I think that if we are paying Sonic Team $10.00 a month to play this game, they should at least try and spend the money on finding ways to stop duping and hacking, but in all reality, I don't know what they do with our money, but I wouuld hope that they would start to spend it on research like that...

You're right. I agree.

EDIT: Prepare for flames and comments something along the lines of "Do you think PSO is all Sonic Team has to work on???!!!111"

Duping doesn't bother me that much. I just hope they will fix that fucking BSOD problem. Tonight I got four or five of them. Couldn't finish Challenge 5... sometimes couldn't even start it. u.u;;;

well, in a way I think that it is #1 on their list, but it seems nothing is being done at the moment, i.e. them comming out and saying that they are working on issues and what not.

The BSOD is because you're using PPPoE connected directly to the GC without using the ICS which you was previously using with problems :/

In this case it was sarcasm, but I think there is some kind of conspiracy going on.

You see, after we pay $10 a month, the Japanese gamers get what we call a "game pal" randomly selected by a computer, it's similar to a "pen pal" only in this deal, ST signs up a japanese gamer with one of the US gamers, every month they recieve $9 in the mail from their "game pal".

Don't you just love giving?

regarding the hl pricing differences. think about economic situations. they might pay less to us, but over there it might be of the same "value"

you'd have to price things differently depending on the situation to appeal to the consumers

Yeah, we did. I think one hears the same kind of rant whenever people have to pay for something.

Sonic Team is a business, and just like any other corporate business, they're in it for the money. The fuller the pockets, the better.

That's how I look at it anyway.

Their pockets arent gonna be full if they offer crap service to us...oh gee, February 18th and we still got Xmas lobbys!

Allow me to summarize.

-We pay way more then JP users (For whatever reasons) and get worse service. We dont get the same content, it takes longer for US ships to get new material, we get crappy service in general.

(No PSO's on the shelves, lack of BBA and DIAL UP MODEMS in store shelves, obviously no USA KB...)

But bitching about it is useless, if youve been around since the DC days you know that ST is gonna rob the US gamers from what they deserve. I guess if you feel the price is to high, just cancel your HL....which many ppl may consider if the ball doesnt geta' rollin.

They're not robbing you, you're giving them your money willingly. It's your choice whether or not to play the game.
