Go DRM-Free: DRM will be cracked, but pirates often steal solely due to DRM, or wouldn't purchase anyways.Make a Club: If people buy a magazine subscription when they buy the game, at no added charge, they will enjoy it more. Do not restrict play for those not in the club, though, but make special content available only to club members. (plug-ins, not multiplayer, should be the incentive)

    However, I find that I've been spending a lot of my time on games, and not much doing everything else.

    I will give an example of a good franchise with a bad game that failed, and a good franchise with a good game that failed nonetheless, and how they could have been saved.

    Franchise 1: Galidor

    Galidor has a pretty neat concept. Change forms from one to another and become a wonderful fighter. It was sponsored by Lego, but it had a fairly decent concept. It had ...]]>http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314372http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314372Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314192http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314192http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314192Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314028
    Here's my review of it: It's a decent service. It's easy to use, works in Firefox. However, the selections are rather low (and they stock information on bands they don't have songs from) for us non-contemporary listeners (I.E. those interested in Gregorian chants and Christian metalcore [granted, that's almost nobody]). I'd be willing to recommend them to anyone, given that it works. Not all of the songs tend to work. Some do, some don't. It's not that they can't be ...]]>http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314028http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/314028Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313475http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313475http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313475Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313349http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313349http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313349Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313228http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313228http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313228Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313153http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313153http://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313153Fri, 04 Jul 2008 11:09:05 -04002008-07-04T15:09:05erathonielhttp://erathoniel.joeuser.com/article/313085
