The point is, we have so far wild speculations based on rumors. Surely it would suck, if you can play games only if you're online. Also the comments of this Orth-guy were pretty stupid and the shitstorm was justified. But seeing endless discussions about a speculation seems to lead to far. It is simple as that: if MS implements a DRM, that needs you to be online while playing even single-player, then they shall get every hate possible and I hope the sales will suffer. But the rumors of always on and always connected can be really many other things. So I think it is OK to say, that IF MS considers such a restriction on gaming they should go to hell. But the discussion should also accept, that we don't even know if MS even considers this. |
Its still a hypothetical situation. But if you take everything into account:
Random rumors popping up over months recently: Edge reporting, XBox leaked docs, Kotaku, Oarth and no denial or official response to that, its logical that people start to talk about it and start taking it seriously.
