According to officials’ posts on Battle.net forums, Russian gamers get to buy StarCraft II for a much-lower price than U.S. or European gamers. They do, however, have to pay monthly fees to keep playing after a years’ worth of online time.
According to translated reports of the Russian language forum posts, Russian players can pay 999 rubles ($34.37) for a standard DVD version of the game that comes with one-year access to Battle.net multiplayer or pay 499 rubles ($17.17) for a jewel-case version that only has four months’ access. After the time limits expire, players have to pay 100 rubles ($3.44) each month for continued access to the multiplayer. These packaged products are for Russian servers only; players can “upgrade” to the complete version of the game sold in Europe and play on European servers for “about 30 Euros.”
A Blizzard official attempted to calm eastern European players worried about the Russian pricing model affecting their own countries. “The subscription model is mainly for those players that would not be able to afford the European version,” Xordiah explained in an English language thread. “This will also give them the option of buying the less expensive game and then afterwards deciding that the game is worth upgrading to the European version and as such they will have access to European as well as the Russian servers.”
Designing video games can be a costly Endeavour, especially with characters and other animated graphics, requiring detailed programming for all the movements and interactions in the game. On the opposite side we have what are called stick games, where simple stick like figures are the characters, that star in the games. These games, are simple yet incredibly fun to play, and just as addictive as their well designed (and expensive) counterparts. Stick games are proof that a game does not require awesome graphics to be entertaining, and a continued source of fun for gamers, which has led to the coming of arcade sites that only feature stick games, you can play in your browser for free.
Like with all types of sites there are good gaming sites and less reputable ones, that will send you straight to pop up hell. One of the best gaming sites in this genre is FreeStickGames.net, an arcade site that specializes in stick games and features hundreds of free stick games you can play in your browser, without being bothered by annoying advertizing that pops up on your computer screen.
Stick games are fun to play, because there are stick versions of literally every game ever made, and while the characters are obviously very simple. The game play, and with it the entertainment factor is very much still there. Another big advantage is that stick games are small, load in your browser and you don’t need to install anything, just point at the game, click it and start playing. They are perfect for an occasional quick game during a break, or when you have just a little time to kill. No large story lines, no video scenes to eat up your time, just the raw gaming action.
Stick games are free to play, and due to their simple set up, they are playable on every type of computer, netbook, smartphone, or other mobile device, making them perfect to play just about everywhere, at any given time. There are no expensive hardware specifications, or huge loading times. Stick arcade games always work on any device capable of displaying flash games.
A good example of an excellent stick game would be Fight Man in this game your character has to fight his way through the levels beating up all opponents in his path. The concept is very well known from games like the early Batman games where you have to clear level after level by defeating the villains. By simply using the arrow keys to move and the Z, X and C to fight, jump or defend, you control your stick man, and beat up your enemies. You see, it’s all very simple, yet terribly addictive and fun to do!
All of the mentioned reasons contribute to the rise in popularity of these stick games, and the fact that they are free, really helps also. By the rate that their popularity is growing, it is safe to assume, that we will be seeing a lot more stick versions of popular arcade games, as new ones are coming out almost every day.
