I copy-pasted the content of the article into the OP to make it a bit more thread-worthy.

The industry is treating us like an enemy they must defeat and subdued rather than an ally they should work with.

"-Only major con is the once-every-24 hours. This is unfortunate."

Yeah, being unable to play games on a console is a bit "unfortunate" for some of us...



OT - i think i've finally reached the point of i just don't have anything more to say. i just am at a loss..

:o

Right you are, boss!

Although, if we clamped down on the last part of that bullet point Nsanity would be perma'd by now and there wouldn't be half as many threads around the forums as there at the moment.

Thanks for that! I meant to do it but had to go afk before I had the chance.

Only con I see is the connection every day. This could be the main problem here.

The rest are negligible/also adopted by Sony.

To my own personal life situation, the connection thingy is my main issue. Sorry if thats blows your mind lol.

But I have a feeling the cons aren't really your problem either...you are just upset with the anti-consumer thing in general.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

This is exactly my main argument in other threads. Just far better written.



If I buy a $400-500 product I expect to do what the hell I want with it.
I don't like renting, so I'm probably done with Xbox brand. I'm keeping my 360 until I retire from gaming.



didn't some guy on twitter from MS say "we hear you". so I'm curious to know what exactly he heard.

Anyways, I'm done with xbox brand. Not going to renew my XBL membership once it is over.
