He makes a damn good point, when do we as consumers finally say enough is enough. I'm starting to get tired of paying for a game just to have someone bend me over and say just take it, we have to do a rectal scan to make sure your not ripping us off. What happen to the times when you bought something, not LEASED it. I'm sorry I thought the game was for sale not for rent. It's like buying a car but being told you can only drive it on certain streets at certain times. Oh and yes a we made our money the first time we sold the game, and dlc can't be sold used but you are not allowed to pay $20 for a $60 game that after a few months will only cost $20 new. They want a law about pirating, we as consumers should lobby for a law to stop them from ripping us off. I would love to see EA's accounting books to see how "bad" they really are doing.
Okay I liked this episode. I agreed with most of it, and I am starting to see what you bring to the site. It is nice to see another valid opinion that is completely(or at least not afraid to contest with) Extra Credits and Movie Bob.
Ohh and just a side note...please Jim, PLEASE fix your audio. It isn't hard to properly sound mix a basic video project like this. I'm not asking you use different mics, or learn how to use them properly. I'm just asking that you bring up the levels when it is quiet, and bring them down when they distort. If you have any questions on how to do that I am sure the LRR guys are happy to help (cause their shit is ALWAYS perfect).

On your first point, I would like to add that I spend less time waiting on PC updates than console updates for some reason. What's up with that?WaaghPowa said:
Hey, dunno what you did to Jim but keep it up, this was a good episode 
Now i just have to decide between Jimquisition+ and the Publishers Club. Hmmm

Just two things to be honest here:
One, he does have a good point on the subject matter. I enjoyed this one for the way he presented it, and how bloody well true it is that we don't need 50 different accounts to play what is essentially 40 different games. Kinda sad how it's getting there eh?
Two, sure, I understand it's all an act and whatnot, and I'm only getting this off my chest, but I personally feel that the way this man portrays himself as a "character" i suppose you could say still makes me want to tie him to a stake and burn him. But that's just me. Selfish, vain people are one thing, Jim is another. I just pray he isn't this way IRL
Anyways, there's my one cents and my one getting it out of the system comment.

I might be interested in Jimquisition+ if we got to cop a feel too, otherwise its not worth the money.
I've not actually watched Jimquisition before, but this was pretty good. Also, am I the only one who noticed that he was using "Jesters of the Moon" from FFIX as background music? One of my favorite FF games and OST's and it's used in the first episode of this I decided to watch... I think I'll have to watch the other episodes now.
Is that studded balls keychain dildo part of the Jimquisition+ membership? And I totally agree on the saturation of services and whatnot, way too many passwords to remember.
Good job, Jim. Amusing, insightful, well-constructed. Looks like the teething period is pretty much over.
Account consolidation (or simply not requiring one to sign up for additional accounts in the first place) would not only make for less complications when signing in to play games (saving the password ideas for those with jobs involving national security or secret recipes), it would give hackers fewer ways to acquire one's personal information.(Right now, it's a veritable schmorgasbord!)
That'll free people up to join the Jimquisition+ program! Those fridge magnets better be worth it!

"I'll be back whether you fucking like it or not"
Ha that made me laugh, Jim, you got balls.
Good episode, and I guess it's nice to see some people finally coming around and not just slagging you off.
EDIT: I just realised, people liked this episode because he was basically slagging off the publishing giants, which is considered cool on this website...

Hmm,I'm very surprised.
This episode has managed to entertain me to a point where I thought impossible.
Good job sir!
