DLC has become standard issue these days. Mass Effect 2 takes full advantage of the system which forces game owners to pay more money to buy the complete version of their already steep $50-$60 investment. What ever happened to the days of free add-ons and expansion packs?
Read about what EA has done according to the first reviews after the break...
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Def Jam Vendetta / Fight for New York

Burnout 3 / 4 / 5
Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
Gareth, Justin, and JoeyZ look at Layoff news for EA and Sony and reasons behind the downturn in the industry and more.
Shoulda gave it like a $3-5 price if it's really that short.
The gaming public as a whole does not like DLC. Sales numbers do not lie. What console is the only one that DOESN'T push DLC at you? The Wii. What is the highest-selling console with the majority of this gen's highest-selling games? The Wii.
"...does this mean exploitation of gamers will become common practice for major titles in the future?" -author
Sadly, the exploitation of gamers has already become common practice for major titles in the future, present, or otherwise.
I have never purchased a single piece of dlc so far this gen. And i plan on never doing so unless its actually worth it.
