well i didnt really expect that 6 months into a new game, that they would release a new game within another 6 months -I didnt think i was playing WOW

Post 14

WoW was released in November 2004, and has since had two paid for expansion packs. No expansion pack was compulsory and you can still play the Vanilla game. There have also been many free content expansions.

What are you talking about exactly?

Post 15

I will pay for L4D2.
That said, I was hoping for more DLC for the first one.

All i was saying initially is i got L4D a month ago.
At 6 months along from initial release, did not expect it to see another game punched out so soon.

However the frypan looks fun

still dont see how you connected that to WoW

I'm with the dude in the ars technica article OD posted - there is TOO much being added into this new one. Nice to see Gabe didn't like it but let them do what they wanted anyway. Personally i think this is awesome - most non MMO games nowadays seem to be throwaways anyway - play it like buggery for a few months then uninstall. to me it feels like they're just ensuring they have a followup ready for when players make that jump to something else :)

Well princess, ive just got this great new game i really like playing it, but before the excitment is even gone the next version is soon to be out and as people like to play the latest and greatest games, it looks like i may have to pay for it all over again, as with the exception of CS1.6 most people move on and dont go back to the older games.

There for I have likened this next purchase which seems pretty soon to me in a similar situation as to paying for to play WOW over and over, regardless of whether the expansion packs came out is that OK

And if its not OK i dont really care. :p

Post 23

way too early for valve to release another left 4 dead.

Post 24

i disagree. also, they're hardly the first to do it - the Battlefield franchise for eg: Vietnam was 2004, BF2 was 2005, and BF 2142 was 2006

Post 25

And then they made you pay for stupid expansions. What was the term they used for them?
BF2 had Euro Forces and Armoured Forces
BF2142 had Northern Strike
And if you installed them in the wrong order you couldn't play them online.

Post 26

BF2 SF was awesome though....

I don't think it looks very good, tbh :/
