I strayed from Ubisoft games for the same reason as Keet. I would never support a company that screws over honest customers with draconian DRM. It's almost like I stopped buying Activision-published games because it's as stupid as fueling a train that's about to jump a gorge.

And Far Cry 2.... words cannot describe my hatred for that game.

Actually I love Ubisoft games... VERY few bugs in comparison to Activision games... now why is that? Could it be that Activision just wants the junk out the door as fast as possible, even to the point that it is a "Get it out and we will fix the bugs later" attitude. Ubisoft is more a "Let's finish the game before we release it" attitude.

Look at the Ubisoft FPS games like Rainbow Six Vegas 1 & 2, Splinter Cell Convictions, Assassins Creed 2... ALL FINISHED GAMES... I played through every one on launch day and barely found any bugs... Modern Warfare 2 on the other hand... OMFG... Armour Plated Banana Leaves lol.... The game was nowhere near debugged.

Keet, rent AC2... It's freakin awesome.

I'm sure the games are fine, I'm just not supporting them in any capacity because of their DRM. If your 'net is wonky for a day, you can't play the game you bought. I'm surprised they haven't gone back to StarForce because as we all know that was the *best* DRM ever (a.k.a. **** YOU FOR RUINING MY DVD-RW DRIVE YOU STUPID UBISOFT BASTARDS).

I'm wondering if MW is losing any numbers. Like rate of growth is low or dropping exceedingly fast.

MW2 got incredibly boring, incredibly fast. IMO, it's in big part due to the killstreaks and such. Back then, even with killstreaks, it felt like I had to still fight to get a good score.
But that's a diff argument.

Anyways, I still don't see how this guy can keep opening his ****ing mouth.
It's bullshit if he "wants to do more for the console community" or whatever. Revenue won't really do much, from what I see of their work. Our dlc was how expensive? And honestly, was it even worth that much to have a few old revamped maps and a few maps? I doubt he actuallys needs money to do anything. You can look at less popular titles(think of valve and their games again), and how they are working out fine.

While, yes, particularly they are only adding to the PC vers, patches are done all over tf2, and with only the PC in mind, they have literally shitloads added to the game as well as are very involved in the community with events etc.

He's under the impression that they are the best and everyone will hop on their dicks like it's nothing. If mw2 came with a subscript fee, most people would play it for awhile(if not leave it alone) and then never go back again. Like I first mentioned, the game gets boring after awhile. Also, If I have to pay a fee, then I'm going to just rent this mofo than buy it. Saves me money almost no matter what.
**** you kotick. I pray for your PR section, they deserve overtime just for your ass.
