Just separate single player and online accounts, or give people the option to do so

That would reduce the potential market for their real money auction house. The whole point of this charade is to get as many cattle as possible into the fields, "farming" items for Blizzard to profit from.

Yes. Bully is exactly the GTA model brought to boarding school. Gangs have been replaced by cliques. Cars and motorcycles have been replaced by skateboards, go-karts and bicycles. Guns and grenades have been replaced by slingshots and stink bombs.

It follows the formula to the letter.

Are you kidding? Bell, Rogers and Telus will be at each other's throats to offer the hottest new Nintendo product. They really don't care whether you pay for your data plan or if Nintendo does. Nintendo's habit of locking their devices down is also likely to appeal to these companies, since their goal is to collect monthly revenue without users doing anything on the network.

I agree with the article. Plot is massively overrated. I find that the majority of games touted for "great plots" reek of frustrated author syndrome where game play takes a back seat to the writer's vision.

I get far more enjoyment out of games that provide a large variety of game play mechanics, situations, re-playability and multi-player.
