[cod] Believe it or not?

I assume the release-a-year thing makes shareholders happy, and releasing
every christmas benefits from making games that they can hype to crazy
heights, but that people subsequently drop after a few months.

 

Not parting with your cash (and being vocal about your disappointment) is
the only way you *can* vote.

Even if you were to burn your copy before opening the box, you'd already
have made those shareholders happy (presumably the reason they don't do
demos anymore either).

Yeah, personally I'm putting my money where my mouth is.  I buy a lot of
games, but I have yet to buy anything past CoD: WaW and I haven't bought a
BF game since BF2.  If the MW3 or BF3 don't have dedicated and mod support,
I won't be buying them.

 

My measily $60 vote doesn't count for anything, but I still stick to my
guns.  If either of these games had a decent single player, I might consider
them.

considering cod:bo was even more successful than MW2 ... they've long moved
on from the GSP model (other than the preferred vendor model where they can
exercise their control).

 

Every time I hear PC gamers getting upset with the dedicated server scenario
... I just remember this screenshot:

Cracks me up every time.

 

 

PC players have demonstrated they have no influence and they'll never have
any street cred because they immediately buckled when MW2 came out.
