Also does nobody remember what happened to the original Xbox titles (e.g. Halo 2) when they decided to shut servers down? That's right... you can't play (online XBL anyways).


What do you think will happen to the Xbox 720 in 20 years when they decide to shut all the servers down because "nobody plays it anymore"?

@bledsoe45sbc Always online = you can never do anything offline regardless of the fact that you have paid for the console.

Steam = you can do whatever the heck you want after downloading the game and running it once.

Big difference.

@bledsoe45sbc There's a huge difference between Steam and always-online DRM.

@bledsoe45sbc Steam is not always-online required

I think M$ is just being arrogant after having some success this gen.

@Toysoldier34 @The_Beanster @dribblesbarbax If you look VERY closely you may be able to detect just a tiny hint of sarcasm in my post

@rookiesniper195 Me too... I'd be a bit sad to say goodbye to Halo, but honestly it's been going downhill anyways.

I will NOT support draconian DRM with my money. Period.

There's a MASSIVE difference between a device that is always on and a device that is REQUIRED to be always on.


In the immortal words of the great Jay Wilson: "F*** those losers."


I'm done with you M$ if you do this. PS4 for me.
