Like I said though, I'll wait and see. | $60 for all 3 games (emphasis on 3 seperate games that are NOT one game essentially) being released over a period of AT LEAST 18 months just doesn't make much business sense. Sure if this is something they can just patch together and release all 3 within 6 months then $20 is appropriate, but I would almost be upset with Blizzard if they blundered so badly otherwise. The other option is an online monthly charge which would also be sad
(I would expect $120-150 for the whole series over a 3 year period) ($105 would be optimistic)
They are promising 26-30+ missions (with extras) for each which is what we saw in the expansion Broodwar which richly deserved its $30 price tag (MSRP back then) at release back in 1998... 10+ years later a full game (not just an expansion) deserves a larger price tag (if for nothing else besides inflation) unless they are going to treat it like WoW...
I am sorry if this discourages anyone's hopes, but I would expect nothing less than either of the above options. (And am hoping for the one time charge and am hoping the same for DIII).
Regardless, I still want to play the beta multiplayer!!! _________________ i just beat the internet.... the end guy was hard. |
