Learning the habits of potential customers have proven to be very good for business. MS will do it if they think they can get away with it. Kinect must check in and report on you at least once a day in order for you to be able to play your games. Which is negligible if you have constant internet connection. Besides, it's not like you're forced to check in everyday. Just check in if you want to play games. Example: Monday - Check In Tuesday - Friday - Busy, didn't check in Saturday - Check in and play games. Sunday - Check in and play games. You still have the choice of not checking in. If you're in a pinch, you can always tether your phone, the bandwidth needed to check in won't be big I think, it's more like signing in to Google or something. If you don't have phone reception or internet connection, then this console is simply not for you. You still have the option of not buying it. For me, Kinect 2.0 and the cloud computing outweighs the hassle of checking in. Most of the time, it's not even a hassle. OR You can buy PS4 and Monday - Sunday: Play games without the need of internet connection Who would ever thought of that gaming can be so simple

With the exception, that Valve said before, they would patch steam games, if the steam ever get's offline... I think it will go only for their own games, but despite being anti-steam customer, Valve is for me more trustworthy company than MS...

haha

It took them 20 years??? Some things needs time :D

Console is not a PC... Sharing games between friends on consoles were always part of the gaming culture... And you could even share your PC games with your friends before Steam and similar **** came... And there are still people who have real friends in neighbourhood... And there are still people who have real families in neighbourhood... And there are still people who own more than one piece of the same console... And there are still people who do not have stable broadband internet connection... And all these people are now pissed at Microsoft...

I just rather wait on first player reviews of Last of Us...

Not playing anything cos I am second week on a business trip :/ But i found this when reading about lolbox one anoncement, which pretty sums up why I stopped to play FPS games

Started Tales of Graces f for now...

GT 6 announced for.... PS3 O.o surprised but happy http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/gran-turismo-6-announced-for-ps3/

Finally got Platinum Trophy for Final Fantasy XIII-2 after two playthroughs and 200 hours played... Pretty much enjoyed the game overall and never felt bored... I even got all the titles for chocobo racing in this time including The hardest Underdog Title... Still there is lot of things to do, to get 100% playthrough, but now is time for another game... Need to think out what to play now... for the first time Nier Tales of Graces f Yakuza 3 or finishing The Last Story Resonance of Fate Atelier Totori or play little bit more towards earning Platinum in Star Ocean - Last Hope Ni No Kuni Demon's Soul Mortal Kombat But first watching some Korean historical movies And yes I am weird person...

Sighs... I think I need to get a new life Spent 200 hours on FFXIII-2 alltogether...

Hmm... another NeXtBox news... http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/report-microsofts-next-console-will-be-called-xbox-infinity/

Just finished all paradox endings and got all 160 fragments in FFXIII-2 It is funny but last trophy which I am missing for Platinum is Chocobo Riding Trophy :D I apparently ride them not very often to deserve the Platinum yet hahaha... Now at 98% of content completed in the game

Do not Jinx it :D

Will Wright talking about newest Sim City... http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/original-simcity-creator-calls-eas-server-problems-inexcusable/

Highly unlikely...

Why are they not shooting lasers from their chests?

reading about NWN online, and how I know the tabletop rules, it feels really very strange to see you going so fast with leveling up...

If you can, get your hands on FFIX as well... some could say it is little bit childish as well... but IMO Zidane is best FF protagonist... But yeah, I know some people, who do not like the game as well...

possibly the best in the series. What is on FF the most interesting, is that everyone has different opinions on the quality of every game I found VI pretty boring, and I was in love with IX, for example Anyway playing Final Fantasy XIII-2 trying to get every fragment and platinum trophy (23% to go), finally got the most retarded one - Lucky Coin fragment... I had to play that damned Slot Machine minigame for 5 maybe hours to get that fragment :/ And got owned my ass by Raspatil superboss... got sucky synergist monsters, so I was doing to low damage to his summoned minions, so he healed to much when I got him to 500k HP and then got impaled by 4 summoned Wladislaus... So I gone and spend some time to tame Purple Chocobo, and atm trying to level him up to level 99...

I bet it is a lack of Q&A in your virtual studio

And another look at Game Dev Tycoon, with little bit under the hood looking at the legal matter of what they have done... http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/piracy-or-baiting-the-thorny-legal-question-of-game-dev-storys-honeypot/

I don't owe EA nothing... They owe me Origin, Bullfrog, Westwood just to name a few... neither I do owe any other company... Last game I played from EA is Wing Commander Prophecy Gold... If Activision or Ubisoft would go down under, It would be for me same thing... Last game from Activision I played was Pitfall 2 on Atari 800XL, last game I played which has Ubisoft logo is Star Ocean 3 for PS2... I would lose nothing if any these companies will go down tomorrow... There is enough quality developers, who will continue to entertain me as they are entertaining me now... I would just gain a world with less shovelware

Do not mention JRPGs to him, he might catch rabies
