Don't like it find a new hobby. Game are more expensive to make. People pirate all the time. Studios have been closing down left and right. They have to protect their investments.
Welcome to the real world. Being a whiny bitch does not help. They will survive without you. All your crying does is show everyone that you are a baby that can't deal with change and expects people to drop to your every needs.
I don't like it either but I have been gaming for so long I would not know how to live without it. I accept it.

Not in the slightest. That isn't how it is until its been adopted. Judging by the press/critic/potential consumer response I'd say its more likely that this will all backfire on Microsoft.

Weren't you guys just crying about how no used games would hurt poor old Gamestop? They give you used games with Gamestop and now the same people are crying about how Gamestop and MS is a cartel and needs to be struck down and gaming is dead... despite the fact that EVERY prior console game on EVERY prior console could also be sold at Gamestop.

Dude you are 80 years old. You of all people should know I am not whining. I am explaining how shit works. I suppose you could still be one of those brain damaged low lifes that still lives with Mom but I am gonna assume you are better than that.

Stop crying like a bitch. it is embarrassing. Trying to insult only adds to your crying bitching ass approach. Do us all a favor (yourself included) and just.....  That or entertain me more with your ignorance and continue on posting. Please. throw some more of your lame ass insults at me as well. cause you know, I really care what you think and all. :roll:.....:lol::lol::lol:

Again, you are to stupid to accept it. I flat out said I don't like it. I know it is bullshit. But all I can do about it is not buy it. But since I have the internet, AI have a good job, I like games, I will just roll with it. I am not happy with it at all, but I am not gonna go buy a game system I don't want like a Wii U just because of DRM. Not when I am gonna have internet anyway. I trade games all the time. I guess now I will be more picky with what I buy. It isn't that big of a deal to me. I am not gonna stay up at night curled in a ball losing sleep over it like apparently you immature, self centered babies do.

They will if enough people make enough noise. The problem is people like you who are too lazy to actually stand up for yourself. Today its starts with this current form of DRM, tomorrow we could have AO-DRM where you can't even play if you don't have an internet connection, along with that, companies like EA can just shut down servers on a whim to get you to buy the next version of a game.

I invite you to go to XBOX.com. Look up my name. I have done my share of complaining, asking Microsoft to change, and threatening to quit buying XBOX products. But I am not gonna go out of my way to do it. I am not gonna toss and turn in bed at night, and I sure as Hell am not gonna go on a god damn rant with a bunch of Sony loyalist who would bitch regardless just because it is Microsoft. Hermits think they are better than everyone anyways so I have never cared what they thought, but it will be a funny day in the forum when Sony announces that they are doing something similar to Microsoft. But something tells me when Sony does it.....It will be OK.

God forbid anyone voice their dissatisfaction with anti-consumer BS. Much better just to lube up and take it like a good little mindless drone. Enablers like you are part of the problem, the only reason the games industry thinks it can get away with this crap is people like you that will put up with literally anything to play the games they make. Maybe you should take your own advice and quit whining about the people that actually give a damn when their consumer rights are trampled all over.

Once again....You have nothing. Just a piss poor attempt to call me dumb because I understand why third parties and console makers are doing this. Think what you want. Just remember that you are a big boy....Your ass can always find something else to do with your time. Put your allowance money you get on Friday to some good use.

You can always game on PC.  We have more independent games and studios, games are cheaper, and chances are you already own a PC ...just drop a 250 dollar video card in there, and youre good to game.

I invite you to go to XBOX.com. Look up my name. I have done my share of complaining, asking Microsoft to change, and threatening to quit buying XBOX products. But I am not gonna go out of my way to do it. I am not gonna toss and turn in bed at night, and I sure as Hell am not gonna go on a god damn rant with a bunch of Sony loyalist who would bitch regardless just because it is Microsoft. Hermits think they are better than everyone anyways so I have never cared what they thought, but it will be a funny day in the forum when Sony announces that they are doing something similar to Microsoft. But something tells me when Sony does it.....It will be OK.

Sony has already been burnt with aggressive DRM, thats besides the point. It does not matter which company is doing it, they will not get my business. The argument for this anti-consumerism nonsense has been around for a while. When D3 was announced with no LAN many people questioned it yet they were met with the shouts from the fanboys that it was nothing to worry about, the same again happened with Simcity. Companies cannot keep doing stuff like this and its about time gamers woke the fvck and did something about it!

just look at this post, its obvious hes a moron that when someone does something he doesnt like, just like people calling out ms bs he will use a ridiculous hyperbole that magically doesn't apply to him. He thinks getting ripped off is somehow synonim of having money.

Again, you are to stupid to accept it. I flat out said I don't like it. I know it is bullshit. But all I can do about it is not buy it. But since I have the internet, AI have a good job, I like games, I will just roll with it. I am not happy with it at all, but I am not gonna go buy a game system I don't want like a Wii U just because of DRM. Not when I am gonna have internet anyway. I trade games all the time. I guess now I will be more picky with what I buy. It isn't that big of a deal to me. I am not gonna stay up at night curled in a ball losing sleep over it like apparently you immature, self centered babies do.

God forbid anyone voice their dissatisfaction with anti-consumer BS. Much better just to lube up and take it like a good little mindless drone. Enablers like you are part of the problem, the only reason the games industry thinks it can get away with this crap is people like you that will put up with literally anything to play the games they make. Maybe you should take your own advice and quit whining about the people that actually give a damn when their consumer rights are trampled all over.

Consumer rights? Here is the thing. The United States Government is not gonna kick down your door and hook it up. You don't have to buy it. So your consumer rights are not in jeopardy. So you really don't need to worry about it. Of course you might have to consider Sony doing it as well. Nintendo doing it as well. But again, No one is forcing you to buy it.

[QUOTE="timbers_WSU"][QUOTE="AmazonTreeBoa"][QUOTE="timbers_WSU"] And yet you responded............dumbass.

Ah so you decided on option number 2. To continue displaying your mind numbing ignorance. You go on now son and entertain the rest of us. I will just sit back and watch.

Once again....You have nothing. Just a piss poor attempt to call me dumb because I understand why third parties and console makers are doing this. Think what you want. Just remember that you are a big boy....Your ass can always find something else to do with your time. Put your allowance money you get on Friday to some good use.

I am sure there are plenty of people out there that won't buy it. I am sure when Sony announces they are gonna screw everyone because EA and Activision wants them too there will be people boycotting them as well. But I also know that some people will say "I don't buy used games." "I don't like loaning my shit out." "I have internet." So it won't bug them at all. I am just one of those people that has accepted it. As long as the games will always be available to me Then I am good. Now if they came out and said "We no longer support the XB1 and PS4 so your games are getting cut off." Yeah....Then I would be pissed and go on a internet spree or whatever.

Don't like it find a new hobby. Game are more expensive to make. People pirate all the time. Studios have been closing down left and right. They have to protect their investments.
Welcome to the real world. Being a whiny bitch does not help. They will survive without you. All your crying does is show everyone that you are a baby that can't deal with change and expects people to drop to your every needs.
I don't like it either but I have been gaming for so long I would not know how to live without it. I accept it.

timbers_WSU

thats why steam and gog do well in business.

One is easy to pirate and the other doesnt even have drm. Keep hiding behind pirating to protect microsoft. All you do is show how much an idiot you are.

I accept it. But you keep crying, signing your petitions, keep complaining to a bunch of whiners in a game forum. Good luck with your quest. You never liked Microsoft anyways. So I seriously doubt EA or Ubisoft, or Microsoft gives one shit about your opinion.

You accept anything MS shove up your ass, what's fvcking new?

And Sony. You all keep forgetting I have a PS3 as well. I accepted Sony's crap as well. Microsoft is not the only company who has screwed me over the last 10 years. Sony has did a great job of it as well.

Sony will have to follow MS if they want to stay competitive if all the publishers refuse to put their games on the PS4. You mention that you just accepted it? You are telling me that you are fine with them taking away your rights on what you do with your own property? If I buy something, I expect to be allowed to do what I want with it.

OK. I will say it one more time. No one is making you buy it. So you are more than welcome to buy a PS4 or PC. Is there anything about that your ignorant, slow and useless ass does not understand?
