He's still active with the destructoid community, just outside destructiod. Dunno why he doesn't comment/blog as much
On another note, he owes me a prize for finding out a secret in a video of his
WHERE'S MY GODDAMN PRIZE?
It sounds like someone doesn't get it.
"Imagine if they sold you half the game for $40"
That already happened; it's called Beautiful Katamari.
If Capcom wanted to charge me $55 for the game and another $5 for the multiplayer, I would be cool with that and would agree with your argument. But that's not how it works. Capcom is setting a dangerous precedent here. How would you have liked paying $60 for the campaign mode in Halo 3, but the be charged $15 for the online (as they actually seem to have spent much more developing the multiplayer)? Or Gears? Or Call of Duty? Or whatever action games that attempt to give a rich campaign mode but realize that online multiplayer pulls in tons and tons of customers and expands their user-base.
Since I don't play most games' online multiplayer (fighting games being an exception), I would love your idea of $40 for the campaign, and the option to buy the multi. But that aint how it works.
When somebody puts a pricetag on things that used to be free you end up with this. Because, as Eric Idle says at the end of the clip, "Ah well, there's one born every minute."
What haxan said. All defense of this method of DLC is like the 'If you don't like America, you can get out' argument.
Electro Lemon actually writes for some other video game blog, I can't remember which though.
Gynolectric Cobron? He's also all over Twitter.
haxans so smart and dreamy
