I searched, and couldn't find the ninjas part.  :)

 

I know that's what Sony said.  Microsoft just said the same thing, the game isn't working for some other reason besides DRM.  You seem to take Sony at its word, but when M$ says it isn't DRM you don't believe it.  Just proves the point that I made initially.  No matter what M$ says, people will jump to whatever conclusion they want to justify their hate.  This isn't about which console you own, this is simple bias.

Probably because Penello has a history of damage control and being caught lying. He knew there was a resolution difference in CoD but acted like he had no information. He said MS never got a chance to explain their DRM policies. Not only that but at first MS said they needed the day 1 patch to remove the DRM. THEN all of a sudden its a "oh no this day 1 patch has been planned all along." MS has done nothing but confuse, spin, lie or have been mistaken with almost everything.

We know it isn't activision like you claim because there is no way Activision could control the system being offline. The only explination someone gave is the OS expiring which sounds like a stupid way of doing things and I'm suspicious of. On top of that the dude got the OS and ALL the features of the OS. Yet, somehow we are suppose to believe that the system doesn't ship with an OS and 500mb is all it takes for all the nifty things they have

So, the short answer is YES, you have a bias.  Sony and Nintendo have day 1 patches on their systems.  The WiiU has one and it has been out for over a year.  The guy downloaded a beta version of the software.  We don't know what was in his download or what it does.  Activision can control a system if it is offline, by downloading something to it when it was online.  This whole argument brings us to the same point - We don't have ANY idea what is causing the problem for this guy.  You can guess what makes sense to you without knowing any actual facts.  I am doing the same thing.  So, at the end of this thread, all thatr we will have done is proved that nobody here knows anything about the actual problem that this guy is having.
