They're putting in game ads into games you've already paid for :S Pretty stupid IMO and i wont ever support a game that does so other than the spalsh screen. I mean on a realistic game based on the real world they can get away with placing coke cans in game etc etc. but  thats about it really.



Humph they say they need to charge more for games and yet they're putting ads in them :( I used to love Counter-Strike but had to quit cause of what they did to that..........

    they've been saying for the longest time that they were thinking about it   IE: we're waiting for the contract.

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

    I wasnt aware that there was a reason TO deal with Codemasters before this.

        Overlord isn't a bad game, and that is a CM game, though I avoid their MMOs like the plague.

     

         Isn't it kind of funny that all their P2P MMOs are suddenly going F2P? You get what you pay for.

    I have to agree, Codemasters has been garbage from day 1. Overlord is good but I imagine CM had little to nothing to actually do with it.

    I loved Overlord and DiRT.

    Although DiRT did have some adverts in it, I was kind of expecting it from a game like that. I mean its just so easy to place them.

    People actually play Codemaster games? On purpose?

    No, but its quite ironic that you ask "people play codemasters games on purpose?" when its one of the most succesfull publishers in Europe. thats like asking "Is anybody actually using windows"? its lame.

    What's lame is that you recognize the irony in the statement yet fail to realise that it was intentional. Grow a sense of humor, imo.

    I didn't fail to realise it was intentional, nice going with the assumptions. Here, I'll clear it up for you:



    I didn't find the joke funny, its overused, generic, old.

    "People actualy use [insert product here]"? oh, the originality.

     

  • TheodorykTheodoryk Member Posts: 1,453

    Judging by your first reply, you didn't realise it was a joke at all. Nice attempt at backpeddling though. Let's argue about your inability to recognise humor some more, its laik sooo impotant to defend ur kred wen u fukup, amiright?

    You are always right, never wrong. Everybody else's opinions are not worthwhile to you if they dont go along with youre own. You comb these forums daily, visiting every section there is basically, pissing on every fire hydrant and in every flowerbed you can, making sure people know you are here and what you are about. Not to mention your hypocritical humor scale is pure bullshit.

    We know you are here buddy, we read you LOUD and CLEAR.

    Hey Gameloading, If you didnt find a someone's joke funny, then heres a lesson on proper forum etiquitte; not only is it unpolite and nasty, but you should just keep your mouth shut. It isnt anything constructive. Dont you have something better to do on these forums than comment on someone's joke?

    By the way, I found it funny. It gave me a giggle.

    **INSERT GENERIC OLD AND OUTDATED NOT VERY FUNNY BUT WAS AIMED AT BEING FUNNY PIC HERE**

    You like what I did there? I pulled a "Gameloading" out. Somebody make a funny joke, but then I took it too seriously in a failed attempt to be a big internet man, and tried to make the poster of the pic look like an immature jackass. Unfortunately I fail at this, what do we call this, class? A GAMELOADING.

    "omgz, Gameloading cleared somethin up he must totally not understood my hilarious joke".


    It wasn't supposed to be a "hilarious joke", it was an offhand comment on the direction this particular thread was taking. It was meant to be mildly humorous, at best, and I honestly put less time into thinking about the content of my post than I did actually typing it. Then you came in with your dry rebuttle to something you took as a serious comment against Codemasters. Because you're a fan boy. And now you're going to engage in some perpetual argument about nothing with me to save face. Because Gameloading is NEVER WRONG and must see every lame argument TO THE BITTER END. Ur so kul

    I'm gonna jump on the bandwagon here.

    Gameloading smells, and he is ugly, and can't read good.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

    Im not going to argue about the success of the company. My comment was at the above quoted, where the postr gave the "i thought it was funny" post. It was typed as if you thinking the joke not being funny was fact.
