you are horribly wrong, runescape peaked at about 1.2 mill

they'll do whatever anyone else with a failing mmo would do, at the moment that would be free to play but in 10 years when it drops below x mill subs who knows what that will be.

i'd actually like to know the average age of wow players, i rarely meet anyone young in there. also you have no fucking clue about trends, facebook games have been dieing off horribly over the last year

maybe you did, i quit at 60 after about 2 weeks, end game was fucking ridiculous. 9 months later i heard about a guy who'd been trying to get his hat for 3 months... and i laughed my ass off. been subbed since BC after that

Sometimes it goes up a couple mill, sometimes it goes down a couple mill... IT"S A FUCKING ROLLERCOASTER WOOOOOOOOOO!

it's not about a superior input mechanism, it's about a more realistic one. playing on one of these things will cripple you compared to a mouse + keyboard or even a controller, but that's not the point. i enjoy a good keyboard/mouse shooter but i'd love to give this + oculus a go at some point, hopefully they put them in some kind of arcade type setting so i don't have to dedicate 2 metres of my game room to expensive future landfill.

with paintball it's the raising of the stakes people enjoy, much like playing poker with (non casino) chips vs real money.

maybe you should should do some research before you foist your actual stupidity on others.

if you use it as a currency it's a currency, it's not a hoity toity term to describe government mandated units of exchange.

you can exchange it for other currencies or goods & services, how exactly is it a fake currency?

doubt it, if samsung threatened to drop android they could easily get access to that shit. they have their own appstore already, it just sucks balls.

the thing is they're not THE supplier for mobile computing, i'd be surprised if google's phones are over 2% market share. maybe if microsoft made a worthwhile competitor to google services for android mobile manufacturers might actually put it on their phone.

that would be more a complaint against the nexus phones, not android, as manufacturers can put whatever defaults they want on their phones. Considering that the nexus phones are no-where near a monopoly even that would probably be a stretch.

bullshit, i'd given up getting flash working on my linux boxes until google fixed it up and built it into chrome. flash is a piece of shit, but it's worse on linux.

so, since it would run like shit on any current arm system does that mean they're targeting it at no-one?
