Σημερινό slashdoted άρθρο…
Πότε επιτέλους οι εταιρίες παιγνίων θα συνειδητοποιήσουν ότι σε μια παγκόσμια δια-δικτυωμένη κοινωνία, είναι *κουφό* να μην κυκλοφορείς το παίγνιο την ίδια μέρα για ολόκληρο τον κόσμο?
Ως πότε θα βλέπουμε διαφορετική ημερομηνία κυκλοφορίας ανά περιοχή / ήπειρο / χώρα ?
Ειδικά όταν τα παίγνια πλέον διανέμονται και δικτυακά μέσω υπηρεσιών όπως η steam (!?)
"Crysis 2 comes out today! And Lego Star Wars III! Hooray! Except of course, only if you drawl your vowels. These two big games are out in America only today. Crysis 2 reaches Australia on Thursday, and the finally completes its journey to Europe by Friday. Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is taking a three day journey to Europe to reach us by Friday, before then walking to Australia to eventually be released eight days after its US launch. We've had enough. ... There’s an internet now. It’s changed everything. Once we were separate nations kept apart by vast spreads of water. But the internet contains no oceans. The time was a game could come out in North America and we’d not hear about it until the boats arrived carrying news from the new country. But now we can see the Steam page, the giant clocks on the game websites counting down to a day that means nothing, the launch trailers and excitable press releases about something we can’t have yet." http://games.slashdot.org/story/11/...Shotgun-Call-For-Worldwide-Game-Release-Dates
