Hard to say right now. I think they are going to give the final say about non-Sony published games to other publishers but they won't force anything. I know Sony charges a fee to play their games online if you buy them used, but I don't know if that will continue. Lots of gray area right now.HardTI wrote:Do we know for sure that there are no fees or online passes required with the PS4 used games? I know EA dropped the online pass thing, but not sure if it's just up to the developer now.

Ditto.
Got into Bioshock today; enjoying it so far, I love the story that's being put together in just the first five minutes. Had a tough time in the first Big Daddy fight, though (it felt cheap to keep respawning).

it's about to happen everywhere (as it should--hurts local biz and local govt and probably makes the sales tax more regressive than it already is)bada wrote:Amazon is gonna start charging tax in CT this November.

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I think it is on a state by state basis. There were some rumblings that the federal government was considering changing the Internet Commerce laws to charge sales tax in all states but I haven't heard much about it for awhile now.dkfan9 wrote:it's about to happen everywhere (as it should--hurts local biz and local govt and probably makes the sales tax more regressive than it already is)bada wrote:Amazon is gonna start charging tax in CT this November.

I'm playing through all the metal gear games right now. Started with MGS1 and now I'm onto the HD collection, picking up with MGS2. Holy fuck I forgot how much of a pussy Raiden is. I can hardly even watch the cutscenes
