Let's do something, even if it doesn't work.

Which is why I find people saying how evil EA is comical. If they want to try and do something about it, don't go after EA or whoever for doing it, go to Congress for allowing it.

Yes, but I'm just saying Halo doesn't exactly work, because you do have another platform you can get it on.

Gasp, are you suggesting people become proactive against the US government?

Okay how about I use Zelda or Mario Brother? I think it is not fair that Zelda is only on Nintendo and PS2 gets Ratchet and Clank.

If they wanted to try and do something about it instead of complaning all the time.

I know what you meant man. I was just having a little fun.

Oh it can be, and you're doing a damn fine job of it.

Please tell me tha last time somebody held a gun to your head and "forced" you to buy a particular game? Because if it really did happen, then that's the person you have a damn good case against.

Sooner or later, everyone will just accept it and move on. It happened on the PC years ago. EA has been the only football game on PC since about 1998, when the competition figured "Why bother?"

PC football gamers look at the angry consollers now and laugh. They've been here before, and have dealt with the "1 choice" thing for seven years now on their platform.

The people I really feel bad for are those who play a game that gets licensed to a publisher who may not even make a game for their system. Who says that MLB 2K6 will be on PC? There's lots of PC fans of MVP. Its especially bad for the PC crowd, because EVERY game on PC is considered "3rd party"- and VC has never shown aspirations to even MAKE a PC game. They've hinted they "might", but we'll see.

But that's the nature of the beast. Nothing you can do. Many people are all fired up, but they'll get over it. There's really nothing that can be done. Its all legal, just like Fossen said.
