I'd go for ad supported, I've tried them before and they really don't bother me.

I usually just browse a magazine or go for a quick walk around the house anytime an ad comes on.

But I was just thinking.....surely in just 60 minutes you most likely wouldn't be able to get near the things that would be unavailible in the limited options version.....so wouldn't the limited version be better? Then you would be able to play the bits you would be able to achieve in 60 minutes any time you wanted at your leisure.

With the first option you're given the false idea that everything is availible but there's a time limit, so in a way not everything is availible because to get near the larger amounts of technology advancement you would need to keep turning on your game for like 2-3 minutes change some things and then turn it off.....and even then it might not be enough time.

Loc: *looks up* Huh? Where am I?
I fall in the majority group!!! Wouldn't you rather see all the features in limited time than play forever but not see all the features? The limited version will probably be like the online VV1 & 2 games-little or no tech, unable to pause, terrible graphics...sick

I like try before you buy limited features. Especially in real time games the limited time can be problematic. As far as LDW games go though, it doesn't really matter because I'm sure I'll buy it anyway laugh

i like ad supported, because you get the full game, the company gets revenue, and then if youd like, you can buy the game and get rid of ads.
