Oh by the way. The spire doesn't react to machines or organics.

Its just that a poke with a metal finger would make a sound, rather than one with a normal finger.

You have to figure it out.

I just like seeing you people come up with really complicated explinations.

As some one who worked that business, if you complain about pre-order bonuses.... Screw you, you don't understand how they work at all and are just complaining to complain.

They actually do a very very very important role, they get you to preorder the game, which is NOT just about the money FYI, it actualy provides us with a very important piece of information.

Just how popular that game will be, so that we know how many of the game to stock.

On your end it makes sure that surprise hits are actually in stock when you want the, and you don't get things like them being re-sold for 400usd on ebay because no store has them in stock.

And on our end, it prevents a flop from having millions of copies ordered and people losing there jobs so that the losses can be recovered.

Just buy the DLC later if it annoys you that much, there all timed exclusive an way, or actualy pay retail, suport the developers and make sure we know which games to buy for you people. :/

hey Imca, since you've actually worked in the gaming industry I have a question regarding the morality of downloading Roms. There is a game series I want to play, but it suffers from No Export for You, even if I did get my hands on a hard copy (which is unlikely since they're rather old) it wouldn't play on my system due to region locking (and not to mention it's in a different language). However there is a Rom available on the internet along with an english translation patch. how evil would I be considered for downloading the Rom?

Its more I worked on the retail end I sold games and fixed computers, it was a nice job, I loved it.

Ummmm

Although I can answer that question. No export for you is a god reason t fetch a ROM IMHO, however it is still technically illegal if you dont delete it within 48 hours.

HOWEVER, if you own a hard copy, you are both morally AND legally in the right to download ROMs, torrent copies, whatever you wish, moraly because you own it, and legally because... explication inbound.


People complain about on-disk DLC too but once again this is because they don't understand how it works, LEGALLY when you buy a game, you are not buying the disk, the data on the disk, or the cartridge, or even the data that is downloaded.

Your buying the RIGHT to use the software, whatever that specific software is, this works both ways, it means they are legally and morally in the right to do shit like on disk DLC.... but...

for you, the consumer, this means you are legally entitled to that software, completely even if you say lose the disk, if you can prove you bought it and you lost the disk? The video-game company is legally required to replace it, nor can they take action if you download it.

...

I have actually used that fact several times, while they almost always give me a hard time to prove that I owned the software, once I did without fail, they will replace it... Done that for Spore, Command and Conquer Red Alert 3, Mass Effect 3, and Dragon Age, and Galactic Civilizations 2.

...

Bio-ware was actually fairly nice to deal with as was Stardock, they did not stonewall me at all. Bioware wanted a scan of my manual along with a hand written note, and Stardock just requested me to cite paragraph 3, on page 254 of the owners manual...

And yes the manual is that big. ._.;
