Him being fired lends credence to always online DRM being present. I don't think they'd fire the Creative Director of MS Game Studios if all he did was 1) 'joke' about people with bad internet 2) shoot the shit about an always online console that Microsoft are not actually making.

His comments have obviously done significant damage to the message they wanted to convey, and the only way that would be true would be if there was indeed that drm in place in the console. I mean, as if we couldn't all have guessed it by this point. Fun times ahead.


No it doesn't. The guy would have been fired regardless because of the way he was talking to potential constumers to the next Xbox. He represents Microsofts brand with whatever he does in life. You can't go online and tell people to deal with it or act like you are better than people by saying I would never live in a certain place.
