Read it!

I once made a post title "The new age of gaming: it sucks"

and that generated quite a bit of hate... well I stand by it so haters.. screw you! ;)

BUT... this article here says what I ment to say a million times better, read it!

heres an exert of the article

"The competition has turned into combat, and we are starting to see the results. Instead of quality, we are getting quantity. Instead of gameplay, we are getting graphics. All balance has been thrown out the window, for what was once a friendly competition has turned into a war, and war requires money. The gaming companies have been provoked to such a state that all they see is their potential demise. They see the screaming opposition, and grow fearful. The healthy opposing fanbase has turned into a plague of spiteful warmongers."

CHAPteam



CHAPteam will be a group I can call upon to help me review a game that either doesnt have a server list or is not very active. Members will then either find and join a server together or use Hamachi to create a virtual lan server between us. I'm hoping to get a minimum of 6 players, but the more the merrier. Then we will discuss the game together and these opinions will be in the review :)

Contact me on youtube or leave a comment here on the blog if you wish to join. if you use youtube private messaging then give me a way to contact you, either xfire or msn.

If it wasnt for freeware....

I have all but sworn off commercial pc games...


Case 1: Terminator War of the machines:

My brother buys this, but he never plays online so he lets me install it to try online, The game is basically Battlefield with terminator in it, btw... I log in and... "Your cd key is already in use"... after contacting the developers I got no results and have never once played this game online...

Case 2: Unreal Tournament 2k4:

I've been playing this game for atleast a year, the mods are even better. however i eventually need space to install something else and uninstall this game... a few months later i miss the game and reinstall "Your Serial key has been blocked from playing online". After contacting support they say that I hacked the game and they blocked me themselves... I magically logged on with a hack while it was uninstalled off my harddisk... from this point on I never bought another Atari game again, and i do not intend to after an insult like that.

Case 3: Star Wars Battlefront

I'm a huge star wars geek and after hearing that Battlefront 3 was cancelled i felt guilty for never playing the first 2.. so i bought 1. installed played some single player and logged online.... "your cd key is not authorized to play online"

oh god not again... After 5 days of explaining that I definetly put in the serial key correctly.. yes i know they are all lowercase.. yes i know that 1 might look like an l but is actually a 1.... yes i did purchase it new and not used.... they basically said " oh sorry theres nothing we can do"

If it wasnt for freeware gaming i'd have sworn off pc gaming for good by now...


Btw new ep is practically finished jsut a little more editing to do when im not feeling lazy
