Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Oh crap and remake of Halo Bring the total up to $400....
If your going to be dishing out that kind of money check with Amazon. They usually have some good deals, and that is where I got my NCAA 12 game. It had same day shipping after it was all said and done it cost 60.94 or something plus they gave a 20 credit towards my next purchase, which will be madden which has the same deal so Madden for $40 plus same day shipping plus another $20 off for my next game which will probably have another $20 off. So I would look at Amazon see if they have any deals for those games. Only down side is it might come in the afternoon so no midnight game play, but since I work I like the cheaper games :thumb:

Yeah, in this case I'm gonna have to do some of that. I could afford to spend that much but it'd feel like I just got sucker punched with an iron fist. I'll also have to pick a couple games that get put on the back burner. Normally Dead Island would be that but it comes out in early September and it's been so long since any good game has come out that I'm gonna just jump all over it unless it's getting crappy reviews.
The art style is almost identical to Borderlands as well. Just in general when I first saw it I thought of HD Borderlands. Is the game fully co-op? If so I'll for sure be picking it up....
This is gonna be an expensive fall. It looks like I'm gonna be buying Dead Island, Battlefield 3, Skyrim, Rage, Saints Row 3, and Arkham City.
That's like $360 bucks I'm gonna have to pick a couple to put on the back burner.
They haven't said much about it, but I think I read that coop has its own campaign where you play as Authority soldiers. You know like Splinter Cell: Conviction.
Only Fall games I'll get right away are Rage, Skyrim, and Halo CE. Everything else I'll get later or for Christmas, like Revelations, Tekken, and probably Arkham City a little before.
Is the coop 2 players only? That's better than no coop, but Borderlands playing with 4 people was pretty awesome.
Is this game open world/free roam?? Hard to tell.
The coop is only 2 players AFAICT. If there were more than that, I'm sure it'd cause some frame rate issues. Plus, I actually like 2 player coop the most because it involves more team work and tactics.
And yes, the game is open world -- You can freely roam around and do side quest, races , etc. or you can follow the main story.
Post-apocalyptic shooter will discourage used game sales by curtailing single-player content; creative director Tim Willits calls himself a "big proponent" of always-online DRM.
Always-on digital rights management and online passes are two trends that sparked an abundance of gamer rage lately, but only one will actually find its way into the game Rage. In an interview with Eurogamer, creative director Tim Willits confirmed that the post-apocalyptic shooter would lock out some content for people who bought the game used but wouldn't require a constant online connection.
Since when did letting people into a sewer become an incentive?
Instead of taking the standard online pass approach of locking out the game's multiplayer modes unless a user enters a one-time code that comes with new copies or pays a $10 fee, Rage will rope off some single-player content. Diligent players will come across sewer hatches in the world of Rage that take them to new missions. If those players bought the game new (and bothered to download the associated content), those hatches will be open to them.
"[M]ost people never even see it," Willits said of the hatches. "I can tell you, some people will buy Rage, download that, and still never set foot in those things. They just won't. I think that's fair. It's cool. It's outside the main path. We're not detracting from anything. But I know some consumers, when you can't avoid it, then you get a little touchy subject."
As for DRM that requires a constant connection, the sort that was recently confirmed for Diablo III and championed by Ubisoft, Willits said that won't be used in Rage. However, he did call himself a "big proponent" of the idea and believes a game as eagerly anticipated as Diablo III will go a long way to making that approach acceptable for gamers.
"If you have a juggernaut, you can make change," Willits said. "I'm all for that. If we could force people to always be connected when you play the game and then have that be acceptable, awesome."
Willits acknowledged that some people would continue to resent the need to be online in order to enjoy a single-player game, but he said it would wind up being better for everyone involved. He cited automatic updates as a particular benefit to the scheme.
Rage is set to launch on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC on October 4. For more on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage.
Can't say I'm upset, you get what you pay for. It's not like they're locking out half the single player, it's only a few manholes where you can loot and raid a few bandit camps that will be missing. It has no effect on the main story, and you're not required to visit them to beat or play the game. I'll be buying the game new regardless so I really don't care.
If this becomes a new standard in DRM, I wonder how companies like GameStop and Gamefly will respond. The online passes are already causing a hit, this would make things even more worse for them.
Yes, and we are the customers getting bent over for the stupid codes. Idk if they think its goin to help sales imo it will just piss people off and have them stop buying those games.
EA is the worst though GOD they piss me off good thig im not getting Madden this year.
Cant wait till FIFA is being made by someone else.
EDIT wow post before this one got deleted looks like i just double posted sweet life lol

Yeah I deleted it because I contradicted myself in the last few sentences lmao.
Basically, I agree, but it's better that it's nothing substantial that's being left out for people who buy the game used. I'd worry if it becomes a standard, and companies like Activi$ion and EA/EA $ports starts doing it. Like in Madden, imagine if you buy the game used, all AFCW teams were unplayable. I'm not buying Madden this year anyways, but just an example.
This was posted a few months ago, I completely overlooked it. This just makes me want the game even more. Can't wait for October 4th! Skyrim coming out a month later makes it even more exciting.
Looks really good. iD managed to get all versions running at 60FPS while maintaining really great visuals. It's amazing what they were able to accomplish considering the limitations. The game looks fun, and has a lot more to offer than your average FPS. Can't wait to pick it up on Tuesday.
Have to say that I wasn't impressed initially, but they've really cleaned up the combat and made the guns look satisfying (and the knife/axe in the head).
I hope they don't F me when I buy it used after I finish Skyrim.

If you're buying the game used, the only thing that will be missing are a few manholes where you can go and raid bandit camps for loot.
It's definitely not anything that will make or break your enjoyment with the game.
This was originally supposed to hold me over until Skyrim, but by the looks of it; I'm going to still be playing a lot of this even when I do get Skyrim. It's going to be tough, because both RAGE and Skyrim are games in which you need to spend a lot of time with to fully enjoy.
