MP3 got the shooting right generally but it fumbled with an awful story and cutscenes destroyed the pacing, unskippable ruining the replay.

Rockstar doesn't write half as good as they think they do.

Ordered parts for my new pc build today. Hard drive failed, so why not build a whole new pc, right? Of course the hdd fails and I decide this after all the deals from black friday/cyber monday.

Endless Space is #48 on the Top Sellers list. I guess I'm not the only one who balked at that price.

I wasn't arguing, I was asking a legitimate question, then responding to being lynched. The responses took 30 seconds so your point is moot. Seriously, if there are no deals posted, why is this in the deals thread? Is it just cuz someone stopped updating it, and conversations continued? No need to be so hostile, for real.

No, I couldn't have. I can't visit Steam site, or run the App from the network I look at CAG from. Thanks for trying to be a punk, though.

The cutscenes were videos hiding the loading. I believe they became skippable when the load finished, at least on the PS3 where I played it. I may be remembering it wrong though.

I responded to each post as I scrolled down & read them. I have a right to respond to the juvenile mob mentality to attack someone for raising a legit issue. Sorry if you are part of the 'mob' and don't want to answer the question, which is apparent by ignoring the attacks on me for asking a question. I didn't respond to every post in a single post because I hadn't seen them yet & they needed seperate responses, even though they were all in the same hollow mindset to 'attack'.

Thank God for ignore.

If you think there are no deals in this thread and it doesn't belong in this forum the proper procedure is to use the "Report this post" button in the OP to make mods aware. Not to sit here and complain endlessly.

So if you really feel this doesn't belong in this forum, please report it. After the mods are done laughing and the thread remains you will have a definitive answer and can move on.

For Christ's sake, your question was answered. The op is a wiki. It get's updated by the CAG community. Sometimes it get updated frequently, other times it can go a good while between updates.

We do not avoid updating it simply to spite you. If it hasn't been updated in a while, it's simply because nobody (including you) has taken the time to update the OP.

Wouldn't the apostrophe show ownership? It wasn't meant to be "it is". If I would have worded it "this thread's purpose", would that be better?

I asked a question, and when I came to see the answer (hoping to see, "it will be updated soon," or something similar), I was attacked. Therefore, I proceeded to defend my reason for asking the question. I have no intention of ruining a thread that others enjoy. I'm not that type of person, but i also don't sit back & take fire just because people were butthurt over a legit question. I would have left it alone, but why not ask the others why they feel the need to attack someone for making a query? Because it's fun to point & laugh? To be the room full of jocks picking on a lone nerd?

THANK YOU! I had to weed through insults to get that info before, and even though you are informing me out of spite, I really appreciate it. I just feel like I need to address when multiple people attack me for no reason. Sorry for existing.

5. Do Not Use an Apostrophe with Possessive Pronouns

Because possessive pronouns already show ownership, it's* not necessary to add an apostrophe:

• yours
• his
• hers
• its*
• ours
• theirs

EDIT: Also, please learn to use multi-quoting rather than posting consecutively, thanks.

I'm not trying to insult you, but are you aware of what you posted?

You asked when was the last time the OP was updated. An answer you can find on your own by checking the Wiki History in the OP.

Then you asked why this was even in the deals section and went on to complain.

These aren't legit questions, just abrasive complaints.

You quote my post above that but avoid my question. You then proceed to complain about this thread ignoring a question of yours.

Not in English. it's = contraction of "it is"; its = possessive form of it
This is one of the gotchas that most people know. Here are some more common ones to be aware of.

Yeah but I could load the SAME checkpoints from a cold metal boot of my system from start to gameplay faster than it took these cutscenes to "load" the checkpoint. That "loading" was a crock of shit.

Backlog. I've been successfully using my backlog to as a reason against upgrading my video card. I figure I'll be able to hold fast another year or two (at which point my PC will be 5-6 years old). I have to thank 360 and PS3 for holding back progress. =D
