I dont have much time for pc games as i used to so i have to chose wisely.
Normaly i know before hand what im looking for loke HL2 or Rome total war but games here are always sold a few weeks after US release so i get to read comments of ppl who know about games.Us gamers i trust reviews made...
But you should warn people on the product you are selling that it will not be ok to eat before a certain date.
HL2 box should say :"only possible to play on the 16th"
I agree with steam and an online activation its valves product and they do as they please.But they shoudl warn buyers.Thats...
There is a logic to must of the differences.
For isntance people complain that in England they drive on th WRONG side of the road.
But actually they follow a simple rule. They copy the railroad position on the track.If you think about it you will see what i mean.
They invented the steam train...
Ok i going to write a letter to Mr Bush for him to change this in the US then the rest will follow.
Actually we cant complain for other cultures they are way way past the year 2004 or way way behind it.
Its not the same thing.Its like the old lady buying the cup off coffee and McDonalds saying they will only pour in the coffee in 2 or 3 days.
Ok i will shut up now
Ok now imagine that the legal issue between vivendi and valve breaks on monday and valve say no to unlocking the game for the retail version and unlocking the steam bought copies.
I understand you were tought to write it month/day/year but in my logic :P it should start with the shortest measure and go up day/month/year.
(Man am i bored waiting for HL2 or what...i´m like a menopausic woman complaining...)
My point exactly blackmesadude.
It should be explicit on the box that you can only play on the 16th
i dont care whos fault it is shop/vivendi or valve.
Ok its very confusing the way different ppl write the dates.
12/11/2004
11/12/2204
I mean december or november the 11th or the 12th.
Ok there must be some logic in this.
THe way i see it you should start with the shortest and then do up
day/month/year or the other way round...
I hope so too.
But as Descartes law if man is imperfect he will create imperfect things.
Final product will not be perfect.
But im sure that its a step in the right direction.
Next will be perment internet connection to play single player game.
ATI still got good sales on the 9800 pro a year ago
and now they get good sale on x800 so i think they came out of it pretty well considering waht could have gone bad
