Because that's all they make, and they want to keep their brand fresh. Colgate makes toothpaste. Charmin makes toilet paper. Folgers makes coffee. That's what they do. Aquafresh and Crest make toothpaste, too. They advertise to get their brand awareness up. Just like Charmin isn't the only...

I do find it highly suspect that they announced Project Titan and there has been little or no news on it since it's initial press release. It makes me wonder if they're keeping a tight lid on it, or if they've just quietly scrapped the project in the hopes that the attention span of the average...

Actually, it seems like pandering, which is a form of desperation all in it's own. "Oh noes! They want playable pandas! We better pony up or we may actually have to make a new game." This is why I don't understand. Blizzard has the oppertunity, the capital and the know-how to be a powerhouse...

What this smacks of is not that I don't like WoW, It's that I don't like the people who play it. People like you, who will defend it as the pinnacle of what gaming has to offer. The people who will still continue to support Blizzard's cash cow, and not encourage them to innovate or encourage...

That's kinda my point. It's been 8 years now. If you're gonna be that late to the party, why bother showing up at all? If you know someone who plays WoW and you don't, chances are they've tried to talk you into joining/returning to the game. If you haven't bitten by now, you're likely not going...

The real question here is what does it cost a new player to get into WoW? I am admittedly ignorant on the subject, as I haven't touched it since the release of Burning Crusade and I'm not interested enough in it to put the effort into researching it. Surely they can't a expect a player...

I'm going to ask a question that occurred to me last night when I was watching TV and saw an ad for the new WoW expansion. Why does Blizzard have to spend retarded amounts of money securing time on TV, ads in magazines and on web sites? One would think that everyone who wanted or needed to...

The only way to improve this is to invent a time machine, go back to 14 years ago and put a motivational boot up someone's ass on the 3D Realms dev team to tell them to finish DNF and make it good and get it done fast... This way they don't kill the franchise with an awful game containing poor...

For the same reason I don't play Minecraft. They are both objective-less time sinks. Now before everyone gets on my ass about it... Sure Skyrim does have a story, and quests and objectives and all that happy horseshit. But if you plow straight through that you end up with the sort of empty...

You are all aware that the object of any relationship with the opposite sex is the search for one that will destroy you slower than any of the others?

Well, Yes and no. Insofar that I don't go out of my way to be a dick to people, but when people go out of their way to be a dick to me, I go out of mine to be a bigger one back. I suppose it depends on how you view a petty and vindictive nature in the grand scheme of things.

I'm American, and I have to say that I don't get annoyed at all. It's because of what this country has done both here and overseas that makes us one of the most hated nations in the world, No one tries to hold the people that are responsible for the way the world views us, they just want do to...

Morrowind is hard to get into at first. You have to force yourself up the learning curve. But the initial effort is well worth the the payoff. If you're like me, well, like I used to be before I started playing MMOs, then you would buy a game, and not buy another one until you beat it. (The...

I tell a really good story, so assuming that this apocalypse puts an end to entertainment as we know it, (Music, TV, Movies, Internet) I would be a bard of sorts, and would wander my happy ass over the ruined countryside looking for people to regale with my tales. On top of that, I can...
