QuotePart of its challenge is locating scarce in-game resources needed to create ammunition and medical packs in order to tackle the title's monsters.

No, I'm sorry, but its just not. Maybe in the first Dead Space, sure, but not this pile of disappointment. DS3 is no more survival horror than a slightly angry raccoon is a fun sleeping bag companion.

On topic, good. Now EA can use some of their other money to wipe the tears away from losing this tiny insignificant chunk. How ever do they sleep at night <_<

Quote"If you go into a baker's to buy a bun and they give you the wrong change and you walk away knowing you have been given more change than you handed over in the first place, that's theft," Sara Ludlam, an intellectual property expert at Lupton, Fawcett, Lee & Priestley told the BBC.




"So, arguably if you go into this game knowing you are supposed to be paying for these weapons and you notice a glitch allows you to accumulate them without paying, that's theft as well.

Is it theft? Says who/what? By law? Has this been put into action yet? "Dutch/Brittish/German/American man, 20/30/40 years old, convicted of shoplifting after knowingly receiving 5 euro's too much in change"?
