What a lot of people don't realize is not just that it doesn't have to be online, but for something that's been "plug-in-play" for over 30 years now has to be verified/activated just to turn it on and play offline. That is total bullshit!
Yeah you need an internet connection to surf the web on your PC, or you need a carrier for your phone to make calls. The thing is, is that..........you don't need an connection of some sorts to fucking play your games!. You don't need internet just to listen to your music, watch videos, do photo or video editing.
You don't need internet verification/activation when playing offline. The X1 is basically a giant paper weight without an internet connection to pop in a game. I don't want my console telling me "Sorry but an internet verification is required to operate this game"
Might as well say good bye to "plug-in-play" while you still have a chance.
