Title: Re:Eveyrone collect yourselfs before reading! Post by: BTs_FahQ2 on November 19, 2003, 09:56:02 pm Oh it's for real, and I am sad to say, a smart decision. Software gaming companies would rather support console gaming due to piracy. They can actually estimate and ensure the true sales of the product and the amount of income that will result of it. Most computer games go way under expectation because of the copy and burn logic.
It is just another direct result of piracy. Sooner or later these gaming machines will be better than computers anyways. If you haven't noticed, with the advent of network gaming for these devices there is really no need to make computer games anymore. They would like to seperate the price of the gaming console and the high market gaming tower. This ensures much better sales for the masses and not just those who can afford high end machines. It also controls the amount of diversity the games have to be programmed for. So begins the era of the non fun personal computer, enter the era of the just work machine.

The only piracy-free console at present is the GameCube, and that's because Nintendo went with the custom-manufactured mini DVDs specifically to prevent ripping.

But then I realize we will get the game a year after they get it, so whatever. All hail AA and RvS. |
