XBOX ONE Fanboys Petitioning to Bring Back the Restrictions....WTF

lol

I don't see why anyone's surprised. Xbox team planned this all along. They removed "great features" (actually misleading features that don't do half of what they're implied to do) as a "result" of removing the DRM (it really had nothing to do with it) trying to get people to want it back. Welcome to manipulative business.

been had seen this. I dont care, just buy the fucking console and get it over with. im tired of hearing why you should or shouldnt buy these stupid nex gen consoles.

[Hitmanx123]

but yes...this whole "get the restrictions back" thing is dumb. the only thing i'd want back is my baby back ribs

the xbone will be fine a few years from now. look at how much the 360 has changed since launch. 24 hour check in was stupid. it should be like 7 days but the biggest mistake they made was caving to the peoples bitching. always online is the future of gaming weather people are ready to admit it or not. people fucking hated steam when it launched from what i hear but look at it now.

Steam has the constant competition of every other digital distribution site, standalone PC disc sales, and easier piracy. This leads to good sales, good quality maintenance, and extra features to keep the consumer happy. Not to mention Steam has no subscription fees or anything, the base system is 100% free. A console being always online will not have such competition. Digital purchases will be full retail for an extremely long time with little to no discounts, Microsoft has already proven themselves shady with their treatment of customer accounts, and the whole REASON consoles are still relevant today is because they don't require the same kind of purchases and connection that PC gaming does. If consoles go always online, consoles will go obsolete. They're already leaning towards being more expensive than a custom-built PC of the same quality.

yea all the digital games that have been out for a year are still about full price. i mena $20 less is nic ebut youre still paying $40 for a game that isnt even that good. the fact that there are only a few "try before you buy" games out there is fact that micrsoft will continue to push exclusives unto the consumer without the consumer even having a choice of seeing if they like it.
if EVERY game had a demo and i mean EVERY game im sure that people would feel much better baout buyng a game full price, vs trying to see if a friend has it so they can try it to see if they like it.
its funny to me because the windows phones app store's apps all have a trial option at which point you can buy the game anytime.

and the fact that halo 4 is still $40 on the market place even after a year after its come out is kind of surprising to me. its a good game but i personally think any game after year should at least be half price, just to make it fair to those who want to buy but dont have that extra to get it. dlc drives most of these "exclusives" anyway. i'd like to see a stand alone game last 3 months without dlc.

And the latter is what xbox (and the misinformed petitioners) are trying to get rid of. I don't see why anyone would support these restrictions, it ruins all sale confidence.
