frick no Kabel Deutschland is the best in the country, 100megs for 20 euro a month is money.

honest question have you been to england? There is no adjustment for pricing. The pound is strong but they still over pay for goods and services. A meal that is 6 bucks in the states is 6 pounds over there. Even the brits think the price tag is absurd bc when compared to what we pay its almost a 200 dollar difference.

if people are basing their console choice on their internet stability, i have no sympathy for them.

I will admit I am not the best at understanding foreign currency but it seems like it really isn't if overall they make more and their dollar is stronger than ours.

7 pounds for a meal at McDonalds 4 pounds for a beer is a kick in the dick for us, but the norm for them. Thats why those fricks always ball out vegas

No different than what NCAA has been doing. If you get it used you need to buy another online pass.

Not really a big deal to me if they're not the ones pushing for it

That's a double standard though. It's OK for publishers to push it onto you but not the console manufacturers?

You realize how off that thought process is? If you are going to be upset about it then be consistent and be against it across the board.

this board has gone full fricking retard and its some of the solid posters doing it.

if you think this is the same thing as being on a friends list for 30 days to give my game away. not being able to rent games at all and having to check in every 24 hours i dont know what to say.


but then again these same people thought cloud was going to make the xbox 3674907% more powerful because onlive!! clearly not understanding the differences there and the ridiculousness of the claim at all.

Nice passive aggressiveness.

I never said it was the exact same as Xbox but DRM is DRM...no?

Also, you need to read on the cloud some more and what it can do just on the new Forza. It's going to be pretty damn awesome.

The cloud aspect has the potential to make the whole gaming experience better from processing power all the way to dedicated servers for every game.

Did Sony announce dedicated servers for every game? Serious question.

Believe what you want. Sony lied about DRM. I don't know why your console isn't connected to the Internet anyway so the online thing is dumb. Also MS hasn't said how rentals etc will work and apparently we need to hear how it will work with Sony too. I know you believe Sony could do no wrong.

Well considering most of us dont trade or rent games and have solid internet in a metro area, those points mean nothing to us.

so, the stuff ps4 knights are championing are of little consequence to a prospective xb1 owner. Hence the disagreements.

As someone who loves live I thought the cloud and Internet features would only add to the greatness.

If you play a lot of multi player games that rely on P2P connections and get lag comped a lot that right there is reason enough to stick with the Xbox unless Sony offers the same thing.

They will have to. No way they can expect to compete with ms for the online mp crowd without some legit hardware hosting these games.


If they dont....oh man.

I don't know about you but I think that Forza cloud stuff is pretty damn cool. When more devs get used to the cloud and learn how to better use it features like that will only become more advanced.
