  1. Greedy game makers


    I bought call of duty advanced warfighter last week, completed it last night and though hey I'll try zombies but ohhhh noooo I need to purchase a season pass at 34 quid so even after I have bought the game I have to pay another price of game to play a game
    mode none of the other cods have been like this it doesnt even give u a few maps for free I honestly find this pathetic and greedy and hope future cods are not like this, do these developers not earn enough like?

    Yours Sincerely

    An unhappy xbox one gamer

    If I sell a used book, the makers get no profit.

    If I sell a used car, the makers get no profit.

    If I sell a used Computer, the makers get no profit.

    If I sell a used music CD, the makers get no profit.

    If I sell my used clothes, the makers get no profit.

    If I sell ANYTHING I own second hand in the world, the makers get no profit.

    Do you know why it is like this? It's because when I buy a product it is MINE to do with what I want! I OWN it, it is MINE!

    Why should the gaming industry get what no one else gets in the world? It's because they are money hungry greedy self-entitled fat-cats!

    [/quote]Thats not true. Car manufacturers make money off every car for the entire life of said car. They make parts that you can only get through them. They intentionally make cars harder and harder to work on now a days simply so you have to
    go to their dealerships just to get basic maintenance for some brands. Using the car industry as an example makes for a very flawed argument.


    [/quote]Exactly

    ok so car parts are like DLC which since that exists used games shouldn't be blocked.

    Greedy game makers

    People will say that they are a business and they are just trying to make a profit, and that's true, but they're really taking the mickey out of people now-a-days.

    Remember like 3,4 and 5 years ago all we heard about was how the used games market was killing developers. Now we don't ever hear of it because of them milking us. Even if they are making the money back that they used to lose because of used games, they
    are going too far. Charging €40 for a season pass on Batman Arkham Knight is a prime example of greed. Selling unfinished games and selling the rest to us later for about €90.00 is all the rave now.

    Used games and why their bad

    This is just ridiculous, the ultimate test of ownership is your ability to sell it. When I sell my car I don't give a percentage back to the maker. M$ wants to institute a system where we are essentially renting games with no due date and at full price.
    This is nothing more then a greedy company trying to squeeze every cent out of the consumer they can.

    A game maker

    It also depends if they are still supporting that game or not, Companies eventually do stop supporting games and updating them so they can focus on the newer games.
