^ I support the above post! This community needs more whiskey passing! 

And yeah they ditched the "unlocking" it seems, it used to be based on notoriety (or was that a gamemode?)

I dunno, I got into it just recently .

Also, something slightly less important: BF3 is for free on Origin for a couple of days. If you want a non-broken game (hey BF4), there you go.

^ Pathetic, they are really trying hard to move the old Battlefield communities to their new titles.

I´m currently re-living my nerdy teenage years by playing Magic 2014. It´s currently for free on Steam until Monday and only costs around 3 Euros. So far it´s tons of fun and I´d suggest it to anyone who´s into card games.

Here's something I would like to recommend: Fistful of Frags!

It's freez and made of awesomz so put on some Ennio Morricone and pass the whiskey.

15/10 would pass the whiskey again!!

A slight step back to Fistful of Frags.. I played this mod very intensively from 2009 to 2011 and just recently started playing the standalone version.

The mod is a thousand times better but I understand they are adding more things from the mod. Very monotone at the moment but still great fun. I really miss the unlocking. If you were able to rack a few kills you used to be able to unlock a nice bowler and a new revolver or shotgun but nowadays it's just whoever finds the chests first.

Great game, needs some of its mod glory.

I just noticed that there is a 66% discount on the sims 3 and all xp packs on steam. I looked at the price, and it costs 183€ for a "full game" °__°. This means if you buy it without discount, it will set you back a w00ping 554€. Has EA lost it's mind ?

And this is why people torrent.

Their expansion packs are priced at full medium-sized retail game of $30 something when new. To be fair, they do offer new game-altering mechanics and storyline, besides the usual items. But still very expensive. They also offer "stuff packs," which are priced at a whopping $20 for what basically are just "stuffs," which sometimes includes new object-specific mechanics.

Not to mention the Sims Stores micro-transactions, which are randomly required to open this and that in-game.

Simcity is also modeled after Sims series, tidbits like a single custom building will set you back $1.

Then we have Battlefield, which have unlocks, icons, booster, and shitbits. Then NFS, FIFA, Madden, and all sports titles are following the same model. NFS is selling packaged cars at $10-20. It is all in EA's business model. I hope they won't pick other established franchise, God forbid.

Next stop: Command & Conquer series.

Someone told me August, but I read October. I might be wrong though.
