for me, if I'm going to pull $200+ out of my pocket for a game it needs to be more than just OK - it needs to be f***in phenomenal.
i couldnt agree more... if it was like a "10-Year Anniversary Bridge Commander v3.0" or whatever, something that i knew i would love at least like 95% of it, then id shell out that kind of cash...
but even the previews and early pre-release screenshots, i knew then i wouldnt be buying it... i was really disappointed because i really wanted to dig it, but it just looked kinda stupid to me, and the first bridge set shot i saw, i liked the whole thing even less... if it were like $19.95 at Walmart, maybe id give it aa shot and play it for like a week before putting it down and letting it collect dust lol
i came very close to buying Legacy when it first came out, i thought that would be a popular community and it seems at first modders from BC tried their hand at ST-L... but soon enough everyone started to realize that ST-L kinda sucked lol the only thing preventing me from buying ST-L at first was a crappy computer lol
but now that i have more than enough of a system to hande it, i dont think ill be buying that either...
guess ill just stick to BC, the occasional EF1+2 (which i play maybe twice a year to run through the SP campaign lol) and ST-E whenever that is finished...
