What rights? There are no laws saying games have to be made on disc or laws against having a constant internet connection. Because it's not what you're used to you feel threatened by it. Some people don't like change, you are one of those people. Come on it's 2013, at least 90% of the population have some form of broadband internet connection. People without internet could tether their Xboxs to their phones. And don't use the people in other countries don't have an internet connection excuse, that's such a cliche. Microsoft could have easily made adjustments for people in other countries so that they could be able to play offline. |
Microsoft undermined the first sale doctrine. Look it up. Understand your rights as a consumer. DRM alienates the used market if you take it to a certain extent and that is one of the major things that makes console gaming special opposed to PC gaming, which basically has zero right to resale because of the fully digital and code-based form. If Microsoft put the paywall up they and Gamestop would've had some issues and a larger sum of people than you think would've defected to Sony on principle.
