I loved a racing game on the PC called POD (or POD Gold). It was a game played by many and updates would have ensured this game was still played today (yes it is possible, but you have to jump through hoops to get it to work). Also feedback from the game players could have been gathered and further paid updates could have been released, like the sports games (POD 09?).
Also when you know a developer / publisher will keep updating the game you are thinking of buying, then you will be more likely to buy that product. Unlike a rival that might support the software for 6 months & on its gaming servers.
I commend Blizzard for this and hope more companies follow their lead.
I have to say that this review is like most of the Edge Reviews I've seen over the last 12+ Months - over complicated.
They seem to waffle on about the subject, when the review could have been more conceise and to the point (and in plain english). For some reviews its best to have your dictionary ready too.
For this reason I cancelled my subscription. I keep hoping it will return to its glory days (I keep checking this site and the magazine in WH Smith, but still no improvement).
If games and movies don't develop some mutual respect, all we can expect are films that are really bad action games and games that are really bad films, says Steven Poole.
