I'm sorry, but, if you think competitive gamers makes up even 1 percent of the gaming demographic, YOU'RE delusional. We all get it, you think SC is trash, blah blah blah (no one's forcing you to stay, by the way), but to twist this into some stupid shit to fit your own narrow-minded view is childish.
Honestly, and you can fuckin' quote me if you want, THERE'S NO SINGLE GAME.PERIOD.IN THE UNITED STATES (With the exception of a couple of MMORPG's whose DEVELOPERS have the ability to turn their revenue into profit through their fanbase and the very nature of them and, in addition, actually have people who pay them on a month to month basis, which is, of course, why they have no only the means but the reasoning to frequently patch anything that may hurt their player base.). I mean, you want to keep people playing but most people, outside of the hardcore players, don't play for long and, even still, you can satiate them by bringing out a new title as opposed to paying for frequent patches (which, by the way, don't generate any real profit worth pursuing).
And, really, go ahead and pull something out of your ass like ARCADE PATCHES (which, by the way, arcade owners have to pay for and you usually get through, that's right, the form of a new fuckin' game).
Honestly, I can't even remember why I replied to that fuckin' nonsense. 'Yeah...it outside it...but they COULD make money off of...I dunno...merchandise or some shit...' if that isn't some of the silliest shit I've read here. I'd LOVE to see you manage a business.
I mean, honestly, there may be a bit of profanity in this, but some of you all are just the biggest bunch of fuckin' babies. Honestly, I'd love to see a website full of all of the people who bitch about their respective ex-game and just see the chaos that ensues when someone badmouth what they feel is a suitable replacement (or, you know, just as good, just people who have nothing better to do than bitch, just fuckin' leave this site).

Oh yeah, and just to hit the whole Hannah Montana thing, most businesses, when they've taken a lost or have the potential to increase profit, bundle items together.

While we're at it, I'd just love to see the old IW, for instance,
BusinessExec, "Well...we have these hardcore FPS players complaining about the respawn time, the power of killstreak rewards, and respawn time...we have to do something drastic...for the very life of our game LOOMS in their hands!!!"
Random Joe, "But, sir, they could easily just play Hardcore team deathmatch!"
BusinessExec, "But most tournaments go by the default mode! We MUST remove these things!
Random Joe, "But they could easily make their own tournaments and customize the rulings. While it, by trends of the players of the game, will probably have less people enter than the normal ones, they'll at least get what they want!"
BusinessExec, "What's gotten into you, Johnson! Damn it...these heroes among men who'll probably buy our games regardless have a voice...a voice that must be heard! And I'll be DAMNED if you and your logic and big fancy degree will get in the way of it!"
