I think he means TA. I think the thing is though, this is gone get worst for a while. I mean, people are attracted to and come to ios because of the well underpriced games. That is why the mentality for everyone who was not here from the beginning is going to be similar. Also, a lot of people playing ios games either do not play consoles (and understand the price difference), or feel that digital download games should be underpriced. It would either take a lot or might be too late for this mentality to change
Ask a friend who isn't into iPod gaming and doesn't know you TA username to read the pages with C. Hannum's posts (couple pages before 136). Don't give him any opinions, just ask him to read it. Then ask him which posters acted inappropriately. Suggestion: Mods should put a sticky in the games forum telling people not to talk about prices and include an explanation on why they can't talk about prices. Would probably save a lot of grief.
I just bought this game 5x and gift wrapped them. Thanks for the great price on this . Thought it would be at least $19.99.
The directors of the firm hired to continue the credits after the other people had been sacked, wish it to be known that they have just been sacked. Bearing Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti...
You're clearly forgetting what kind of setting we're in and that CH had hundreds of posts prior. You're comparing him to someone who doesn't play iPod games? Really? Work on the logic. Better yet, figure out what thread this is first. When a mod throws a post in here, they're already deeming it as trash. No post can be desecrated to a level lower than what a mod has already done by moving a post here.
Look, I'm not trying to start an argument with you. I think you've misunderstood me. I'm telling you to get someone who doesn't play iPod games so that they have no opinions on the appstore prior to reading (for a more objective point of view). Reread your own post and you'll know what I'm talking about. Would you disagree that you're being disproportionally aggressive considering the contents of my post? Was the statement that I need to work on my logic really necessary? And a sticky would save mods a lot of work, judging by the size of this thread. Who cares if someone's post is "desecrated" or not, this is a gaming website, not medieval Japan. (joke, don't get offended)
Is this the last question for me? Well, ok, I'll answer it. Injuwarrior is right: He expressed what a lot of reasonable people are feeling lately. I don't care anymore. I really can't take price whining shit like this seriously. I am just amused about your wry notions. The big Apple has worms, and these worms are gnawing at it from the inside. Why do you think is this thread in existence? There has to be a place for the mods... they pull the worms out of the healthy apples and put them into this trash can. So, it's entirely up to you all to decide if you chose a) symbiosis - a mutualistic relationship between individuals, where both individuals derive a benefit or if you chose to be a b) parasite and benefit at the expense of the other, the host. Maybe eventually killing it. Sadly, the parasites on TA are breeding like rabbits lately, while the number of symbionts is decreasing. I'm just a bit sorry for our hosts, the developers. This said, discussions on TA - especially about App Store prices - are useless. You just can't argue with idiots - they'll bring you down to their level then beat you with experience. My conclusion: sometimes you win when you give up something. That's it,
I'm genuinely confused, how come Vovin agrees with Injuwarrior when I've been making the same remarks? Meh, must be my english.
Lol...meh. On the bright side, there's a ton of new releases tonight. So..how long before people attack Chaos Rings Omega?
Thanks for incorporating biology into your already muddled outlook; really insightful. And way to duck out when the going got tough, having a perfect example of an arguably overpriced game (Two Worlds II) thrown your way. And feeling sorry for our poor "hosts" - the devs, you really have a misguided outlook. Poor Rovio, poor Clickgamer, poor Square Enix, poor Gameloft, poor Popcap, poor Com2Us, poor Halfbrick, poor Lima Sky, poor Capcom, poor EA, poor Backflip studios, poor Cave, poor Donut Games, poor id software, poor Firemint, poor hundreds of indie devs who have my hard earned money in their pockets. Cry me a freaking river. LOL! Don't let the proverbial TA door hit you on the way out.
He might have been referring to the majority of hosts... who don't get your money. Anyone heard of ttursas? I've got all of their games, one of my favourite teams. They're not developing for iOS anymore because both Apple and their customers treated them like crap.
I had to look up the dev to see what games they have. I do own Perfect Balance: Harmony on my 3rd gen touch but never played it due to my game backlog (my backlog's pretty bad, I just played Tiny Wings for the first time a month ago despite getting it in February - fantastic game by an indie dev BTW). Nor do I recall if I bought it or got it for free. Its unfortunate if that dev was making quality games and folded, but this is a cutthroat business. You can't always blame the consumers, the market is super saturated.
Vovin!!!! BABY COME BACK!!!! really sorry to see you go. Been great TAing with you, especially that awesome easter sale thread. I have to say, the average IQ here on TA just took a major hit. :'( Yea, IK, haven't been using heavily for too long so I don't know a ton of the past here. Hope you're still around every once in a while, seeing as there ARE still uninfected areas (like the lounge, what should I get thread is pretty pure, and certain other threads, etc) and we can always use another mature opinion here.
To be honest this one was more Apple's fault. They effectively broke their game by refusing to let through an update due to content that had been in the game since the very beginning and previously passed through without a hitch. Having rules is fine, but the least they can do is be consistent with them. I hope he's not gonna pull a Big Albie on us. Disappear but tease us with the odd post from time to time. If you want to post, just come back properly I need respectable people around here or I'll get bored!
