Who cares? Who cares about streaming and sharing videos anyway? And if you did care about sharing videos, chances are you would care about online multiplayer too so would be getting PS+ anyway.

You know this is why I think MS is acting stupid as hell. The only people who care about recording and streaming video are people who are avid gamers. Casuals don't really care and probably don't know how to do it. Now, the majority of avid gamers are more than likely going to buy XBL, and the sole reason they are doing this, is to play online. The other stuff is just bonus, but even if the only benefit for XBL was to play online, gamers would pay the premium because that's a pretty big aspect of games nowadays. Sure, if you wanna milk casuals, you can charge for Netflix and all that jazz, but no casual is going to pay for XBL just so they can stream their gameplay. Here is where MS's studio decision making comes in.

The people who are going to use the streaming feature are avid gamers, and the feature that will make avid gamers pay for XBL is online play. So why put the streaming behind the paywall? Its not going to affect sales. Its not like there are gamers out there who were on the fence and decided to get XBL just so they could stream their games. If you are going to get XBL its either because you wanna play online, or you're an idiot who doesn't know how to use your computer so you want to get netflix. In either case, Streaming online is a very low priority reason to get XBL. All this does for MS is make them look greedy.

people are idiots, no company understands this more than MS, it is why the Xbone is going to be successful inspite and despite EVERYTHING we've seen thus far.

[QUOTE="II_Seraphim_II"]Not a big deal, but could be interesting. I always liking buying DVD versions of movies and seeing all the deleted scenes and alternate endings and all that jazz, so im curious to see this.Gargus

Same here.

I wish games came with like cut footage and deleted scenes, alternate endings, footage of like scrapped gameplay ideas and stuff like that as a bonus menu option like a lot of dvd/blurays do. Doesnt have to be anything fancy just some footage, pics, maybe little videos recorded while they make the game and slapped on the disc.

Then again Im a sucker for stuff like that when it comes to movies because I like to see how things changed, how they were done and so on.
