Its not about paying 15.00 a month its the fact that they take that choice away from us gamers when the majority of gaming goes back way before the dawn of the internet.And if your not aware gamers from before the xbox era still make up the majority of the gaming industry market.That singles out a good portion of the gaming community.Not everybody is a fan of FPS(Or better yet people still like diversity in their gaming) and that is all that dominates the online console market.There is still a large portion of gamers who still yearn for a good single gaming experience.

Forcing people to be connected to the internet is not something they should be focusing on.
No matter how you look at it they are excluding people from gaming whether it be people who really can't afford it or people who just never got into online multiplayer to begin with.
Although if you never played a console before xbox i can see why this would not concern you

dude im 22 i started out with super nintendo so dont even try to troll like that. you still bring in false reasons to be mad.
no one pays 15 dollars a month for xbox live. Again, when are you not connected to the internet? Again, what does always being online have to do with not having single player games produced? i just beat bioshock infinite 2 times on my pc and it is a SINGLEPLAYER game and i was CONNECTED to the internet and it was one my FAVORITE games ever.

My pc is ALWAYS connected to the internet and i am still enjoying SINGLEPLAYER games.

Your arguement does not work at all.

There are a generation of people that played games before the internet that make up a good part of the current gaming market right now? No sht, i am one of them, and i currently play singleplayer....AND ONLINE GAMES GASP! and guess what, those same people play ONLINE multiplayer games as well as their singleplayer games.

Please i would love to find someone that used to play games before online multiplayer that has not played a multiplayer game online before.

Oh and im sorry that you think a multiplayer game online has to be an FPS. looks like you are as simple minded as i thought, or worse.

Edit: PLUS if someone cant afford the internet, they have no business shelling out 1000 dollars for consoles, controllers, harddrives, video game software(gunna need a lot of single player games if you dont have internet)

(Yes i know a console does not = 1000 dollars, but with all the games you buy you will end up spending that much money, and if you can do that, then why do you not have internet?)

On topic, I imagine I'll have internet most times, but this isn't the best move ever.

to be honest they are simply rumors which havent been confirmed by the company, i really love xbox but this time i will be buying the ps4, only thing that could change my mind is if the new xbox can cook food, and drive me anywhere which will never happen, r.i.p xbox

>Never had Xbox
>Clais PS is better despite neving having Xbox
>Fail logic

As always, thank's for taking care of me Jack.
Never had an Xbox? No, never. I don't want to waste money on something that I know I won't enjoy.
Even if I never had an Xbox that doesn't mean, I never played Xbox. I know Xbox's ''great and almost realistic'' graphics and games, etc. Better not go further.

You think, having both consoles proves which one is better? Easily buy one of them. Go test the other one to one of your friends and that's all you need.

Just one needed

the ps4 cant cook or drive you anywhere? The ps4 does look impressive so far, But to completely shut out any other option(xbox) before it has even showed you what it can do is very ignorant of you sir.

I don't see how everyone's so butthurt about this, it's not like you can't play singleplayer games anymore. Everyone has wifi, and it's not like the internet stops working at least once a day...

Not everyone will have internet connection every single time they feel to play video games.

^ This. It means the you can get constant updates for your games and you're always connected to your friends, I think that's great.

Also it's most like going to be called 'Xbox Infinity'.

Yeah its pathetic that the gaming will require a online connection. I might consider just investing in a gaming pc and start gaming on there. I think mods for skyrim alone could bring me to play pc.

The ppl saying everyone has wifi sound pretty ignorant right now. It's senseless to assume every household has a reliable Internet connection. Our Internet only works half the time and I know a lot of ppl who have to go to the public library to do work because they don't have Internet in their homes. It's such a bold statement to say that everyone has wifi

I do agree that it's pretty unnecessary, but it's not something to complain about. People who only play singleplayer games should get Playstation anyway, it's always been better at that. Majority of the Xbox playerbase plays online games.

I have never met a person who has a game console but no internet, wifi is sort of a priority.

so every game that is on xbox. EVERY game is sht? even the cross platform games? None of the playstation games are sht? With the lack of original games lately, and most games looking almost identical even on different consoles, how are games that much worse on the xbox than the ps3 to you? admit it, you are just a fanboy. You have one console, stuck with it because "hey, i have fun on this console, no need to try anything different right? nothing can be better than what i have right now!" thats the way you think. Thats like not trying a food because it looks weird to you, and fk it, cuz the food you always eat tastes alright to you so why try something different if it works for you? Sure you could do that, but you will miss out on other sht that you might actually like except your first impression ignorantly pushes you away from trying it.

You should've pointed out you've played an Xbox. You don't have to have one to play it, which you didn't specify. I'm not saying your argument is wrong and that Xbox is better. I'm not giving my opinion on PS vs Xbox.

You people aren't getting it... Of course, for online gaming, a connection is always necessary, but what if the game is purely single player?

Imagine if the 360 had to be always connected. What if a technician from the cable company has to come over and do some maintenance, leaving my internet connection down for a few hours? An always-on console therefore wouldn't allow me to play a game like Skyrim if I wasn't connected to the internet. This is also a privacy issue; sometimes, I don't WANT to be online.

If this rumor is true, Microsoft is seriously setting itself up for financial suicide in the console market. Of course, those with stable, good internet connections will appreciate this console, but contrary to proper belief, not everyone's internet connection is reliable (hell, even here in the States we don't have it as good as other countries...)
