The lights are on
3. Cheaters
Unfortunately, most people have encountered these people at one time or another, especially on PC games. There is nothing more annoying than a guy who you put an entire round into only to see them pick you off with a headshot. They always seem to know where you are at all times, where you spawn. The worst part is that you know they're enjoying this, they're ruining your game, and that there is no practical way to stop them.
2. Lag
Lag is annoying because you know you shot that guy first, but his internet is faster than yours, so technically he shot first.
1. Bobby Kotick
I must say that, from a business standpoint, I respect Bobby's ability to generate money for Activision. That being said, it still doesn't make me dislike him anymore from a gamer's standpoint, as most of that money comes from us.
Note what he has said in the past:
"The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games."
"you know if it was left to me, I would raise the prices even further.”-On peripheral prices.
Among other things, he also said that he wanted to instill pessimism and fear into the hearts of Activision employess.
He also prefers putting out yearly titles with big names rather than innovate or at least improve those games.
It's a good thing that EA is still here to stop him from overtaking the entire game industry.
And that smile...Why is he always smiling...
Well, all Bobby Kotick is in it for is the money. I bet he doesn't even like video games, he's a sadistic money *** who saw what video games would be before many other people and he was able to get himself at the head of Activision.
He even looks like a rat as well.
Well I believe you have Lag down pat!
Wow Bobby Kotick sounds like he has a serious case of doucheitis. And I hate lag and cheaters with the fiery passion of a thousand sons. Curse you Bill Gates and your crappy internet!
I think lag I would have to hate
I hate that stupid SMILE!!!!!!!!! Bobby Kotick is like a gold digger. but TheDarkKnigh7 but it sweetly. so many heatshots lost for cheating. Cuz thier flying in thin air!!!!!!
I dont know about the last 1
Sounds like you based the blog on Modern Warfare 2 problems. I HATE FREAKIN LAG AlSO!!!
For those of you wondering about Koticks philosophy, he definitely does not have the best interest of gaming/gamers at heart. I don't expect a CEO of a company to be all flowers and sunshine, but if he had total control, gaming would be freakishly expensive, crap quality, and just about everything negative about gaming.
The description of Kotick in the blog is completely true, and it is rather saddening to think that he gets big bucks at the end of the year (especially this one, MW2).
i can't stand cheaters!!!!! they ruin the game for other people
Bobby Kotick= antichrist. End of story. Wanting to charge more than the price I pay for a game... wow.
I'm gonna have trouble sleeping tonight. Bobby Kotick (and the cold weather that is going to bring a snowstorm over the weekend) is sending shivers down my spine...
I think Bobby Kotick embodies all three problems. Cheating - taking away all of our money to play the exact same game over and over again. Lag - "lagging" in customer service, morality, and down right humanity. Bobby Kotick - by being Bobby Kotick.
I would have to add bugs and overpriced DLC.
Bobby Kotick is an idiot. Don't rule your company by striking fear into their hearts. That's just horrible.
The hackers in Metroid Prime Hunters pissed me off.
I hate hackers so much, at least they can't get into consoles anymore, I think. I agree with lag as well, because every time I played World at War and shot a guy way before he did, he would somehow win the battle only to prove that he's got a wired connection, which is a punch to the gut to me. And Kotick, well I would say the same thing about Microsoft, but since he's the Activision money ***, I guess it makes sense to talk about him since they make games for all consoles instead of just Microsoft. Seriously, don't they have enough money where they are? Why can't it just be like the old games. Remember Halo 3 before the noobs took it over? It was as simple as: pay for the game, pop it in, pay for online, play it, have fun. It has now become: pay for game, pop it in, pay for online, play it, get sniped by campers, break your TV with your fist, get screwed by lag, fix connection, download DLC in order to keep playing, still get owned, break game. I just feel like the routine is annoying, and it just calls for more money and wasted effort from you while they rack up all the cash that half of it shouldn't even be theirs. *End rant*
LOL about Bobby Kotick! And I hate lag soo much, especially in Modern Warfare 2 when the host has bad connection...
Thats true its true
I don't understand how someone can have fun winning by cheating, it just proves you have no skill and don't want to improve your skills, losers!
He's always smiling because when they take his picture he's staring at a graph of activision's sell's.... or possibly a picture of a little boy sucking on a lollipop he looks like a pedaphile if you ask me hahaha
