I sometimes fail to pay for my online bill which Isn't a big deal because I have Internet on my phone, so this means I won't be able to play my own damn console or play any new games till I get online again!

I say F U Microsoft , you just lost a customer.....I seriously hope Sony doesnt do this too


You can use your phone as a server right? most phones have the "portable hotspot" feature, I tend to use it a lot when traveling.


Yes I have hotspot so I'm hoping it does indeed have wifi with portable hotspot feature or they can kiss my butt

hostpot works on all Wifi enabled devices.

Did MS learn nothing from the rumours? Maybe it was just too late to turn back at that point

Or they simple don't pay attention to gamers on gaming forums, which is most likely the case.

Or SimCity, but since they partnered with EA , I don't really know what to believe in any more.

Doubtful, because they fired Orth

Maybe the reason he got fired was because of leaking REAL info and not the "twitter war" he made . I have seen that even in the small company I work in, I can't imagine the rules a much much bigger company like MS has. Just a theory.

He should've asked what happens if you don't connect! Does your console just shut down, or are most OS features simply disabled? Is there going to be an offline mode in the future?

He said that he wasn't fired but he resigned, I bet he just leaked the news and jumped ship before it sank.

Again, this is another one I'll wait for the official word on.

I find this one even less likely to be true than the used game rumour though. It just seems highly improbable that Microsoft would go this route. The only thing that makes me believe it is that the console was so targeted at the USA.

This IS an official word, Phil Harrison is the vice president.
