[quote name='Kirin Lemon']Ah, I totally forgot about this, and the year is almost up. So what's the deal on tiers this year? People need 1000+ points for Ultimate, right? For those of us who got Ultimate last year, how does that even work? There aren't nearly enough *new* games to come out since then to get us to Ultimate two years in a row.[/QUOTE]
I managed to get Ultimate both this year and last year on the same account (so no duplicate registrations). There was certainly enough new releases this year, you just had to register each platform for a few of them. For the record, there's still about five games I haven't registered (Tomb Raider, FFXIV, FFXIV CE, Front Mission PC, FFXI PC), so there is actually points in excess of 1000 this year.
