But how do you know they wouldn't have sales on xbl? you're making assumptions... which, I am too... But, they have only just started giving rewards out now, so it's showing promise that sales and rewards are on the cards, as it has been a serious point raised.
and also, steam needs to be online to go offline, doesn't it?
And besides, everyone is making it out to be 24/7 online.. it's once a day, that really isn't bad. you connect it to the internet, and sync your shit, then play offline for the next 23 hours. I don't see how that is shafting anyone.
Because they have no need to, because it's a closed system with no competitors. Their PS Plus alternative rewards have been crap so far, but we'll see. They had to do something with Xbox Live considering the dash ads and shit service.
I don't actually think that's the case any more, you can start up in offline mode, it just won't sync your latest saves. but if you know you won't have internet for a while, you can put it in offline mode beforehand and it'll work fine. With One, if you couldn't afford to pay for internet or lost your connection, you would have been stuck with a useless $500 hunk of plastic.

Microsoft ditching Xbox One family sharing planWell shit; that was only good thing going for it.
That was hand in hand with the drm thing. The family sharing thing was only one of the good ideas behind the drm... Idiots have made it xbox360v2... Backpeddled the shit out of it
Hahaha, I bet people are gonna start saying stuff like this now. "It lost all of its good ideas. They probably should have just kept it."
They will... Seriously, I have no cared at all, and regardless, I'm still buying one. But seriously, the online once every 24 hours thing had good ideas behind it. and theory. It was going to be pretty much steam... so, you fuck your disk, or lose it... you still have it/ can download it. and it's with you forever... or rather your account forever
Steam has an offline mode, the One wouldn't have functioned without that connection, at all. Steam also has sales, and competition on the same platform from GOG, Gamefly, Gamersgate, GMG...you really can't compare them.
I won't forgive Microsoft for attempting the shaft their userbase any more than I suddenly love EA because they shelved online passes. They're still douchebags.
Serious discussion is generally for concepts or questions you've considered, not vomited from the shallow recess of your mind.

The first post bug still exists after about three years. I'm amazed Fakku hasn't collapsed into an internet consuming black hole
Maybe SFW avatars would stop people emblazoning their posts with shit CGs and gawping lolis. Worth a shot

Either it was intentional because of e-peen 69'ing, or it's a bug.Hope it's a bug. Even a hentai forum should have some form of integrity.
Check the front page thread. It's intentional.
More cocksucking than popsicles made by KFC.
I was going to rep you but the irony would be overwhelming
I never expected this to actually happen. Okay maybe I did.

And Crystal Palace F.C. has been promoted to the English Premier League next season!Congrats Gambler, not a great game but Palace were worthy winners, Watford didn't show up :)
Summary of where shit is at right now:
- Games are tied to an account but anyone on that console can play (Phil Harrison genuinely said you have their 'permission' to use the unlock code once, and this requires an internet connection)
- You can play a game at a friend's house if you log into your account, but
- You will have to pay full or almost full price to 'unlock' a recent used game
- You can trade games within their closed market system, but no word on whether you will get actual money, or Microsoft Points, or whether the devs will get a cut (and prices will be artificially steep)
- It won't play 360 games or transfer your XBLA games (and there's no indication that they'll let you stream them)
- The console will need a daily internet connection
- The console will not run without Kinect attached
- They only showed us one example of actual gameplay footage (Ghosts) which told us very little
- It can simulate dogs very accurately
- It can sense your heartbeat and longs to silence it
- It has TV and DVR features but only if you run a DVR through it
- 15 exclusives including 8 new IPs, one of which is Quantum Break (but these could be download titles or by bad studios)
Yeah I'm super hyped

There won't be another one because they managed to botch a fucking texture pack for the existing games. He's probably rightly worried that a new title wouldn't be up to the high standard of the second one, as you should be.
And he asked fans to reiterate just how hard they want a new game, which is a nice PR move, but makes sense when the HD collection has sold pretty badly. Also gives him some time to fuck about doing Kojima things.

Hey gurl. What is happening? You're such an adorable faggot Cormac
I am trying to get him to embrace his destiny as a Trap.
But the little flower is being, oh, so coy.
He will blossom, in time. Has quite the affinity for Bridget in Guilty Gear. He's like the Oscar Wilde of traps.

Kill me please. In the most horrible ways possible. Plural because one method is simply not enough.
