Video Game Mafia 3 - Microtransaction Mafia (GAME COMPLETE!)

[Destiny]

Just popping in. You forgot to list me as a reserve mate.

Is 2K just as bad as EA? Not only do they suck with micro transactions they are just an all around horrible company.

Would have been so easy to miss out. Didn't expect the game play to happen in the sign up thread. Is this Microtransaction Mafia or Budget Title Mafia? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Unless you have a LOT of free time. It still takes a lot of time even if you pay too. </p><p> </p><p> If you want to stay competitive at all, you basically have to crack open your wallet, which I'm not a fan of.</p><p> </p><p> You can also spend hundreds of dollars on packs and not come away with any cards from the highest tier too, so that's fun.</p>

Interesting.....

[Emark]

Interesting indeed.....

[Derek B]

<p>Very interesting. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

In case anyone was wondering on my EA logic... it's in the initials of the Evil Alliance. I assume that's the joke. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Triple... never mind...

[Derek B]

<p>Boooooooo, eayragt. <em>*throws random game merchandise at him*</em></p><p> </p><p>

But for serious, looks like we're having a quiet first day phase here. with numbers this small I'm not surprised, especially since the villainous team seems to be some kind of EA or 2K analogue. Boooooo at them in general, those games series are the worst in real life.... <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Looks about right to me.... assuming the 1 is an SK? Or an indy survivor-y type? Not something I'd know anything about. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

An SK in this small a game? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/eek.png.0e09df00fa222c85760b9bc1700b5405.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I hope not...
