Steam figures can't be dismissive. Skryim set the record for concurrent single player users at 250,000 or so so total Steam sales would likely need to be at least double that.

Well justified though they probably should have addressed the elephant is in the room (the figurative one, not the literal one) that is Diablo 3. Personally speaking, I've never been much of a fan of either franchise but I'll probably give Torchlight 2 a shot due to (hopefully) less constrictive DRM and lower price point.

That was awesome. I nearly spit out my tea when I got to the last page and saw the big fat 0%. I was curious enough about the game to consider buying it if not for the DRM so you had me going with the 'review'. Your points in Ballistics are more than salient though and I hope that the 0% gets picked up by Metacritic regardless of your intention. Ubisoft absolutely deserves all the shit they are receiving lately. I'm sick and tired of delayed shitty console ports slathered with DRM that only restricts paying customers, not pirates, and Driver:SF and From Dust are picture perfect examples. As such I will leave these products on the shelf and spend my money elsewhere. Keep up the great work Jacob.

Really nothing surprising here. Activision likes money and a console Diablo 3 would certainly make them a lot of that. There isn't much holding back the action rpg genre on consoles either. Besides likely causing the delay of the PC version, a move like this would just make sense.

Welcome to the fold Joel! I'm delighted to hear that you are going to be giving FS some much needed lovin. It's a great site with a unique focus that has never lived up to its potential. And please, PLEASE, don't forget to drop by the forums to interact community. There is an amazing crew there. Frag Nights are 10pm Friday nights. (TF2 tonight) Anyway, glad to have you on board.

This makes me consider selling mine. Note like it has gotten a whole lot of use since I bought it. I've spent more time playing PS2 games on it than I have PS3 games.

Fuck advertising in all shapes and forms.

??? The only game Funcom made out of your list was The Longest Journey. Journeyman Project was made by Sanctuary Woods (RIP), Grim Fandango was made by LucasArts (RIP), and Myst was made by Cyan (RIP). I wholly agree that those are some fantastic and classic games. Hell, the Longest Journey and Grim Fandango are my two favorite games of all time but they weren't made by Funcom. The only other adventure game they made besides Longest Journey was its sequel, Dreamfall, which fell way short of the mark in my book.

Long live adventure games.

I agree DrKeo. Stories like these only promote piracy, especially by naming the group. If the gaming press didn't pick up on this story the would probably be 1/10th the pirate scum downloading it right now.

I can understand being bitter at the removal of the kick ass gentlemanly mustache Carnby sported in the original trilogy but even still the game looks pretty sweet.

I'll definitely be picking up Sherlock Holmes and probably Okami (again) if the control scheme works as well as it should.

I'll pick up Prologue once it hits $20 but certainly not before.

In other words, the much touted 'free' game will come with 2 maps and all others will be 'for pay'.

GTA is just the candy sprinkles on top. EA mainly wants take 2 for its sports franchises. This would basically leave consumers with one sports game per sport to choose from and they will all go stale the way Madden did. I don't like the 'if you can't beat 'em, buy 'em' mentality. No competition leads to no innovation.

Looks effing sweet to me. I think Sega might finally be listening to the fans for a change and making the Sonic game we've been clamoring 15 years for. From what I've seen so far this is a sure-fire pre-order for me. Can't wait.

Hmmm... let's see here.

-My 360 has a 120gig drive with 70+ gigs free. Nope, no problem there.

-My PS3 has a 160gig drive with 100+ gigs free. Yup, that checks out.

-My Wii has a 512mb drive with about 50mb free. Nintendo, we have a problem.

If Nintendo wants me to buy downloadable games from them they damn well better give me a place to store them soon. Swapping games to the SD card to download new ones is unbelievably lame!

Not exactly my type of Metal either but I'll be picking them up for a change of pace from the usual Rock Band selection. Bon Jovi blows hard.

Well 9mil sounds high to me but hell, if Mario & Sonic at the Olympics can sell 5mil, anything is possible.

The Iron Man movie is going to tank regardless of GTA. Movies are dumb.
