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

      Hello, Were you using a product or service from one of the companies affected by the Klue data breach?  See https://klue.com/blog/an-update-on-recent-klue-security-incident for the company's public statement.  That blog post does not list affected customer. From looking around at reports, I created this list: Gong HackerOne Huntress Insurity Jamf LastPass OneTrust Recorded Future ReliaQuest Salesforce Snyk Sprout Social Tanium It is likely there are other companies affected as well.

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

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
