Now that Make Sense

From the big boss who is responsible for World of Warcraft comes the latest comment which we gamers suspect might be the case all along :DRM is a waste of time.

Brick Gamers 45 - Gaming Kids

Was this what your childhood was like? :) Chances are, unless you're a kid now (or recently), your childhood will look nothing like this - or did you? ;) People use to warn parents about what kids will pick up from TV, these days it's probably what kids will pick up from playing games!

But is it that bad a thing they learn things from games? What if it adds to their knowledge of the world? People are often quick to criticise that which they do not understand, and just like how the famous saying goes for "guns don't kill people, people do" and "technology is a double-edge sword", perhaps people shouldn't be so quick to question the games that kids play today...

Brick Gamers 44 - Do you feel like 2nd-class?

What do you think? Do modern games make you feel like the gaming company doesn't respect you? Is it a Far Cry (pun not intended) from the glory days of gaming where the customer (or gamer in this case) was placed first as how all companies should be doing and the very idea businesses should be following as per original intention? Or has the excessive 90's and post-Millennium trend caught up in the corporate world which has resulted in the 2000s decade of indulgences by the elite few which in turn resulted in the bottom-level users being short-changed for their investment? With DRM (Digital Rights Management) and today's other anti-piracy measures, even being a legitimate consumer may reward you with rudeness when all you want to do is play the game you purchased legally. So is it worth going straight in the end?
