END UPDATE
++++++++++++++++
Ah ya know- forget it. I had a whole post up a moment ago (perhaps you saw it)...but I told myself I was done arguing with people on the net.
Old habits die hard I suppose but yeah, lemme just delete that. What's the point.
Let me just say this to be clear...and I've said this before and I will never waiver: if you are a consumer, get the best motherfucking deal you can. If you can get a game- legally- for free and it lasts you and entertains you for YEARS without you spending a dime, then go for it. I am a firm believer in:
a- capitalism (assuming it's regulated...which it's really not in our country, which sucks)
b- customer ALWAYS being right
And if my idea of shorter/cheaper games is as dumb as some of you think, the market will bear that out. But if it's as smart as some of you think, then soon we'll all be playing much shorter 1 player titles :)
We'll see!
Take it easy ya'll!

ps. By the way, this is a blog. It's not official industry mandate. That is why I often use phrases like 'it seems to me' and 'I THINK it should be this way' and 'I would LIKE this"...meaning they are my opinions. I don't think they HAVE to be your opinions but this is- as you can probably tell from the header- my blog. I'm not here to have a fair debate among all parties. I'm here to express my views of the world and the industry. That's what I thought a blog was for.
