Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Black Ops were the only two games on my radar, and I honestly don't feel that either are worth the $60 price, because I… -

Doubt about a Lord of the Rings VideoGame large as Skyrim.
Hi to everyone. I want to discuss some hypothetical topic about the legal framework sorrounding the producction of a videogame.
