We are screwed. Speaking for a lot of countries in Asia. It's like no Xbone for you.

Which countries in Asia are you talking about?

Hong-kong, S. Korean and Japan are up there but for the most part, most countires have a slow connection.

Here in the Philippines the normal speed of the internet you will find for the common folks is below 1Mbps. We are practically screwed and thunder storms and heavy rain, good luck with a stable connection when there's one. 

Edit

For those who are ok with it. Try living here when sometimes a connection loss will last for 1-2 days or worse for weeks. It 's a common occurence here becauce I.m been there.

Imagine I  have an Xbone and I can't even play games with it becasue I don't have an internet connection.


I stayed in cambodia and philippines for a long time an dthey had a stable broadband wireless internet connection an dthey ar elike one of the poorest countries in the world.Where i am from ,, its considered a developign country and teh connection is decent enough to loig on once every day. i mean whever you switch the machine on to play games you would be registerign it safely for the next 24 hours. it only takes fe wmintures. i do not see the big deal

I think most people dont like it because they think of the games that have used drm and had server crashes but the fail to see that xbox live has only come down once i belive due to to many people logging in.   

second i wouldnt be surprised if the limit gets increased to 72 hrs.  

Exactly. I am thinking this just to test it out first. By i think 24 hours i smore then enough as no one  games for that long straight. I mean if you travel long distances  by plane , you jsut have to switch it on and verify it so  thats no too hard right? Yea xbox live hav ebene pretty good this gen. Well i am sure ms kwnos what its douing have they 300k serves and unlimited funds so it they need an upgrade they can easily afford to. Like MS and sony have said, its up to the publisher so have feelign neither companies wanted this but had no choice because of the publishers forcing it to Ms.  i would imagine that ocne you have verified it you can switch back to ffline as you woudl b ecovered fro the next 24 hours. Everytime we go on to play games you are already connected ot teh itnerent. How hard is it to jsut verify everytiem you are logged in. That shouldn'rt be the proble,m

and if your taking your console to a frineds house just sign in right before you leave and youll be good for 24hrs.  also i believe you are able to use your smartphone to connect to the console to the interent to check in.  


exactly. and thats why i don'tunderstand the fuss about 24 hour thing. as mosrt of the complaints is having to log on once every 24 hours lol
