I think you're overestimating the reliability of the Internet. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 15/06/2013 04:46:15 PM

People with data caps are going to suffer from having to download such large files. People with slow internet speeds are going to suffer. The military is going to be flat-out incapable of using it—Nimitz-class carriers aren't famed for their robust Internet.

Yes, for a typical suburbanite the log-on every 24 hours is relatively unimportant, compared to the other issues. It's still important, though. I can and do pull out my N64 to play drunken games with friends. Will MS release a patch releasing the XBONE from DRM at the end of the console's lifespan? Those servers aren't going to stay up forever.

Other than not having horrific and unjustifiable new DRM practices, you mean? *NM* Ghavrel - 17/06/2013 05:59:56 AM 582 Views
I'll probably get a Wii U eventually. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 04:44:50 PM 1458 Views
Bite your tongue... Jeordam - 14/06/2013 06:54:20 PM 1199 Views
Oh, I know there are many games that don't come out on PC. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 07:48:57 PM 1210 Views
I tried that once... Jeordam - 14/06/2013 08:02:46 PM 1092 Views
I can understand that. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 10:29:59 PM 1423 Views
I'm not really a Microsoft fanboy, but I have at least a couple of points to make in their defense. Aemon - 14/06/2013 04:46:48 PM 1410 Views
You're an MS fanboy...face it. You probably love Windows 8 too!!!! Jeordam - 14/06/2013 06:52:21 PM 1383 Views
Re: You're an MS fanboy...face it. You probably love Windows 8 too!!!! Fox and Ravens - 14/06/2013 07:26:14 PM 1032 Views
I'm a definite Google/Android fanboy. Microsoft, not so much. Aemon - 15/06/2013 06:17:52 AM 1638 Views
That article actually made me pretty psyched for xb1 Fox and Ravens - 17/06/2013 07:37:24 PM 1014 Views
That's basically just a way of adding more buttons without adding more buttons A Deathwatch Guard - 18/06/2013 07:35:47 AM 1053 Views
That number is skewed. MonCul - 19/06/2013 09:05:04 PM 1011 Views
Maybe. I can't remember all the bundles they've had, but based on current options... Aemon - 19/06/2013 10:15:59 PM 1346 Views
I'd love to see numbers on how many people actually use it. Wibble - 19/06/2013 10:56:00 PM 1063 Views
That would be interesting MonCul - 19/06/2013 11:26:03 PM 1013 Views
That sounds like that time I bought a Super Scope for the SNES :p. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 20/06/2013 01:05:54 AM 711 Views
You're such a city dweller, it hurts. Ghavrel - 15/06/2013 03:22:58 AM 982 Views
Well, suburbanite, but yeah, same idea. Aemon - 15/06/2013 05:58:54 AM 1332 Views
I think you're overestimating the reliability of the Internet. Ghavrel - 15/06/2013 04:46:15 PM 1052 Views
I dunno, I'm pretty well informed on that subject. Aemon - 15/06/2013 05:14:59 PM 1354 Views
I'll be surprised and disappointed if the PS4 doesn't outstrip the Xbox1 by far. MonCul - 18/06/2013 07:51:02 PM 1004 Views
