Thanks for that downloader link, btw, it will save me some time! I should be on tomorrow after lunch, taking the afternoon off to let my shitty knees heal up a little.

Watching the intro movie just made me sad that we still have to put up with this 1998-era pixelated-to-hell Bink crap for FMV compression.

Man, Best Buy can suck a dick. Took nearly 25 minutes just to trade in two games. The dude behind me was pissed, and I don't blame him. Say what you want about Gamestop, but it takes all of about 2 minutes to trade games there. Anyway, I bought this piece.

I don't remember the last time I heard someone tell a story about going to Best Buy and having a good experience. Sadly my parents love the place, and I can't convince them to try newegg $:-\$

The past 5 years has seen a lot of formerly good companies take on shitty business plans for no good reason, whether it's Best Buy's "DOOD WE'RE YER PHONE HEADQUARTERS!" plan or Netflix's "what people really want is for us to become a shitty cable channel" scheme.

I got Max Payne Mobile with points from freemyapps and it's about to finish downloading. I'll play it for a bit on my iPhone until it releases. I played some Choplifter HD on Steam and it's amazingly good.

Yeah, having no luck with the downloader even after forwarding all the ports in windows firewall. It's been going at like 1k/s all night. Never made it past 1%

Will try again in a few days. If it's still not working, will not be too happy. Why couldn't this just be on Steam or Origin

It is a pretty bad launch. Can't play the game until two hours after you get it. Try to log in? Can't log in.

Bebpo · « **Reply #457 on:** May 15, 2012, 03:26:23 AM »

I reset my computer and now the installer works and is downloading at 2.5MB/s

Probably should have done that 3 hours ago. Oh well, if it's done in the morning, will try it out tomorrow night.

They have bazillion dollars from WoW.

They have HUGE experience with massive, always online games with WoW.

They have immensive online infrastructure with hundreds of server farms.

They can estimate with 99% accuracy how many players will buy the game and try to log in @ 0 hour.

Yet they fuck this up. Every. Fucking. Time.

GG Blizzard

The initial serge will die down after a day or two, they cant be arsed to deploy the extra servers for just those days as it would be cost effective. And honestly with Blizzard die hards, they can get away with it.

Himu · « **Reply #462 on:** May 15, 2012, 03:33:21 AM »

Apparently it took the eu servers about 40 minutes post-launch to get stable enough for people to log in. we're 30 minutes post-USA launch so dicks crossed

You US dudes are still up @ almost 3 AM?

That's some dedication. You could be sleeping. Better idea would be to set the timer on 6 AM and get 1 hour of godly Diablo 3 before work.

I work late shift and just got off, I would like to waste the next however many hours of my life playing the game but that apparently isn't gonna happen.
