With a time limit. This is limiting your choices. If I don't want to connect to the internet for a few days, I shouldn't have to just to play the system I just spent money on

And you are on the interent every damn day. If you have to come up with unrealistic "what ifs" then your complaint is stupid in the first place.

makes sense and thats your choice. but 2k just said you aint playing our game unless you're connected online. So lets assume for arguments sake you're one of the millions who have or will purchase 2k15. you will be stuck in a DRM system via the DEVELOPERS from 2k. not sony, not xbox. but the devs. at the end of the day YOU... CANT...PLAY... GAMES...WITHOUT BEING ONLINE. and thats against what you believed in is it not?

I think it's complete and total bs the 2k does that, but you keep saying games and yet have only named 1 game. I'd be completely furious if it was all games vs. just the 1

There's a big difference between mandating it from a system level than from a game to game bases. If a dev didn't want people to have to have a internet connection to play a single player game than why should it be a requirement?
i just told you. these big games are implementing it right before our eyes.

i'll tell you what its really like. Its like these legal weed shops in cali. sure by cali law its legal. but by federal law its still not legal to have those shops. so every now and then the feds would raid these shops.

i'll ask you again. does it matter who stops you from playing without a connection as long as you are stopped from playing because you dont have a connection? it should not matter. thats what i'm saying. These stans had everyone going nuts about xbox and didnt realize the stuff was being snuck in on us REGARDLESS. at least you would've been able to reap some benefits of other little features from it being console based. now there is no benefit whatesover when they DRM us with the always online crap that all of these big companies are pulling.

i'm naming only one game because its one game i know millions of people have and are going to get. i dont have to names 40 games. shoot, are their even 40 games out.for the new consoles? lol.

I'm showing you an example of how a large gaming company that makes games for millions is pulling the same crap that everyone cried about. there should be no buts in this thread. all there should be is "yeah.. you right..they got us and its bs..we were wrong for going at xbox as if it wasnt the devs who requested it to begin with. "

think about it. what the hell does xbox gain personally from DRM? NOTHING. its the devs and the content people. any content xbox was pushing was already online only(videos/music) . so that wasnt new.
that DRM stuff was for those gaming companies. They made the request. not all but enough of the big boys to put most of us in a situation where we better be online all the time or else. we wont be playing the games we love. for those two or three of you playing games from the mom and pop companies that are 100% against DRM. more power to you. but the rest of us are stuck. Which was always going to be the case. which is why i said let MS do its thing so we can at least get some benefits out of it.

What games? You've named 1 game that doesn't work offline that can be played solo. All these big companies tend to make sure there's a offline mode for their games

Games were able to be traded/sold/shared both physically and digitally. And as I said you've been on here every day for the past year. A 24hour check in is not a limitation for the overwhelming majority of gamers.
Yeah at "select retailers" or whatever their original half assed FAQ they put up.

don't speak for the majority, the majority speaks for the majority and we already know what that was.

what is the point of this fukking thread anyway? this is getting tossed

Why would I lie about not using the internet some days? What's the point of that? You're wrong and you know it, but for whatever strange reason you refuse to criticize MS for anything they do no matter how wrong it is

Not using the interent =/= not having access to the Internet

I have the interent, I've had access to the Internet daily for at least the last ten years, there's nothing to criticize for a company that's making a product that would totally benefit my own situation

The "majority" didn't even get a chance to make up an opinion on it. And judging by sales of other products the "majority" has no problem with online requirements.

And look at liquid again pulling out his mod power for facts that make him uncomfortable :wow:

You're missing the point. If I don't want to, I shouldn't have to. I've already made my purchase of the system. If I don't want to connect to the internet I shouldn't have to.

And yes I've gone days without having access to the internet too
