This would also offer the benefit that people who don't want to play in multiplayer mode don't have to pay for it. But, the gaming industry being who they are, they'd still demand too much for the singleplayer version.
Let's hope other areas won't adapt that idea. If you buy a used car you'll only be able to use 70% of its features while the other perfectly fine working ones are artificially locked, unless you pay a ransom to the car manufacturer.
Sounds like you should go back to AC trolling since reading comprehension doesn't seem to be your strong suit.
1. Wrong country. The dipshits who'll go on a holy crusade just because someone is burning a colored piece of cloth are one more continent to the right.
2. If Microsoft conforms someone else's standard's it's usually either by accident or because something to do so. Same with foreign laws in case of the Chinese. Even Internet Explorer doesn't fully conform to Microsoft's Javascript dialect, same with Microsoft's certified XML-based document format which even their office suite doesn't adhere to.Just like many law-abiding Chinese citizens still find found themselves in a labor camp within a matter of hours if someone didn't like the way they look or might have thought. And of course th current cases where women are abducted because small backwater towns need wives to survive and the state looks the other way or goes through the motions at best.
You're missing the point. Just as Microsoft doesn't give a shit about standards (even their own, as proven by MS Office) the Chinese government doesn't really give a shit about laws.
If you take a train wreck and strap a jet engine to its back to make it get to the destination faster it you shouldn't be surprised when it doesn't turn out to be the next concorde.
If he approached it the same way he did Seam (several different abstraction layers to the point where you're writing and digging through XML and annotations 50% of the time) the answer is simply "NO".
Seems like/. fucked up the formatting. It's 1EUR/GB and after 20 GB I don't pay any overage but the speed is reduced to GPRS until the end of the month.
Yes, one of the earlier "vampire detective" shows. A few years ago they stripped it down to the bare essentials, built a new show from it and called it Moonlight.
It doesn't hurt that Valve has realized the advantages of making your software accessible so you can buy up promising unusual indie projects based on it and more than recoup your initial costs. And that's coming from someone who usually prefers the "nuke it from orbit" type of games (Fallout 3, Crysis, Doom, UT,...).
They really should work on those promo videos. By the time the in-game content was shown I almost didn't give a fuck anymore because they had wasted so much time on fake snow.
The games don't seem bad, but if I want to pick up cars and slam them into some NPCs I just fire up Prototype and get something better looking.
Mostly I have to agree with you. You need a story and a basic premise which supports the choice of game types. Like turning the newer Fallout games into a FPS with close integration of RPG elements.
They'd probably be better off picking on Germany, where the government is once again trying to enact censorship laws which would allow them to block access to specified sites. Last time around they used the excuse of wanting this measure it to block access to child pornography content and this time they're hiding behind anti-terrorism doublespeak.

On second thought: Eastern Europe, United States, ... Same corrupt politician scumbags.
* One continent to the left. Freudian slip, since by other continent's standards even their "leftists" are considered far-right nutjobs.

"standards = laws"?
Sounds like someone will soon be transferred to clean radar dishes in Antarctica.
Maybe that's the route of the year of Linux on the desktop???
It's like Apple, but with more hardware to pick from.
Sounds more like Windows Me

You're just taking the wrong approach. It's called "cloud" because of all the smoke marketing guys are blowing up the asses of investors.
Depends on how many additional rounds of Release Date Shuffle we're facing.
wordpress.COM is a hosting service service which offers Wordpress blog setups out-of-the-box.
wordpress.ORG is where the software itself is published.
Or a business move to get a shitload of masochists to buy the game.

I'm also using a prepaid card, but on this side of the pond I'm paying 1â/GB. Minor difference.
