North Corea is making money by selling WoW items, right? Why not everybody? http://games.slashdot.org/story/11/08/08/2129237/North-Korea-Accused-of-Hacking-Online-Games-For-Profit?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Slashdot%2FslashdotGames+(Slashdot%3A+Games)&utm_content=Google+Reader

Genius! You had me laughing for 10 minutes

Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy) - Now this is the kind of game/movie that I would love to see more of. The idea was simple: a game that plays like a movie but in which you still continuously(almost) PLAY the game. It had great story, great feeling to the scenes, sound was appropriate and cinematics blended in so naturally. It all worked out. In my opinion I would give that game an Oscar. I think the story is the most important aspect of a game - as in any movie. Match it with good acting and keep the user playing (not as a spectator) and you will get a lot of success with it. In time, if enough of these are created, games will get their own Oscar award. P.S. I know Grammy's are just for sound.. but we're talking about entertainment in general here.

The thing abou boycott is that I am slowly but surely loosing trust in all the big corporations. If I stop buying Apple because they are evil with their tight control on what you do on your device (and I agree), Samsung because they install keyloggers, Sony because of the PS3 other OS crap (and GeoHot lawsuit), Microsoft, Google, Toshiba, Dell... Guys! I'm starting to run out of options here! Everybody pulls a lot of crap nowadays, and it seems that if they don't, they quickly loose market advantage and start pulling crappy products on the market. Can you help me name ONE big corporation that didn't try to screw their customers in one way or another?

Well, in my point of view, as long as they got their hands on the license (which I have no doubt they did) it's their license now. If you love the Ultima universe then you'll at least be glad there is somebody with enough resources to continue the series in a dignifying manner. At least they are obviously going to get out at least one more game (browser or not) as opposed to other licenses they got their hands on and just killed.
