The video game industry is milking us. I mean, it always has, and with video games being luxury they absolutely have the right to do so, but lately, it's become disgusting. Making us pay for 'DLC' which is actually already on the disc, making us pay even more for multiplayer services, etc. You shouldn't have to be their milk cow. You have a choice, though.

You could keep bending over and let the video game companies do as they please, which, unfortunately, is what I expect most of you to do.

You can continue to be a cow.

Or you could show them that what they're doing isn't right, and refuse to buy their merchandise. If enough gamers realized that, the companies would have to consider our opinions.

Now we have the Wii-U, the DS and Wii's ****ed up cousin. Nintendo can just show us a system and make the cow run away.

The majority of gamers are idiots. They represent us in the eyes of the game companies/publishers. I vote with my wallet.

Too bad the majority of gamers will ultimetly bend down to forking out every last cent for a publishers/developers latest titles.

One that comes to mind is Capcom such as well...UMvC3, even after the Megaman thing people will still buy the games due to it having that iconic stature already regardless if they support a said company or not.

Or...

Switch to PC. Torrent
Oh, I got a great idea. Let's pirate every game that isn't multiplayer. Why pay anything when you can pay nothing? Then every publisher will push for more DRM, and that's what we all really want, right?

Oh wait, **** with really strict DRM ends up being more pirated, like Spore. Let's not make every future game like Spore and ignore nitewing.
