    List of companies that need to die or changes there ways

    Activision
    Ea
    Thq
    Capcom
    Sony online entertainment


    Just a handful of companies that seriously have pissed of alot of consumers with online pass, milking , subscriptions that are over priced , lock on content on disc.

    Hope they all rot and go bankrupt

    Yeah 50% of the company has walked out since mw2 release.

    Everyone programmer could leave and they'd just replace em, the series is a juggernaut now, they could charge what want, and the game could be crap, but will always sell and always rake in the dough

    For every disgruntled gamer, theres a thousand 16 yr olds who have to have the latest COD game, regardless

    As long as the lonewolf zero teamplay style of COD multiplayer does not seep into stuff like BF3, then I'm happy and they can do what they like

    Tbh I don't have a problem with online passes. If I buy a game second hand for 10e or less under the original price and the game developers get nothing out of it i feel they deserve a cut. How about the second hand shops who don't tell you that you need an online pass.

    It seeped into it after blops was released. BC2 was a nightmare to play.

    this is hardly shocking news - actiblizzard has hinted at this for years, its an effective way of maximising the profits attached to the game - it effectively means they can release an absolute shell of a game and drip-feed premium content for months.

    That's the bit I just don't get. That's the greed right there! CoD is already, what, one of the biggest selling franchises at the moment? Do they really need to make even more cash? They are going to make a bomb on disc sales, nevermind anything else. It's sh1te like this that will run the gaming industry into the ground. Wanna sell a bigger better experience than last year? Try a double-disc game at face value!

    Yes they have to try to maximize profits for their shareholders.
