Freemium may be annoying, but from what I've heard, it's great for business.

EDIT: And it seems the free version still has a ton of content...

Cute. The game is failing and they're trying to save it.

Freemium can be good sometimes, though, like in TF2 - Anyone can get the full extent of the gameplay for free; going premium merely allows one to obtain cosmetic items. (It also allows for extra item storage, but really 50 slots is more than enough for all the weapons that you're actually going to use.)

....It's not failing. I have to say, I'm getting tired of everyone talking about how it's dying - it has above 500K current subscriptions.

1. An MMO needs a lot of subscribers to be successful. As an example, WoW has over 10 million! "But Canama," you protest. "WoW is the most successful MMO of all time! There are less successful ones that have gotten far less subscribers!"
2. Okay, fine. Consider that TOR was really, really, REALLY ####### expensive to make. As an example, it had over 200,000 voice-acted lines, which netted it the Guinness World Record for "Largest Entertainment Voice Over Project Ever". That alone ain't cheap, and there's the rest of the game to deal with too. Industry experts estimate that it had the single most expensive video game development cycle EVER, possibly in excess of $200 millon. 500,000 people paying $15 a month ain't gonna be profitable anytime soon.
3. The game has been bleeding subscribers like a hemorrhaging wound in a body that has subscribers instead of blood cells. At launch, it had a million subscribers; we're not 8 months in and it's already down to half. There's two words for that, and they are "catastrophic ####### failure" (okay that was three)
4. When a paid game goes F2P within a year of launch, that is never a good sign.

TOR is dying like a guy who just ate an arsenic-laced cupcake and shot himself in the head, while hanging himself and lighting his hair on fire.

On the subject of MMOs, though, I'm looking forward to Planetside 2, a F2P MMOFPS that's currently in closed beta.

OK, I'm ending the SWTOR discussion now. The argument that SWTOR is dying is one of the few things people can do on the internet that makes me genuinely angry. (The other is people misusing the term "OCD")

On another note, New Super Mario Bros 2 will be available as a download OR a game card. I'll probably download it. Nice to see Nintendo adding that option.

The only good thing about the shows in question, most of the time, is when people start singing. And even then it's iffy; if Justin Bieber's anywhere near the stage, the channel will be muted and changed.

Say what you like about Justin Bieber, but he makes an excellent Acceptable Target. Tongue
