I like this thread, its given me some few laughs.

Actually for me the internet connection thing is not the problem. Especially if you only need a short period of time for authentication. I live in a 3rd world country that has lousy internet that constantly pings out but MS did state its not a 24 hrs thing, which I hope remains to be the case but my issue is with paying extra for a game that has already payed for because I'm borrowing or lending is my main concern. This is the practice I do not want the industry to do just because they want extra cash from the 2nd hand market. The online pass to me was a better and a none intrusive choice.

I think you read my post wrong.  I wasnt saying you was complaining.  Im saying you are one of the few who has a reason to complain.  Sorry if I made it confusing.

But you are blindly supporting them. Why support this policy that can harm many. What benefits does it provide us, the consumer.

I personally have no issue with people who want to buy it, sure you like their games, and the compromise isn't big to you. So I understand wanting an XBox One. What I don't understand is supporting the awful choices they make. If the PS4, for example, blocked used games I might still buy it, but I sure as hell won't support that policy.

Okay, I got mad for a second because I thought you were calling me out after I thought we agreed earlier. For the record my issue with xbox1 is the used games. For the most part my internet is stable in Milwaukee.

Did you eat brain beans?

First of all  having internet access is a requirement to browse the web this website belongs to the web and there is NO OTHER WAY to do this thats why it is normal  PLUS this is what is required.

2. Internet is some kind of "service" If I dont want to use it I can still play games on my PC, work with it, listen to my music etc.  If the internet relevant features would require the xbone to be online than that would be okay but making the whole system require an internet connection is like the SimCity bullshit. Its just to control the users.

3. People have PHONES.  Phones (in case you were living under a rock)  are now able to browse the web. Alot of people have internet on their phones  but not at home because not everyone has a computer  and not every xbox owner was using the online service! And beleive it or not a few of those people use this website and wont be able to use the xbone.

Another example would be this.
You have a phone it has a battery in theory it can last 15 hours without being charged BUT to control you and to make more money,  phone manufacturers made a deal with electric utilities  so your phone wont work unless you charge it every 30 minutes.

Its just bullshit and noone needs it. And the argument that "EVERYTHING NEEDS POWER" would be really stupid here...

So next time you come back please don't eat brain beans .....

This is what you are doing.

It's cool lol No worries XD

Yeah I know that is what most people are complaining about and I understand why.  It is a rather big change and it does effect many gamers.  

I save the pages to read offline myself




Ok not really because that would be dumb, but you could

I'm Einstein in disguise mwahahahahaha XD

Have you posted this on every gaming forum you frequent?
