do you even have one good reason why the cheapest version should get extra content free (being a whining **** doesn't count btw)? not supporting ****ty, overpriced dlc btw just that if one platform gets it free all should or if one pays then all should

There aren't royalty costs on the PC, and the PC version generally gets the shaft in terms of quality nowadays. Furthermore, PC gamers have become accustomed to not paying for DLC; games that give out free DLC typically sell better (see: the early Unreal Tournament games, for example, and almost any other game that offered free map packs). There are no restrictions in terms of quality control that PC DLC has to go through as well, meaning they don't have to spend money having to redo areas if they don't meet the requirements of Live or PSN... I'd say those are some good reasons it should get extra content free, just off the top of my head.

no royalty cost is why pc games are always cheaper, i still dont see why they should get content console gamers pay for for free. loyalty hardly matters IW/Activision shat on pc owners with mw2 but they still lapped it up, to prove that point someone posted a picture of the steam dedicated server protest group and almost all of them were playing the game :huh:. i also doubt console quality control is really that strict or expensive (compared to what a game like MW2 makes from its dlc)

Whew, really had a good time today and yesterday. My friends and I started playing Team Deathmatch Express instead of Domination. While I don't get as many kills with TDME and my KDR is less, my friends have helped me rack up a 28 game win streak. On average, the skill level seems to be lower which has made things a lot easier.

I hate to say, but I think I've got bored of MW2. Just when I was starting to get better at it as well.

It's just you can only play the online for so long without getting bored, and unless you're a COD ######, there's really nothing here for anybody else. I think that it's just an epically average game and was far too overhyped. It's as though the devs don't need to try hard anymore because they know, no matter how bad or good they make it, it'll still make millions for them. Which I suppose is good business for them, but that's not what games should be about.

Went back to Uncharted 2, playing through the story on hard.

Yeah, my bad. Blind, that is :D Was on the previous page.

I'm close but I doubt I'll ever get it. Right now I'm missing airplane graveyard and the three from echo class.

Echo just requires lots of planing and tactical stuff to take them down. More of setup and then retreat blasting them juggernauts. And lots of luck :D

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      But we are talking about Elon Musk, no AT&T... I know big companies are evil, but Elon and his companies are in another level which is much more dangerous.
    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.

      You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂

      Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
