    Zero Punctuation: Broken Age

    To be fair, ALL videos on The Escapist have been replaced with that ad! Did someone fool them into thinking it was April 1st already?

    Zero Punctuation: Broken Age

    Did nobody notice that before what you see now, there was actually a 4:40min video that started with the ZP-logo but no intro and which was pieced together from clips from some ZP-episodes and most other shows, just telling you that you could watch them on the escapist right at the end? Then...

    Zero Punctuation: Broken Age

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume that what you see in the video(s) he uploaded is supposed to be a metaphor for what the games feels like. Some kind of monstrosity that was pieced together from all their other games that somehow seems more like an advertisement for said games rather...

    Marketing Research Firm Challenges EA's "All Digital Future"

    Uhm, I was actually pointing out that steam-prices are NOT more expensive than retail. I fail to see the "retailer-conspiracy" with that... Sure, you could argue that they might "prevernt" them from lowering the price below retail, but that doesn't really explain the extremely high prices on...

    Marketing Research Firm Challenges EA's "All Digital Future"

    Maybe I'm confusing something, but usually the stuff on steam costs just as much as a retail-copy, sometimes even less, and that isn't even accounting for their "midweek madness"...

    Marketing Research Firm Challenges EA's "All Digital Future"

    I agree with you, except that EA is selling their shit on Origin for full retail prices... For example, they still have the nerve to charge the full price for ME3 and it's collector-editions as if it was just released, while it's already down by twenty bucks in stores...... The cheaper...

    Jimquisition: The Positive Side of Mass Effect 3's Ending Drama

    and here we go again... did anyone else notice that except for one person, everyone who posted on this page of the topic pretty much said the exact same thing? Folks listen, I for one agree, but this is becoming slightly ridiculous! Somehow I get the feeling that this is how it has to be...

    Jimquisition: The Positive Side of Mass Effect 3's Ending Drama

    Nice episode, I think Jim's right, so thanks for that! well, not really supprising though, considering it's Jim we're talking about :D On the whole ME3 ending discussion: I suppose this applies to both parties though... What I don't get is why everyone seems to think that the only...

    Mass Effect 3's Ending Was Intended To Polarize

    While I would agree that petitions like that seem stupid, is it really stupid to demand what you've been promised all along? especially if you payed for it? To be honest, from what I hear the idea for the ending doesn't sound all that bad.. I mean taking away all choice and turning it into...

    Mass Effect 3's Ending Was Intended To Polarize

    You are completely wrong! First off, in the meantime, they did raise $55,282.. Secondly, they are not doing it solely for the purpose of getting a new ending! They are mainly doing it for the kids, all of the money raised has already gone to Child's Play, even if the ending doesn't change...

    Mass Effect 3's Ending Was Intended To Polarize

    If they actually do something about it, I'd say they had this up their sleve all along! It would be kind of evil, but actually an interessting marketing idea. However, I'm not going to mind if we can all laugh about it in the end... Assuming they don't actually sell the new ending (if it...

    Mass Effect 3's Ending Was Intended To Polarize

    Okay folks, I'm new to these boards, so be nice to me :D I thought I'd share my thoughts on the topic... While I haven't played it through yet, there was no way all the ruckus about the ending could have gone by unnoticed. What I don't get in terms of certain arguments being brought up over...
