There was nothing bad about win2k.
Always on, always connected isnt as big a problem as its made out to be. I cant be assed looking up facts and figures while im eating my breakfast but internet, regardless of speed is widespread enough to start looking at Always on, Always connected. Also, whos to say Microsoft dont build in a sim card slot? It wouldnt support online play but would let the console stay connected.
Just to be clear, I think always on, always connected is a shit idea regardless of how well its implemented. I agree that 2nd hand games profits should be divided amoungst retailers, developers and publishers but their ae better ways to do it instead of just trying to shut the door completly.

Metal Gear Solid 4: It was announced that Guns of the Patriots is the first PlayStation 3 game that uses a 50GB dual layer Blu-ray Disc[18] even with the use of file compression. |
Yes, nice try to show that games needed Blu-ray and to show that x360 with DVD is inferior :)

“The console will be ready instantly when users want to play, and will always maintain a network connection so that console software and games are always current" I think I misunderstood this statement though. As for my 4th point.. I only said "hints" If the game can be installed, it means I can give the disk to hundreds of friends to install it on their systems as well. And Microsoft's silence about all these rumors hints more. |
Even crazy media like IGN still know it's talking about low power mode and backgroud updates,not require online
And MS always silence about every rumors,especially a console techically non-exist for them

I think you are getting the wrong idea. In the leaked image there is no indication that the console HAS to be connected to work, it just says that it's possible for the console to update the OS/games while in a low power/standby mode.
Neither is there any indication of blocking the 2nd hand market.

I think Microsoft and Sony will introduce a There There are so many stories doing the rounds regarding Nextbox that its hard to seperate rumours. Everybody seems to have a different interpretation of what this document means. I havnt read itproperly to be honest so thank you for correcting me. I read a different thread based on this document and they interpretted it as no connection, no game. Its all conjecture at this point. My point on the 2nd hand market was just thinking aloud.

Xbox 720 will have a sleeping mode and start instantly = OMG it is always online and won't work offline!
Xbox 720 will have a big support for entertainment apps = OMG it won't care about games!
Xbox 720 will come with Kinect 2 = OMG it won't care about core games!
Xbox 720 will install games automatically on the HDD from your disc, while you play the game, without any delay = OMG it won't play used games!
IMO those are four great features, how some people spin this is quite entertaining.
Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I'd say it's the obvious people spinning as always, nothing new. I would like to some of them apologizing when MS reveals the strategy behind it all but I don't think that'll happen.
