As a child, I watched the original Voltron, and loved it. My dad bought us (myself and 2 siblings) the toy and we loved it.
Seeing this come back made my eyes light up. Watching it and it's new story made my scream with joy. What an amazing revisit to the IP, and I am excited that they are doing a 2nd season!
So, the two extra copies of WoW that I bought last year at $5 a pop, will now come with every xpac if activated. I wonder where those game keys are....
After playing World of Warcraft for 10 years, I guess I never really wanted to admit to myself that the Warcraft universe really is mostly about racism and genocide. I was excited for this movie four years ago when they announced it, but now... eh I'll wait for it to be free on Netflix or Amazon Prime. This movie wasn't necessary, and I don't think anyone is excited for it.
I saw Huntsman last night (was a snorefest) and before it started, there was an ad for the Warcraft movie. I heard people in the theater asking what it was, and someone said "video game". That made me sad, because Orcs vs humans invented the RTS genre, and World of Warcraft was and maybe still is the largest-sub MMO on the planet. It's not just "a" video game. I guess not everyone can be a gamer like us. xD
That's 150,000 players who are getting to enjoy entertainment without paying for it. 150,000 x $15 = $2,250,000 a month in potentially lost revenue to Blizzard. It's piracy, no matter how much your heart bleeds for those people who want a different experience than what World of Warcraft currently offers. I'm surprised Blizzard isn't also filing a lawsuit for lost revenue.
The people that started this should be thankful that they're only being shut down.
I uh... um... gamespot.com ... er... totally choreographed matches with pre-determined results... I remember loving WWF when I was 10 years old, then I learned it was all staged... 'our predictions' ... I am trying not to be that internet troll asshole, but... stick to reporting on games, please... please! I just don't understand why a site like gamespot is reporting on WWE... I guess it is not my place to understand everything in the universe... I only clicked this because I saw boobs. *MAN*
Well, shit. I guess Dell wasn't expecting to need 3.0 USB ports... my Alienware Aurora R4 case (which I bought in October 2014) has four, USB 2.0 ports in the back, and three up top. *sigh* Why did I spend so much money on this supposedly awesome gaming case, when I have to play games with the side panel removed? Anyways, yeah, that 3.0 USB port requirement is what I don't have... *grumble*
I have 327 hours in Fallout 4 (I play the PC version). That's less than 20 cents per hour.
I bought the Season Pass when I picked up my physical copy (I wanted the poster) for $30. If I spend 30 hours in the new content, that's a dollar an hour. A movie in the theater costs $7-10 an hour. A decent dinner and a drink costs $20-$30 per hour.
I realize people are focused on the impact the $30 or $50 has on a person's wallet, but you have to consider that you're buying entertainment. Video games are some of the cheapest entertainment available. Even if you buy a $60 game, and play it for 10 hours, that's $6 an hour - still less than a movie in a theater, or a dinner.
AND I like that, once you buy it, you get any and all future DLC. I don't see giving a deadline of March 1st as strong-arming anyone. In fact, I see it as a very gracious warning that their price will go up, BECAUSE THEY UNDERVALUED what they plan to give the buyer.
My character is sitting at level 80, I've completed the main story and every side quest that I can find. I really want my DLC, so I'm excited that they FINALLY announced it.
