Its sounding pretty much like Im going back to how I was last gen. Sony as my primary, MS as a distant secondary Halo box.

This gen I owned every console but only used PS3 for exclusives. Last gen I was straight up PS2 and basically used my Xbox for Halo.

This Nextbox sounds strait up anti consumer and they will have to blow me away to convince me otherwise

It's not happening. MS is very smart when it comes to these things. It will be offline, I have 100% confidence in that.

Really? I would say that MS is very smart when it comes to marketing. They are the only one out of the 3 that could pull something like this and have it come across as something positive. I mean look at Xbox Live.
