Willis is a good guy, pro-2A and pro-military.
Not gonna lie, it might just be time for the Die Hard franchise, to, well, die. |

Or maybe, as previously stated offshoot with Jack, but still, as much as a I liked Die Hard 4, it didn't feel like a Die Hard movie.
It felt like a good action movie that so happened to have John MacClane in it. |
Guys, read this list of how to not screw up making a Die Hard sequel

And never mind the fact that they'd be murdering the very idea of game rentals. |
Well to be fair, adjusted for inflation a copy of Turok 1 when it came out would cost something like 120 dollars.
The argument they put forward is they make no money on resales, which is stupid because neither does any other company that makes any other consumer product in the entire world. It seems to be based on the assumption that everyone who'd buy a second hand copy would be willing to pay full price if they didn't have the option of getting it second hand, when often people only buy second hand because it's cheap. It's like that thing they do where they imagine everyone who pirated a game would have bought it. I think it's mostly because of games most people are fed up of within a week like the copies of Medal of Honor that are still knocking around in bargain bins the world over. They're also basically trying to kill the rental market so you have to buy a game to figure out it's turgid garbage. |

But yeah, if they want to keep prices up, control distribution a bit better and make a good game. I'm perfectly okay with the currently system of buying online licenses. If they wanted to double the price of online licenses, I'd be fine with it, because online play are the meat and potatoes of most games now. (On the flip side, if I pay for the right to play online, then that means every time the servers for an old game are decommissioned, they're stealing from ME.) |
Wish I'd rented Medal of Honour: Beardfighter.
It was sitting on my shelf for... a year? Installed it, picked second highest difficulty, beat it in 4 hours, uninstalled it. I guess it's about the same money/time/level of entertainment as if I watched Act of Valour and Behind Enemy Lines 3 in theatres (which I didn't), but I have the preconception that I should not be finished with a game I started after lunch before it's time for supper. And now I can't get rid of it, because it's got that single-owner registration code. Or, if it doesn't(?), many games do, so nobody buys used PC games anymore. Which means nobody sells used PC games. Which means I don't play as many PC games. |
