The MPAA is lightyears behind (atleast the) ESRB.

New version of SF4 comes out in June as a downloadable upgrade. I wonder if you would be able to upgrade that free xbl version to Ultra. Or if it would be worth the risk, considering(i assume) its like the psn where you only have the games for the time you are subscribed.

That would be the rational observers opinion on the whole thing, yes.

Shoutouts to notch for participating in the doom-and-gloom philosophy of people by being the first dev to pull out of occulus support because of FB. Its just a self-fulfilling prophecy.

@seppli: Thats what I figured it was, considering it was a beta and all.

Has anyone else playing on the PC noticed lag even with super low ping? Last match i played i had a ping that at the highest was 60 and at the lowest was 18 and still had very noticeable lag. I am playing on WiFi but i never had that issue with any other multiplayer games, and I've played everything from Call of Duty to Street Fighter. Granted those games are all player matching, so maybe the serverside nature of this game is especially sensitive to playing on WiFi? or maybe I'm wrong about the correlation between ping and lag? Just curious if anyone else has noticed it or if it was something on my end.

Great, but it's based on a false premise, at least to me. Just because someone pays a lower price doesn't mean they don't appreciate it, it just means they took a chance and possibly bought a game that wasn't for them. I dont understand the logic of not wanting your game to reach as many people as possible.

I dont see the big deal here. When a game goes on sale people lower their quality standards(or venture out of their comfort zone) and buy a game they normally wouldn't, leading them to possibly giving up on said game sooner than they would if they payed full price(because they were more interested in the game). Rohrer makes it sound like he did some massive amount of research and the results proved that the lower price CAUSED people to play less. Insinuating that the consumers actively thought "well, i only got this game for 5 bucks on steam sale so..i dont need to keep playing it", when the thought was actually probably more like "well i took a chance on this cheap game i wasnt sure i would like...".

Some of the games on my list i have played the most i got on steam sale, Binding of Isaac, Spelunky, Super Street Fighter 4. Those are games i knew i wanted but at the time, couldn't afford to buy all of them so (at the time i still had a working console) I stuck to playing games on ps3. But as soon as those went on sale i bought them. In the other hand there are other games i got on sale that i didnt play as much for various reasons, like i wasnt as interested in them and took a gamble buying them at a cheaper price, or in the cases of Batman Arkham City, and GTA4, i bought them when i had already beat them on console. Just to have and possibly play again. There are a lot of different reasons people buy games, that sales open up for them.
