ffs carl... is the heat getting to you?


I know!

Im okay today, aside from the shit cricket.



                            

LMAO, nice one Kowen.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

1 for those saying that low income households cant afford internet. Then why would they want to spend between 400 to 600 (im basing this off the console and a game or two) dollars on something that could cost them about another 100 a year( tgey would probably buy a couple games a year)

2 for those that dont have access to the Internet. Wouldn't it be better if more products started to require an Internet connection since it would put more pressure on the Internet company to start getting Internet everywhere?So the way Iim seseeing it if more products were like the x1 not only would customers start demanding Internet buy so would the company releasing the product. Dont get me wrong im not trying to say the x1 will have everyone starting protests or anything. But the way sony is going is that it doesn't matter if there is Internet or not. How does there way put any pressure to get Internet where its not currently available?



I'll keep posting news as well as other stuff, but still won't be buying the Xbox One.

You aren't the only one Nsanity. The only thing worse than the XB1's restrictions is the willingness of some to defend them.

It's just not a big deal to us. My.. everything is already always online. The same with probably most people on this site. Our willingness to defend it is no where near people willing to bash it. Especially considering all of the complaining is on the internet...



ive had a change or heart. I actually like what MS is doing. I am genuinely fascinated by how far some people will just take whatever and get nothing in return and be cool with it. Its almost more fun than actually playing the games. I want them to restrict it even more, just for laughs.

Considering MS were all like, "Good luck with the reveal today" in Feb and he says things like that all the time... It's sort of petty. Though I do think number 2 and 4 are funny. 

Edit: Major Nelson even said "Well Done" for The Last of Us too... At least he's showing respect. Sony, while some are funny, are acting like they're in High School.

You do know that is a parody account right and not actually Kaz.

Yeah, I've been told. They way people talk about the account here makes me believe I'm not the only one who thinks it actually is Kaz either.

I'd agree with you but their short sightedness could effect those with the good sense to see where this is heading.
