| Gamerace said: I understand people's concerns regarding the always online (as long as it's wifi I wouldn't care) but I'm waiting for the official reveal before commenting on how smart/stupid the idea is - if it's the case at all. I have heard rumour MS is working with cable companies to have them subsidize the cost of the 720. IE: Sign up for two years of _______ internet service and get a 720 for $99!! In this particular case, it's to the internet supplier's interest for the 720 to require an online connection. So it's possible it may only be required on 720s sold/given in this manner but not ones you pay full price for. But we simply don't know at the point. |
Jup, we don't know. And frankly I really can't imagine that MS follows through with it. But if everybody would just wait and see, MS might think its worth trying, now atleast they see people don't like that idea at all, if its not optional like you proposed atleast.
