Microsoft Respond To Concerns Over Xbox1

I love how some of you guys speak for the entire world with your generalizations.

The fact is, Microsoft is the best provider of technology in the world. The Xbox One is going to be a great console. The most complaints I hear are about the Xbox One being always online. The way I see it, if you don't have internet you shouldn't be looking to get a next-gen console. In a world that revolves around the internet, I fail to see how that is a bad feature.

Like he said above, change isn't a bad thing. Most people are flocking to Sony because it's 100 bucks less. You get what you pay for.
Great post Mamba. The news flow won't personally influence my decision on purchasing an Xbox One. It could influence some gamers. My biggest issue is how Microsoft is handling this from a public relations perspective. :eek:

How the fuck do you get what you pay for ? Are you honestly this blind
Are you that close minded that you're so afraid of your internet going down?

Honestly, you people with this argument act like you don't have a life away from gaming and that if, God forbid, your Wi-Fi went down for a day, you would die.

It's the same problem Diablo 3 has. Something happens on their end and suddenly you aren't able to play a game you payed for.
The makers of Diablo aren't MS. You are looking at what could happen, rather than what has. In the 11 years that XBL has been in operation, you can proably count on one hand how many times it has gone down.

Why do I need my internet connected?

Look, I have two options:

Option 1: No internet mandatory.
Option 2: Internet mandatory.

What perks do I get for option 2? I have no reason to pick option 2.

So do I. Are you getting Elder Scrolls online?

A year ago, I was swapping ISPs. I had a major problem and they somehow managed to fuck up my broadband line or ... something. I'm no tech geek.

Point is, I was out of internet for a month.

Now, If this happened in 1 year, and I had a PS4, I'd be happy and playing skyrim, I'd be annoyed that I couldn't do a lot of things, but at least I had skyrim.

With Xbox 1... I have a glorified brick.

Have you looked into what the perks are? Or have you just shut down from the word go.

Seriously? Just because it hasn't happened yet makes it better? Everyone makes mistakes and the times that Xbox-live was down at least 2 of them were for a month. That's a whole month where you can't do shit but watch TV on your Xbox because that's all else it can do. Besides, the guys who made Diablo 3 run the servers on WoW and have for almost 10 years now. They are in the same league as Microsoft is in what you're trying to imply.

Lol so much derp. You can tell why FIFA became better than PES after this neanderthal resigned as EA CEO.
