Well isn't that exactly what Coded was at first?

They added it too early and too aggressively. The Xbone would have been unusable for MOST of the world.
And there weren't enough consumer benefits to the restrictions. It was an attempt to grad money and power, and just hope that nobody would care about what they lost

To be fair, Litnin is pretty different in this game... like, they basically emptied the character from the first game out, and put a bland... well... nonexistant one in its place
Basically, they gave her superpowers. Style over substance, she's like Clod in Advent Children if you cut out everything but the fight scenes

Uh huhh...?
And?
I'm getting a PS4, it's the cheaper, better option, but that's not what this topic is about, is it?
It's about how the xbox one wasn't REALLY a bad thing, but a forward thinking superdevice! And frankly, I'm the other half of the argument, and you can't just remove that with the excuse "nobody is FORCING you to get it" or something >.>

Ugh, I was worried this would happen. The 'people just don't like change' spiel >.>
Microsoft outwardly and aggressively ANTAGONIZED their consumers here. There were some fringe benefits, yes, but they didn't really outweigh the downsides. There was no reason why you shouldn't be able to play single player games offline. Hell, internet connections shouldn't be required in this day and age because they're not GOOD in many places yet.
And used games are a major enabler, too. My friend is about to trade in his Xbox for a PS4, thanks to a trade in deal at EB games that makes it financially possible for him.
Used games are the most reliable way to get old or hard to find games.
Making games RELY on your servers is TERRIBLE in the long term
And the Steam argument is bad too. Steam is an app you can get for your computer, the Xbone was a 500 dollar underpowered box with a camera that has patents for spying on you.
Oh, and if you don't buy used games, that's a really self centred reason for not minding them killing used games, since used games would still be a thing, but ONLY at participating retailers, heavily damaging any SMALL gaming businesses.

I'm sorry, this isn't a fear of the future, it's not wanting Microsoft to force their version of it on us. Maybe in the future, a more trustworthy company can try something similar, when more people have a reliable internet, but in the mean time, just plain no.

IMO Final Fantasy XIII-2 is the best FF game released in YEARS. It's not as good as the classics, but it feels a hell of a lot more like the old games, with exploration, and jsut for fun moments. Plus it's Final fantasy's first attempt at an interactive story, with pretty well pulled off QTEs, dialog choices, and the ability to move during some cutscenes (this is especially well done with Noel's backstory at the end)
Here's the thing though. If you really like FFXIII for its story. Like you really liked the characters? XIII-2 DESTROYS all that. This game takes itself far less seriously than XIII did, and shatters the old, realistic-ish tone to pieces.
But I'm okay with that because we got a vastly superior game

Pretty much. She's in teh intro and the ending, and makes minor cameos sometimes

I'm pretty sure being screwed out of money is a universal thing

Hm
In my experience, going on the phone and sounding agitated, and maybe kinda sorta suggesting you might take legal action works

Young Xehanort's hard, I guess, but the real threat was Ansem
But you were basically on easy mode anyways so yeah...

Most Likely to Win the Most Awards (Needs rewording >.>)

I'm assuming they have an eyepatch or it's closed, or missing or something
or maybe like, reading a news paper?

What if you look at the guy with one eye

Ew NO

How can I be jelly, there's nothing to be jelly of, macrosoft already won the console war

Sforzato confirmed telekinetic

The Xbox is going to be so big they'll have to call themselves Macrosoft

But he's using his brain to deny the fact of reality... that's not healthy

Nothing to see here folks moving on
