As usual, you're totally off base and wrong. Video games are a product as such but you do not own the game, you pay for the right to use the product for your own personal use. No you cannot play without permission, that is exactly what you are paying for. You do not own the game. The game...

Copyright laws extend way beyond digital media, and do exactly in fact give the holder rights to decide if people can make money off of their work or not, "gives the copyright holder the right to be credited for the work, to determine who may adapt the work to other forms, who may perform the...

The only person in this conversation who's bitching and raging is you over someone who has a different opinion in a regular discussion. There's that fuzzy logic thing again, sort it out. There are a million reasons as to why I and many others are not making LPs. It's a pretty immature...

I said VIEWS, not subscribers. Big difference. "So, yes, my analogy holds up." No, it doesn't at all. There are direct comparisons to sportsmen in the gaming world, and LPers aren't them. It's pretty obvious and until you can think and argue logically then I have little more to say to...

There are professional gamers, e sports and all the rest of it which will continue to operate as usual. This does not affect them. Even if it did perhaps you're not familiar with the likes of Rugby Union where only a decade or so ago it finally became professional. Your analogy is terrible...

Spoiler, I think you may have taken that first paragraph a bit too seriously. There was even an "if" thrown in there too. ;-) Be interesting to see how all this turns out, regardless.

But people who monetize game videos without permission could certainly be considered an operating business. Without money it's a bit different but I can understand well the creator's perspective. Essentially people are taking your work and making money from it for nothing.

Heh, that's not a totally unfair assessment. :-) It's really not hard to make LPs, especially as nearly all of them are of someone just playing a game normally with an annoying running commentary of nothingness.

If it gets rid of the likes of Pewdiepie, then it's long overdue and I'm all for it. They provide nothing insightful, unfunny and don't deserve the often large incomes. That said, those who do the opposite of the above will be affected too so in all honesty I find these new restrictions...

Nope, just "officially" revealed. No gameplay shown at all, just scenery and text. Pretty meh

Just been announced on Spike VGX. I heard it was Game of Thrones but this is 100x better. Anyone else hyped? Going to be more Telltale style but with plenty of humour, has handsome Jack too. Oh and you are not going to be a vault hunter.

Never even heard of this guy before, nor whatever show Community is. Sounds like they're on to a real winner here. Surely there are others more suited both to gaming and mass-market appeal?

Apparently there are immigrants in the country too, he's probably one of them and probably even has a wide screen TV! The audacity. Come the fuck on. I saw a related thread on a similar website and it went exactly the same way. Frankly I'm quite disgusted by the mentality shown by far...

Chemtrails are a load of bullocks. Cloud seeding has been done for years and is well documented, they're completely different things and the planes used are tiny. Ancient aliens are far more plausible (not that I buy into those either) but arguing that tourists, airport workers...

I'd love a period piratical game in first person. The first person segments in AC4 really drives home how much more immersive it is than third. Platforming and melee combat have proven to be successful in it too so with the right team it could be very special indeed. I wouldn't be interested...
