i barely enjoy games so i rarely buy them. most are pure crap that you spend 20 minutes playing and realize you have an addiction to games that need fixed. go outside!

There are worse and more expensive addictions to have trust me.;)

Yeah, I am just getting sick of companies crying about this stuff when plenty of legit gamers still buy and enjoy their games on PC.

They aren't rich enough, they need to be richer.

So they must feed on even the poorest of people who can't afford the $60 a game plus $15+$15+$15...etc.. for DLC.

They inspire creativity rather than kill it.

But yeah I'd say I have an addiction to games as well. I'm always trying to find something to play and convince myself I have time to play them when in reality I shouldn't.

Do you think this article below I've posted would explain one of the reasons today's games are so "shitty"?

http://au.games.ign.com/articles/120/1200005p1.html

cause I can definitely agree with you on that one, but there are a few gems of hope out there and I hope Battlefield 3 is definitely one of those shining lights. I've been let down before aka Crytek and the early leak from it's disgruntled employee for it's PC version said a lot to me in a way that the game isn't going to be a Crysis game but instead another sheep in the herd.

Agreed the story for BF isn't close to what MW is, but some enjoy it I suppose.

If it has SP I play it. But then I am a bit older and come from the time when games were ONLY SP and that was it.
Heck I have all the CoD's back to 2 and well I pretty much buy them FOR the SP.

I am looking forward to the SP in BF3 and even more so the Co-op(My first real online gaming was playing Co-op in Ghost Recon)

After seeing the Thunder Run and Operation Faultline trailers it looks like its gonna be pretty good. It really will be the real showcase of the engine because like most MP games they have to make sacrifices somewhere to keep it smooth online.

Am I gonna risk the torrent to play the SP now? NOPE not a chance I will play it the day it comes out(You know the MP is gonna be a total zoo anyway) Then I am gonna play some Co-op with friends and get me some unlocks.
THEN I am gonna play the bejeebus outta MP.:rockout:

If I hear any QQ about how the SP isn't great, I honestly won't care one bit. I don't even think it should have SP, if I want to watch a Michael Bay film I will go watch one, and if I don't have one I will play MW SP(yeah right)....
