I think you're overestimating the reliability of the Internet. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 15/06/2013 04:46:15 PM

People with data caps are going to suffer from having to download such large files. People with slow internet speeds are going to suffer. The military is going to be flat-out incapable of using it—Nimitz-class carriers aren't famed for their robust Internet.

Yes, for a typical suburbanite the log-on every 24 hours is relatively unimportant, compared to the other issues. It's still important, though. I can and do pull out my N64 to play drunken games with friends. Will MS release a patch releasing the XBONE from DRM at the end of the console's lifespan? Those servers aren't going to stay up forever.

What makes Titanfall and Project Spark so great? A Deathwatch Guard - 14/06/2013 08:59:58 AM 892 Views
Titanfall looked like it was amazing. MightyYT - 17/06/2013 04:40:48 AM 825 Views
Ah, I think I see why our reactions are so different A Deathwatch Guard - 18/06/2013 01:06:19 AM 906 Views

So talk straight up system MightyYT - 17/06/2013 04:46:04 AM 970 Views
Other than not having horrific and unjustifiable new DRM practices, you mean? *NM* Ghavrel - 17/06/2013 05:59:56 AM 477 Views
I'll probably get a Wii U eventually. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 04:44:50 PM 1174 Views
Bite your tongue... Jeordam - 14/06/2013 06:54:20 PM 1038 Views
Oh, I know there are many games that don't come out on PC. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 07:48:57 PM 946 Views
I tried that once... Jeordam - 14/06/2013 08:02:46 PM 937 Views
I can understand that. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2013 10:29:59 PM 1151 Views
I'm not really a Microsoft fanboy, but I have at least a couple of points to make in their defense. Aemon - 14/06/2013 04:46:48 PM 1120 Views
You're an MS fanboy...face it. You probably love Windows 8 too!!!! Jeordam - 14/06/2013 06:52:21 PM 1234 Views
Re: You're an MS fanboy...face it. You probably love Windows 8 too!!!! Fox and Ravens - 14/06/2013 07:26:14 PM 886 Views
I'm a definite Google/Android fanboy. Microsoft, not so much. Aemon - 15/06/2013 06:17:52 AM 1354 Views
That article actually made me pretty psyched for xb1 Fox and Ravens - 17/06/2013 07:37:24 PM 876 Views
That's basically just a way of adding more buttons without adding more buttons A Deathwatch Guard - 18/06/2013 07:35:47 AM 909 Views
That number is skewed. MonCul - 19/06/2013 09:05:04 PM 867 Views
Maybe. I can't remember all the bundles they've had, but based on current options... Aemon - 19/06/2013 10:15:59 PM 1067 Views
I'd love to see numbers on how many people actually use it. Wibble - 19/06/2013 10:56:00 PM 915 Views
That would be interesting MonCul - 19/06/2013 11:26:03 PM 873 Views
That sounds like that time I bought a Super Scope for the SNES :p. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 20/06/2013 01:05:54 AM 586 Views
You're such a city dweller, it hurts. Ghavrel - 15/06/2013 03:22:58 AM 840 Views
Well, suburbanite, but yeah, same idea. Aemon - 15/06/2013 05:58:54 AM 1048 Views
I think you're overestimating the reliability of the Internet. Ghavrel - 15/06/2013 04:46:15 PM 910 Views
I dunno, I'm pretty well informed on that subject. Aemon - 15/06/2013 05:14:59 PM 1066 Views
I'll be surprised and disappointed if the PS4 doesn't outstrip the Xbox1 by far. MonCul - 18/06/2013 07:51:02 PM 866 Views
