloking sells as new game)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and mores can't denegate the marketing/commercial
role, who really don't care if the game is finish or not.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But i would said, that fault is not entirly on game
corps, because players buy this games...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why they should listen players, make good games
with more months,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>when they can release a "empty box" who's are big
money sells...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>How many person would choose quality over cash
?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>You just put some "good commercial" strategy to tv, community,
merchandising...</DIV>
<DIV>And you can sell a candy like "luxurious product" and make pretty huge
money.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It's a vicious circle... </DIV>
<DIV>Whe product shit because the sells are good.</DIV>
<DIV>We buying because we listen merchandising.</DIV>
<DIV>Merchandising grown and make people more lasy and stupid...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And the world will explode, with billions of "coach people" too lasy
to save it :)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>SO PLEASE BUY QUALITY, FOR YOU, FOR ME, FOR THE WORLD PLEASSSEEEEE
!!!!</DIV>
<DIV>STOP LISTEN MERCHANDISING, I BEGING YOU !!!!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Maybe i overReact, world would be fine, for begining in few days the
"Bretzel Man"</DIV>
<DIV>would not have anymore acces to red button...</DIV>
<DIV>It's already a good step to save the world :)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

don’t give a rats ass about PC multiplayer… they build these games to cater to

publishers stop catering to 14 year olds who buy a game so they can run
through the SP in two weeks then take it and trade it in for the next game
coming down the pipeline… the PC MP market will continue to be one dismal MP
game after another. It’s easy money and because their audience expects so
little form a game they don’t have to spend all the time required to develop a
good MP experience. The last game in the CoD series that was built
specifically for the PC was United Offensive. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
