[QUOTE="darkspineslayer"][QUOTE="Far_RockNYC"]

Lets see how many of those games you got off PSN+ you really own once you stop paying

Far_RockNYC
Those games that EVERYONE understand they are able to play as long as they keep up the subscription? Not really getting your point here, fanboy.

"Not really getting your point here" cows are so like that, no worries ill explain....you don't own something you have to continue to pay for. Unless you pay for PS+ you can't access those game you DL.

But those games were free perks...given to me because i want to play multiplayer....something completely different....

[QUOTE="ithilgore2006"]Stop trying to justify a pointless restriction's existence. "It's not THAT bad" doesn't work when the restriction literally doesn't exist for the competition.

It's really not all that bad...............for me. You? Not so much. I see your point.

"Check in complete". Wow! That was intense!!!! I don't know if I can handle that level of stress every 24 hrs. Oh well, back to playing: Ryse, Quantam Break, Forza 5, Dead Rising 3, Metal Gear Solid V. Is everyone blowing the 24 hr. thing up a little too much? Or is everyone just looking for the smallest bit of news to flame? Used games? We still have details coming in about this also. E3 has been good so far but I think we will still have questions when the conference is over. FoxbatAlpha
It's bullshit. If you want to have the industry dictate to you that's on you....but most consumers want to dictate to the industry. I see why labels are applied to fanboys here though....

Can't blame them. Their puppet master and lord of douchebaggery, Larry Hryb, even called in an exclusive

Even after he was told that is not, he did not delete this tweet.

I heard they will have a override code for remote areas to unlock this restriction, but more to come. I'm in the military and 14 hours of my day I don't have internet. Those 14 hours is when I want to play games. How will the Xbox One work for me then?

Perhaps you think so, and you're welcome to buy an XB1.  Most gamers have made up their mind about this already, and it's pretty clear to see their feelings.

You are right, that's how it should be but I'm easy to please when it come to my game system. I don't know what's more insane, your number of posts or that u like The Cure.

I don't see it being a huge issue. Especially since I got my new router, and my internet barely ever drops.

Get over it. Seriously, you're making guys like me who've supported the good days of Xbox sound like a complete joke. Just admit that Microsoft is out of touch with gamers and could really care less about screwing you over. I came to grips with it myself. Now I know that True Gamers you refer to as Cows have always looked out for the interest of gaming whilst noting how bad Microsoft was gonna screw us over. You're really a pathetic individual. PS4 day one for me. You can have your rent a box with rented games you're gonna pay full price for, mandatory Kinect and 24 check ins. You don't even realize that Microsoft's making you as a consumer pay because of piracy and that the Cloud is bullshit.

I think people are, in a sense, blowing it out of proportion. I think it's more akin to steam and needing to be connected to play. Steam does have their offline mode but you can't restart your computer once disconnected or it's useless. Microsoft first and foremost knows they're alienating particular people from purchasing this console. They know that not everyone has a constant internet connection and won't be able to purchase the console because of it. At the same time though, they realize that MANY people do. Many people are connected 24/7 because that's their way of life. Will they lose customers? Probably yes. Why is it that people think MS is unaware of this fact? Why do people believe that a multi-billion dollar corporation is unaware of their potential customer base? They very clearly are. The thing is, their customer base for the Xone is changing from that of the 360, and that's what current 360 gamers don't seem to understand. They are designing a console that is based off online features. The internet is what makes this console, so they want to serve people with internet; that's their market. They know the future of gaming is changing and they want to lead the way. Will their market share be as big as PS4's? At this point it seems like a "no" right? Even so, MS, knowing their customer base, knows their potential for income by making a console with a more specific audience than the 360's. It obviously makes them content so let them do their thing.

I guess I am starting to understand MS's stance now. They stated " if you don't have Internet, we have something for you..... A 360." They aren't attacking the market on a global scale but are catering to a higher class, more serious core gamer. Unlike Sony who is making their PeasantStation available to every third world country. And thrive it will for the Peasants!

Had a ps2 last gen, an xbox360 this gen. when i was a kid i was nintendo. I am not faithful to any company, and I'm certainly not faithful to aggressive DRM strategies. I buy used games and lend games to my friends. The 360 has been awesome, and i still believe it offers the best package this gen. Next gen its looking like ps4 is going to offer the best package. So yes, DRM is a big deal, connecting once every 24h is a big deal. used games are a big deal. Thanks but no thanks MS.

Hey man wanna borrow my game? Shit I forgot I can't.

I'll bring my game over and we can play that shit on your Xbox... Oh shit I forgot my password.

Time to trade in for a new game... Fudge cookies... I can't.

Wounder what redbox has to rent... MF'er I can't.

My account was banned from XBL... Lost all my games!

Someone hacked my Xbox account... Now I can't play!

Next gen Xbox 2024... None of your games will carry over... Xbox One servers down in 2028. OMFG $4,000+ down the drain!

So what happens if your internet goes down for a few days? What if you go on holiday with it? What if you are on active duty in the military without internet?


It's people like you that love to bend over for MS, and this just gives MS the idea that it's ok to force these ridiculous regulations on people

I swear the subtle best quote of the day! -->Lems trying to justify not owning their games

Wow. Real circle-j**k going on here. Steam has a far more restrictive DRM, but no one mentions it.

I guess every cow in here not only has a high-end PC, none of you have high-speed internet, and every cow just buys used games.

Are those the new rules for being a Cow?

I don't understand this, why is steam far more restrictive? You can play steam games offline for weeks with no issues.

[QUOTE="Zaistev_basic"] I swear the subtle best quote of the day! -->Lems trying to justify not owning their games_Matt_

Wow. Real circle-j**k going on here. Steam has a far more restrictive DRM, but no one mentions it.

I guess every cow in here not only has a high-end PC, none of you have high-speed internet, and every cow just buys used games.

Are those the new rules for being a Cow?

I don't understand this, why is steam far more restrictive? You can play steam games offline for weeks with no issues.

Steam is very specfic about saying that you own a non-transferable license. You cannot sell or loan it. And, even if you hack the exe key, once you login to Steam, it will detect your illegal copy.

MS lets you sell games. They just force you to remove them from the HDD before hand. You can loan games to your friends, too (though there are restrictions). It's not as free as PS4, but it's not as limiting as Steam, either.

This. The whole thing is horrible. If I buy a game, I shouldn't have to prove it every single day. I just want to play the game!

Valid point. Sure you can't loan off games or rent them or sell them or whatever, but you cannot really do it easily on X1 neither. You can do it, but they haven't made it easy. Maybe it's also overlooiked because of how cheap Steam is for games, with so many sales etc.

You know how well that worked out for Sim City and Diablo 3?

I rest my case. There will be a ton of complications with this and they could have ALL been avoided easily. You're a fool to defend it.
