“Occasionally, [EA] had games that got cancelled or failed or whatever, but the thing is, you didn’t have to sell very much to make money. They made a lot of money in those days. I mean, they still do today, presumably, but it’s harder. Those days, they spent 50 grand on this game, and they sold it for $40 or $50. Maybe their wholesale was $20 or so. So they only had to sell a couple thousand copies, basically. If it came out, it broke even or made money.”

Pretty good deal. Closest Target is 2 hours away, but am going there this weekend so will check out.

I just spent $400 on a tractor tyre (that's tire for you americans). I cannot fully explain how un-fulfilling that is.

That's a lot of money to pay just to run over games with a tractor.

new wiiu update adds the avility to transfer all your data from one wiiu to another. This is a step in the right direction if you ask me. If your wiiu is about to die, you can at least take precautions and clone all your data to a new one.

Nice.

I played so much Mario Kart yesterday and didn't run into any of you guys. I played against Bear from America but he didn't have the stache and sunglasses so I knew it wasn't our bear. I want to face off with Edge, Foolz and Vader.

Two really cool things about Divinity: Original Sin you might not know:

(1) It has an incredibly well designed elemental effect system built into it. Fire melts ice into Water, Water turns into Steam to lower enemy accuracy. Ice will cool down your parties if they are burning. Rain will wash away Poison. Oil can be spilled on the Battlefield, then set alight. Water can be electrified to Stun enemies, clouds of Steam can be charged to do the same. Wet enemies can be frozen. Rain can be called down to weaken Fire Demons... it goes on and on and on. The way everything interacts makes the battes utterly ingenious and all unique. There are plenty of Magic user characters you can make to take advantage of these, but there's also Thieves, Archers, Knights, Witches, etc, etc, etc. One of the best designed battle systems E-V-E-R ! ! !

(2) The game is ONLINE, CO-OP enabled! How you and the other player agree, disagree, answer questions or argue affects the story or the outcomes of the varying quests. You also gain stat bonuses on how Loyal or Bold, Charismatic or Pragmatic, Romantic or Initimidating your conversation choices turn out to be. This is one of the most fluid and diverse RPGs I've EVER played!!

Is this PC only? And you wonder why not more of us are playing it?

Sounds cool.

Game came out of nowhere...was not on my radar. It sounds awesome but I have so much else to play....will wait for a Steam sale.

He'still playing.  We should join.

I turned that shit in. Made a profit.

Anyone care to guess what my 1,234th finished game was? Don't stress about guessing wrong. If you do, we can simply go back in time and try again.

Bastard, I wanted to race.

BTW if you guys spot a German called Fabian on Mario Kart or a Frenchie called Videoc, be sure to violently ass rape them for me, then spit on their corpses.
