The only legitimate reason they have is #5 about the Japanese Market...

The best part is
"it's an undeniable fact that Microsoft, no matter how much marketing and wrangling they can pull off, will always play second fiddle to Sony."

Soviet accused me of stealing his points, which I didn't do. Contrary to what he believes I'm not the only one who doesn't think fondly of him.

Premium members can use a feature called thief, which is basically a 50/50 chance of stealing another person's points.

Their issue with Backwards Compatibility is a good point.


What ticks me off is the fact that if i buy a 360 i can't just go home and play Halo/Halo2 on it. No i have to go to someone elses house to download a crap emu to play it. That is a real sucker punch to a person like me. I dont have a Internet connection at my house. And i can't just go to someone house with a 360 in hand any olde time i want to download drivers.
Not to mention my buddy who is an Avid XBOX fan cant get a Internet connection even if he could afford one. Where he lives he has no other option other then Dial-up.

Seems like the 360 is really messing it up for gamers who just want to buy a nice system. I mean for godsakes, it would already cost me close to 500 dollars just to get a game and the system. Not to mention it would cost me another 100 dollars to get a Internet connection setup in my Appartment along with the first months bill. Jezzz... 600 Bucks .. I'll pass.

Microsoft should have just been able to make the 360 play any past game disk without relying on having a internet connection to play past games. That is a huge blunder in my eyes. And one of the main reason i am not getting one. I mean, i do have to pay for my Appartment, Water and Gas Bills, Car payments, food. I cant afford to set up a Net connection in my house just to play Halo.
Though i could have just afforded the core system alone... but .... no... I wouldn't be able to play past games.... sucks.

Its a real slap in the face to a person like me. Not to mention every 10's of thousands of college kids that are in the same possition as me.
