Not leaving a good taste in my mouth so far. Lets keep watching, but...



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Worst news I have heard so far



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

What a fucking joke.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Come join The 2018 Obscure Game Monthly Review Thread.

Meh, it was bound to happen sooner or later since Microsoft arguably set that trend ...



That's both a surprise and a disappointment. At least it should mean Nintendo is going to put more effort into online services.

Stupid considering they went from shit online with Wii U to paid... didn't even do what Sony smartly did with PS3 to PS4.

Megaton. Very damaging news too because bragging about free online would have been a big plus.



Like someone said, sony transitioned wisely from a bad free online to a good free one until they started charging for it



Well, Microsoft started a trend.

I wish Sony and Nintendo didn't follow it. But if you're a business and you saw your competition doing it and the customers for the most part accepting it, you'd do it too. So I didn't blame Sony for it and I don't blame Nintendo for it now. Why should the competition get money for it and you don't right?

Still wish both Sony and Nintendo were free online from a customer stand point, but I understand.


If you want to blame anyone, blame Microsoft's fanbase. If they had revolted rather than accept it, Microsoft would have kept playing online free, and the other two competing platforms wouldn't have followed suit.

Microsoft pretty much exposed that there were enough people that are "slaves" to gaming that they could get away with it.

Sony and Microsoft have far supperior online compared to Nintendo. No one will want to pay for a service that is inferior.
