All those people who are saying that it will suck when PSN is shut down etc. Seriously? You're happy for Sony and other companies to use draconian methods, which fly in the face of every other form of media or electronics to abuse your rights as a purchaser? Sure there will be fallout, but...

You know, this may be the first thread I've ever read, anywhere, which actually contains complete agreement... (I admit to getting bored of reading after the first 6 pages, so I suppose someone could have trolled it somewhere between 7 and 10)

I miss you guys already. Whargarble!!

It rolls downstairs, comes unawares, rolls over your neighbours dog. It's good for a snack it fits on your back it's log, log, log! It's log, log, it's big it's heavy it's wood. It's log, log, it's better than bad, it's good! New log from Blammo! Awesome Ren & Stimpy reference guys.

Well, like I mentioned before, it has a lot more people and a lot more colour. Think of it as Autumn in the Zone, orange, gold and yellow cover a lot of the landscape. As to the gameplay it's a drastic improvement on CS, but it lacks the original bleakness of SoC. The story is a bit weak and...

You beat me to it. The notion that game mechanic is more important than story and that if they are both good it is mere happenstance, is appalling. Why make a video game if this is what you believe? They should just make bloody algorithm software for supercomputers or something if that's how...

Sure, I understand that, but we're not talking about bugs specifically, but about glitches, in other words functionality issues with the gameplay, not errors or exceptions in the code that lead to problems. Glitches should be found a lot easier than bugs since I assume they occur irrespective...

I'm not sure I see your point, we agree there isn't one already...

Am I the only one that thinks 'If you'd bothered to sufficiently playtest this game and ensure it was glitch free instead of releasing it before it was finished (like almost every other bloody game that's come out in the last 5 years), then glitching wouldn't be a problem'? I don't glitch, I...

The main issue I have with the OP is that Aristotle and Plato were directing their arguments towards moral philosophy (what consists in and of goodness, and to what extent we are agents or patients of that moral essence). Games and indeed the act of gaming are not moral issues, but, as Plato...

I don't think mingleplayer will replace singleplayer as some people seem to be scaremongering about. Clearly there's a place for all these types of gameplay and long may it be so, new techs come and go and we should enjoy reaping the benefits of that development.

I disagree. A troll is concerned with misdirecting the normal flow of a topic, on a regular basis. It is more about his actions over time, repeatedly acting to do so, rather than how it is achieved. I've come across every single one of those trolls, many times. Belief in their own words is...

Yup. I cannot fathom why people would support the games industry on this. If you buy something legally you are then the owner of that item. What you choose to do with this item is entirely up to you. 2nd hand games trading has been going on since the dawn of time. Companies are only...

Amy Pond, but if she's out then the TARDIS, clearly.

As far as I'm concerned the thing that STALKER 2 needs most is a return to the 'loneliness' of the original. I've played SoC more times than I can mention (mostly on veteran with Redux mod and no trading), and there really is no other game experience that comes close to creating the sense of...
