Remember when everyone shit their pants in 2013 because Xbox One was going to have always-on DRM? Why did people stop fighting for their consumer rights.

No one taught their kids why it's important.

They're literally just waiting out the clock

I didn't. My PS5, Switch and PC can all work offline fortunately.

It shouldn't be.
But it is.
You dumb motherfucker.
These consoles will be fucked when they lose online.

Now it won't be an "actual problem" because the piracy scene is full of geniuses so you'll just be able to drop whatever game you want on these like the Wii. How many legit PS2 games do you play today anyway? And not just on a emulator or on the console with ethernet or a hard drive. And that console is actually usable without internet.

It's nothing.

But I guess gamers gotta reeeee, as they do. Muh rights!

Xbone was going to be much much worse than what current games are doing

STFU OP, you fucking get with the program you stupid onions boy

here, I’ll lay it out for you real easy

if its Snoy its shit and gay
if its Microsoft its fucking amazing

ok? now stop being a baby killing groomer and buy fucking Gamepass.

its the same situation as the 9th of November when the towers fell. we give up a little freedom to go kill Osama, stop being an fucking baby, Snoy bad Xbox good

Consumers are really fucking stupid, they'll accept hoaxes and outright garbage. Too bad our entire society is structured around satisfying the idiot whims of consumers to take their dollars. Makes our society seem kind of stupid and pointless, doesn't it?

this never happened
you can play physical games fully offline just fine
those you got from gamepass or live gold need online to boot obviously

>Why did people stop fighting for their consumer rights.
Because it became cool to suck corpo cock
This is the future >we chose

It was actually a Sony campaign.
And then Sony added in the same shit a gen later.

No you can't, not in the way you're implying anyways. Some Series X games will work on a SeX but Xbone games need to connect to the servers to work through backwards compatibility. Lots of SeX games also don't have the full game on the disc like Halo Infinite.

People should sue Microsoft for shit like that. Their servers should never go down if they're going to sell items that require always online functions.

People used to develop racist ideas when they saw one African on the streets, now they ignore giant BLM riots like it's nothing.

>muh le snoy

Don't forget how everyone was pissed at the Kinect surveillance thing.
A few years later and people bought Amazon Alexa.

I dont' purchase anything that has DRM

>should
Nigga 13 year olds are chopping off their breasts it's over my dude.

He's right though. No one gives a fuck about le drm except snoy shills
>b-b-but i can't play for a few days
Grow up

and? got something to hide chud?

Don't feed the shitposter (you)s.

>Why did people stop fighting for their consumer rights
Talking about how powerful and brave CORPORATION is for putting niggers and trannies in their media became more important than talking about how evil CORPORATION is.

There are definitely people who still play old PS2 games on console--same with these guys who play their old SNES and NES games. Especially speed runners who want to prove their times on real hardware. It is niche sure but that is to be expected--the bulk of normalfags sell a game after they beat it or throw it somewhere and never touch it again and that is IF they finish it. Thats the bulk of humanity. But it doesn't mean that people who still play their old favorites don't exist.

How come I always see pkeks seething about it then?

It's okay when Xbox does it.

PC MASTER RACE WINS YET AGAIN

Cuz they are autistic and retarded

>Xbone games need to connect to the servers to work through backwards compatibility
Isn't that just cause of the retarded way MS does back compat?
Instead of playing from your disc it only acts as a license that lets you download a customized version of the game for your specific console from Xbox servers.
This is why licensing for the back compat 360 and OG games was such a pain in the ass cause it was legally an entirely new release whereas something like PS1 disc games on PS3 was not.

Was this outage a burger thing? I've had no issues all weekend, even checked the Xbox Status website yesterday and it was fine. The only place I've heard about the outage is on Yea Forums lol

Because the tech at the time wasn't up to par. Sony doing the same thing now shows what the plan really was

it happened for me but disc games worked

Society IS pointless. There is no end goal besides keeping us alive as long as we can pay.

Watch out corporate representative, that kind of talk disparaging people with challenges could have you lose your comfy social media shill job

reproduction carts and emulators exist. especially with these newer consoles, they'll just be hacked and played digitally

it's a non-issue until they make it so servers aren't up for a decade+ after the console's lifespan is over

Crazy how people are now just noticing this issue with the Series -consoles. You can't even finish first time setup without being connected to the internet.

>Why did people stop fighting for their consumer rights
Because there are "problems" hailed as more important in gaming industry. For example, women representation, diversity, racism. Everything is about these "issues" today so other issues, real issues, are pushed away from the public eye, they don't get as much attention so the companies don't get any pushback for making these kind of anti-consumer decisions.

>my PS5
What about GT7?

Which modern consoles besides switch lets me download a digital singleplayer game and then play it with no internet connection?

>Was this outage a burger thing?
isn’t everything?

>Why did people stop fighting for their consumer rights.
because microsoft said trans rights

it's one shit game, you still can play all games you bought offline indefinitely and like a week or a month for ps plus games

user, the PCSX2 emulator sucks dick. It still has huge graphical glitches on notable games compared to fucking emus like Dolphin or Cemu that are for newer systems. PS2 emulation will never be the same as playing on console.

Notice how the picture in OP talks about "some" users. Somehow these outages always avoid my Xbox. Meanwhile nobody could play GT7 when the servers went down. The only difference is that MS games in general rely on online too much and Sony is just now begins to make games with serious online components.

Burgers are always mad but unfortunately we're always mad about the wrong things. Instead of being mad about having the rich steal all our money and openly bribe the government, we sit and complain about someone saying a prohibited word or worthless modern video games working in 2040

Because it is a non issue 99% of the time. People didn't complain about GT Sport always online until GT7 showed their purchase is useless when the servers crap themselves.

then buy a ps2 and a harddrive for $30 total and play every game perfectly

corporations always win. they know how to slowly widen the consumers asshole.

The regular normalfag thinks ads on youtube are normal and expected

Because Xdrones are more delusional than Nintendo fans
And just because I didn't mention Sony doesn't mean they're doing something good, it just means they're just better off slightly from Nintendo's lack of online presence and Xboxs failure of DRM/antipiracy Microsoft logic that hinders them since the 360

because leftoids made it mainstream to gargle corporations and CIA narratives
/thread

>nobody could play
I could still do offline and music rally
>b-b-buh
But nothing you fucking cretin. I also have a back catalog of games to play if GT7 servers are down. Because it's only one game aa opposed to the entirety of my xbox library being rendered unplayable.

Holy cope.

>le works on my le machine
what a cope

literally do anything else you fucking losers lmao imagine only playing video games 24/7 get a hobby nerds

it's exhausting to continue fighting for one's gamer rights when the normies constantly fight you with their wallets. eventually you just think fuck it and drop out of the race. the corpo scum know this, that's why they do what they do and continue winning, because they have the normies on their side.

>Always online anything. Ever.

There are ads on youtube? I totally forgot.

>ps5
>no refunds, unlike competitors
>make you rebuy your ps2/1 games again on the ps3 AND ps4
>worst value online service, especially if you just want to play online
Let's not pretend Sony is any better.

Because amerishits flooded all political discourse with nigger worship to distract from class issues

FUCK NORMIES I HATE THEM SO FUCKING MUCH
>t. aspie

No one is, it's just irrelevant to the topic of whether you can access your games when the servers are down.

Honestly,I like how Xbox DRM works. This issue is happening because of game sharing.

For offline games, if you are not on your main Xbox, the person who bought the game need to sign in, it's good that you can play games on 2 different consoles or PC at the same time with the same purchase, I play a lot with my son like this. This is not possible on Steam.

Shut the fuck up eurotard
