I was reading that the expansion pack for Quake 3 is comming out.

UT had already released its expansion pack!

Then I read the new pack from Inoxx for UT is also out and it is free... again!

How much is Activision charging for thier pack??

Now I remmeber a time when activision was pretty cool with Mechworrier, and I76.

So here is my question... What has happened to Activision?

I am glad that I play UT!

But epic is smart to not so, and let it out free, this will boost the imago of epic/unreal tournament. and give the game more lifetime, wich leads to longer sales of the game. and that compensate the loss of imcome a bit for not selling bonus packs.

In my experience , commercial expansion packs suck. big time. usually all you get is a few extra weapons and a few levels , of which there are often better ones available for free., also , many commercial expansion packs are made my third parties , (see gearbox, xatrix, ritual) which often stray from the original design teams vision of their product. This is why epic can't lose. 1.the pack is free , so if it sucked , no money is lost ,2. the packs ROCK. I feel this is mainly due to the fact that the original design team produced said expansion packs . no money , no risk , no problem.
Nuff said.
