Why would you buy a next gen console and not have a Gold account or PSN+? If you really are that anti-social and never play online sharing videos wouldn't be something that interests you in the first place. Once again more whining for no reason from people not interested in buying the Xbox One in the first place.


Could not have said it better myself. Almost no one commenting here was planning to buy it anyways.

Everyone just needs to accept that paywalls are a thing ... even Sony does it which is a much greater scandal than anything that has come out about Xbox One recently considering that "free online" was the battle cry of the PS3.

Microsoft has a paywall. Sony has a paywall. Nintendo will have a paywall soon.

Really you guys?

Microsoft announced that as long as one person on the xbone has gold, everyone can play online on that system. That meant I could just have a family GOLD account and still play online on my personal account.

Now you guys are arguing that every player on a system should pay for GOLD, even when all but one can already play online without it? You're so wrong it's almost comical. This has nothing to do with being anti-social or not wanting an xbox one.

We are not arguing that every player should have Gold ... we are just saying that the kind of player that will use this feature will 10/10 times have a Gold account already so people are complaining over something incredibly trivial.

There was also some justifiable scorn towards posters on here (often with giant sigs that feature Sony games/products) complaining about this feature that they will never use, because their next gen console choice is clear.

I don't make it my mission to go into threads about the PS4 just to bash them ... especially when I have no intention of buying a PS4 anytime soon if ever.

1. I don't have GOLD on my account yet I want this feature. Bam you're wrong.

2. Does a person's love for a different system automatically make what they post worthless?

3. So you're saying the people upset about this have a mission to go into xbone threads just to bash them?


well it's clearly because of your sig made completely of Sony Kaz hirai gifs and I think in one of them there is a guy actually making love to the dvd tray of a ps3? that was a bit much! Really annoying at this stage when you can't raise any concerns about a console you were looking forwards to because you've immediately been a playstation fanboy for years.

The point is that it would seem they are clearly not looking forward to the console regardless of this feature ...

Take my sig for example. I show my Xbox gamerscore and it is (somewhat) high. Without looking at my post history, take a wild guess which next gen console I am looking forward to. If someone has a Playstation Nation banner on their sig, a gif showing a PS4 erasing a Xbox One, their trophy card ect. ect. then I don't think it is unreasonable for me to assume they are probably interested in a PS4 over say a Xbox One or Wii U.

It would be like if I walked into your house/apartment/whatever and I saw a bunch of Call of Duty posters on your wall. One would assume you like the game. Now there may be other reasons for you to have them on your wall, but that would be the first thing to come to mind.

I am not saying that they can not have a valid point even if they don't plan to get an Xbox One. What I am saying is that it is petty, and completely unecessary to act as though this is a major drawback for Xbox One or to say Microsoft is greedy and terrible ect. This policy affects virtually no one, and the people who seem to be most vocal about it are the ones who would never use it in the first place. That is all I am saying.


I do obviously know there are some people who do just pop up in all of these threads and claim they were going to buy 10 box ones until they found out it was going to be the colour it is and now they hate it.... I do understand these people exist, but I'm going to post something I've put in a few threads at this stage now but yeah http://i.imgur.com/d7F9ips.jpg that's my wall o games from the last 2 gens, with the majority of my 360 stuff on it, that was taken slightly before E3 and the two games in the very top right are actually on loan from a friend along with his system, Since the reveal I have got my own Ps3 but if you can look at that and claim that I had no interest in getting an Xboxone before the reveal of all the shite at E3 and all the bad press from both Nelson and Don M then I'm just lost here.

I'm not just a collector btw feel free to add Stormcloudlive on Xbla I think I'm 1 achievement point under 37k thanks to goddamn rockband 3 giving an achievement worth 4 pts!!

Like I said tho, I really do understand that there are those who troll bad news, but please understand there are also people who were dying for the reveal to be amazing, the Xbox720 that would literally send Sony's heads spinning, but for me personnally I felt only the fans were feeling as tho we were getting spun around by the X1.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive
