Why more gamers are more against DLC`s nowadays than in the past ?
If you look at my previous entries, you could get the impression that I am totally against DLC's. Actually I am more against them than favoring them but not totally against them. Anyway, comparing the situation to a year ago I think many more are against the DLCs than before. Why ? Here are my reasons.
1- Consciousness. Right now there is a solid consciousness over DLCs, in the past, when they were emerging and not that popular most people did not know what to think or how to react to DLCs. Tons of articles and discussion influenced people and now they totally know how to feel on DLCs.
2- Too many DLCs. DLCs kept coming and coming, even when there were only a few DLCs back in the day, people did not really care about them since they were featuring only extra content. Nowadays some DLCs are vital for the full experience.
3- Games with regular DLCs vs Games with no DLCs. Call of Duty genre vs BF Bad Company. While you pay 15 $ for 4 maps, you get all free for BF BC2. This is just one example. There are more like that. When that happens usually the light bulb in people's head is turned on.
4- No change of plans. They still introduce same amount of DLCs for their new titles and seems like they never listen to what gamers say about DLCs. Game companies are totally ignorant in that matter.
5- Weak content. Imagine you pay some amount of money for that extra content and it doesn't justify the price tag... Frustrating really.
6-Lack of trust. When you see already introduced add-ons before a game is released - dragon age II exiled prince , couldn't they include it in the full game ? - trust issues begin. People think that specific content is extracted from the game to make extra money when It could have been included in the full game where you pay almost 60 $.
Well, those are my reasons basically. Game studios should be very careful with those DLCs, it's quite dangerous as it could hurt that company's image easily and turn their fans into enemies.
If I were them, I would only introduce DLCs after some time that the game is released. And ideally the content would justify the price tag and not upset the gamers who tend not to buy those add-ons.

Game of the Day: Impale
impale game of the dayNo one likes zombies.They're scary, they're smelly, they eat our brains, they congest our highways, and are generally a nuisance to have around. Has one of your socks ever gone mysteriously missing in the wash? Chances are a zombie took it.
Today's Game of the Day, Impale, understands your zombie-hatred. That's why the object of the game is to hurl zombies from a catapult, impaling them on spikes, hooks, saws, and much much more. On each map there are a number of hazards with red lights on them, impaling a zombie on that object will turn off the red light. If you turn off all the red lights, you'll progress to the next level!
Though it may sound easy, Impale quickly ramps up the difficulty in it's 50 regular and 20 bonus levels. It'll take accuracy, wit, and a little luck to successfully impale all the zombies.

Pro Tips:
* To unlock the bonus levels you'll need to get a score of 1,000 on the first 50 levels. To do that, you're going to need to limit the amount of zombies you launch. The fewer zombies it takes you to complete a level, the higher your score.
* Remember to aim carefully. The further your cursor is from the catapult when you click, the farther and faster your zombie will travel. Also, though they are above death, zombies aren't above gravity. When you launch a zombie, it will travel in an arc. Aim slightly above what your trying to hit for best results.
* If you aren't looking to unlock the bonus levels or get a high score, and just want to have fun, may I suggest my preferred technique: the zombie catapult machine gun. Simply rapid-fire zombies at whatever you want for maximum effectiveness.

Game of the Day: Alchemy
Alchemy is a game of strategy and wit. Carefully place runes and turn the entire board to gold. You can only place runes next to pieces of the same color or shape. However, you can place a rune of any color or shape next to a grey stone. If you can't place the rune, you may discard it. But be careful, discard four runes in a row and it'll be game over! If you fill a row or column with runes, they'll all disappear, opening up the board. Similarly, a skull will let you destroy any rune on the board.
Alchemy may seem complicated at first, but once you grasp the basics, you'll be hooked on its addictive gameplay. Good luck!
