:wow: at the balls it takes to pull this move.
Requiring you to pay for an online subscription just so you can use the system.
Then hopping on twitter to shyt on you for questioning it.
This is like spitting in somebodies face and telling them to lick it off.
Crazy, the nerve of these clowns.

YOU CANNOT PLAY YOUR GAMES UNLESS YOU HAVE A XBOX LIVE SUBSCRIPTION. MEANING UNLESS YOU'RE LOCKED INTO MICROSOFT, FOREVER, YOUR GAMES AND SYSTEM ARE ESSENTIALLY, TRASH.

YOU SHARE THOSE TITLES.

Pretty much.

People are complaining about something that will only happen sparingly. People keep bringing up people who don't have internet who live in rural areas. No one in this thread lives where only dial-up is available.

I think it's dumb but it's not like it's the end of MS or the world if it's always online.

:mindblown:

Breh, you cannot be serious.
The market is bigger than just us and people like us with good internet. How does having internet always on benefit people playing single player games and practice sessions?
There are still a bunch of people without internet access that play games, some of the people with net access is only through a phone.

Only possible reason that makes sense for this is for ad placement.
Companies are always complaining about DVR and people skipping commercials, I'm sure this is a tactic to insert ads, somehow, someway into your gaming experience, as they'll know for sure that someone is staring at a screen at that moment.
Then you'll find a way to rationalize paying for that as well.
