[quote]It may be a gimmick and it may be purely for generating extra cash flow... Regardless, one of the things I love is the ability to customize my characters...greater flexibility translates to more fun for me. $10 for that gimmick is a small price for my fun.[/quote] Yes, I understand its psychology. I just think it is absurd. But, apparently it works. I will wait until its release, when I do not have to spend 20% more for the game.

You, not being a prophet of God, might have more trouble doing this, leading you to erroneous beliefs like that evolution could not have occured. I know I am a prophet of God because when I look into the mirror, I see the evidence for it. How else could I look so much

[quote]I hate their corporate mentality that sets out to milk as much much money from the consumer, by providing subpar service, a minimum quality for a maximum of price.[/quote] Yes, this is the major problem. The problem is that Americans eat up well-advertised mediocrity. MTV, AOL, certain movies (certain good movies DONT make it, eg. Shawshank Redemption didn't hit it big in the box office.), and Starbucks coffee are all great examples of Americans being highly conditioned spenders

I believe that the deal is bitter. EA is charging twice for the same content and relying on hype to make the sell. They should sweeten the deal. It is important that they do this because populating the game world with content for the release is important.

[quote]no it doesn't and I already showed you how. So you are just saying you want to ignore all the rest and pick out what fits your theory best. Is that fair?[/quote] That's what you are doing. I am a genuine prophet of God, so my opinion counts for more.

There were millions of Arabs in the surrounding countries, which is why I called the attacking force a group of disgrunted and disunited ragtag soldiers.

I believe that the developers behind SPORE should make the deal a little sweeter. Perhaps if they offered a $5 discount on the full version game from digital downloading and an exclusive developer interview/editor tutorial, this would be a little better. As it stands, it seems like a gimmick greedily designed to charge consumers twice. If you have an opinion, state what your opinion is and give a short explanation.

EA's influence hurts its games, but the company has aquired some really great publishers. For example, they bought Maxis, which makes most of the sandbox simulation games that a lot of people love.

[quote]I did not realize that Israeli history extended so far into the past. The Jews fought hard for their survival, and much of that fighting transpired without allied support. I appreciate the support of Christians, and that is a miracle.[/quote] Well, it seems I have overlooked one source of Jewish support. Anyway, my point is just that IT IS NOT A MIRACLE. Any miracle has an explanation. I gave you the explanation for the victory in 1948: more troops and

People always make the mistake of leaving perfection open to debate. But not with the bible. It says the land produced animals, and it means that.
