Forbes: "The phrase “always connected” conjures up a lot of skepticism in the video game community, especially when it
comes to Microsoft’s next Xbox, codenamed Durango. It makes people think of SimCity, which is only now regaining its core functionality after a disastrous launch stemming from its need to be “always connected.” It makes people think of the sort of DRM controls that PC gamers have been dealing with for years. It makes people think of used games restrictions and the perils of a spotty internet."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Behavior Interactive Inc. revealed a new content update for Dead By Daylight, with a Chatoic Modifier, Store Update, and TOME 19: SPLENDOR.
Gori: Cuddly Carnage is out this summer, an adult-themed action platformer featuring a hero cat with a hoverboard that fights against mutated toys who destroyed the world.
Somebody has been reading VGleaks it seems. All that hoopla and it turns out the always online stuff was never for gaming. Also Xbox Mini is intriguing.
Yes...the cheaper xbox lite is the unit that will be always on always connected. Finally the smoke has cleared the air cant wait till may 27 for the unveiling.
"but here’s hoping that Microsoft is planning on using those features for entertainment first, and games second."
Its likely going to be ad related data first, entertainment second and gaming third.
Always online is still going to be an issue. Even though its now - still - about privacy rather than game DRM. And again, this applies to Sony as well. Along with any general consumer too ignorant to change any available defaults.
VGleaks has reported that the xbox WILL NOT require online to play offline content and will play used games. Spread the word since this site will not allow that article to be approved.
haha these people are in complete anti MS mode
they want the xbox to fail so bad
dont cry
MS is not that stupid
