Well, summer is over - almost and back int eh saddle again. New headset toy - yeay, same ol' computer. Still, not that many new games. Got the latest Call of Duty, then downloaded the Fallout pack on STEAM. Most new games are either activation restricted or plagued by GFWL logins an whatnots.
Had been looking forward to Batman, but he surfs the brown-river of Pooh for all I care right now. I was looking over Mass Effect and Bioschock on steam to see if they had removed the CP crap, one had but the price was the same as for a brandspanking new game so no thank you. ME might be fine but I'm not paying too much money to interact now and then in a scripted movie with choices. Too many games from Bioware have been like that. Come on Bioware - make a movie from scratch instead, I promise I would go see it no doubt, but when I'm in charge - behind my 22" monitor, with graphical gaming beast chewing Xbox 360's I want a game.
So, I have withstand that crap that is GFWL - and been playing some Dawn of War 2. All of a sudden some achievements flashes by and I'm like "meh" o I care? Hell no - my commander just received a Hellfire gun what do I care about some crappy achievement telling me that I killed an enemy or otherwise made something they deemed achievable. I don't stop I play the game, not bragging about it.
Still haven't gotten over the disaster that is Street Fighter, yeah I know many probably like it, but I don't. I still feel cheated on the manual and have since started to check most games on STEAM to see if they comes with a PDF guide or not. How hard could it be? All manuals are made digitall to begin with so just load it up there - DAMNED - but sometimes it is like people actually are getting high on doing things the wrong way. If someone says, annoyed that I didn't search the galaxy first and on my own:"hey you can download it from snippetimyass/manuals/22323232/shitfaced/manualstreedfighterdagamemanual.html I say: "Fuck you and fuck your argument - I paid for the shit and I expect to be treated as a paying customer and paying customers have one thing pirates don't: a paid ticket to whine and scream and blog an actually carry every little bit of critisiscm foward as the end of the world news shit! That is the way of being a consumer. I shall expect to be treated right and fair - and if someone doesn't - I get to whine and roar!
At least if I skipped buying a game with actications because then I might end up pleading on a pay-your-ass-and-soul-to-talk my heart out to get another activation. No thank you - I will try to stay in control over my gaming, just for a few more years - when it gets too bothersome - I just quit this shit and go back to readin books full time and surfing shitty games on Facebook or whatever.

Totally Agree with you both!
Stupidity!

Tried wireless and everything but we are in a spot without connection.
So, when going there it is bye bye to some games and welcome all to the oldies and goldies. My personal favourite right now is Baldurs Gate 2 - with widescreen fix. Yummy!

But do Steam, GFW or Activision/Blizzard listen...of course not.
Good post Wolfy, keep the rage going and hope that someone will listen. Unfortunately I believe that things are only going to get worse.
Optimism: Things can always get worse than they are!
