so your saying that people take spending $60 on a product and tht product not working as advertised is "too serious"? I dont know what planet you live on but if I buy something it had damned well better do what it says it does and do it properly.

For one, it was released on the 22nd, so that's a lot more than 17 hours. Secondly, some of us can't even log on using our MyCrisis ID in the game to even experience multiplayer at all. As awesome as the single player stuff is, eventually we'll want to try multiplayer.

Lol, are you being sarcastic Willertz? And to the guy who asked me which planet I live on, I live on Neptune. Contrary to the popular earthling belief that Neptune is a gas giant, there are floating plateaus which hover in small heat bubbles created by radioactive neon isotopes which act as miniture versions of earth's atmosphere. Perhaps it is the oxygen you breathe that makes you believe the world is centered around you, but if you take a step back you may one day realize that the reason you pay $60 for games is because it is a standard price agreed upon in the video game industry to prevent competition from reducing profits. If you feel that you did not get appropriate value from Crysis 2, that is unfortunate but you are far from the first person to be dissatisfied with a product that they consumed. You are part of a capitalist machine that was created, has developed, and thrives on day to day trial and error of consumption, production, and the pricing that results out of both and your dissatisfaction and subsequent choice to not purchase from Crytek is merely one of the infinitely many choices that accumulate to create the economic environment of the world.

Grow up and try to understand why things are the way they are before you begin arguing about things you clearly do not comprehend.

I understand that this is the only consumer driven industry that leaves its consumers with virtually no recourse for unsatisfactory product performance. If I buy a $1.00 McDonalds double cheeseburger and am unhappy with it i can return it for a new one or a refund. If I stop in at a 5th avenue restuarand and pay $50 for a cheeseburger and am dissasisfied with it i can also return it for a new one or my money back (much to the chefs annoyance I'm sure) But I can't get any compensation when i buy a video game that I am dissatisfied with? I can return a movei, music Almbum, DvD player that doesn't have particular features, almost any othe consumer commodity can be exchanged or refunded, somehow PC games are exempt from this. hell even console games can be refunded/exchanged. oh they can even be traded in for credit towards new game purchases. PC gamers have been getting the shaft by publishers for too long now. it's sickening.
