Kotaku: Xbox 720 online required to start up and play games!?

[Fatboi1]

For some reason, I just don't think it will be as extreme as the internet is making it seem to be. I just can't fathom Microsoft REALLY being this stupid.

Next step will be requiring live gold to play anything other than demos

To interact with my friend's list and see what games they're playing... I might want to play some matches of something with them when I'm done with the game I'm on.

Just basic communication stuff. Sony is implementing that share feature so people can stream their gameplay with their friends while it's going on too.

People on Xbox Live play campaigns and chat with friends in party chat all the time.

I just don't see the point of going out of your way to logout of PSN or XBox Live while playing a single player game.

What about the people that has bad signals.. Or people that has cabins and lake house, summer homes with no Internet? They just want to play that games cause they bored. What about countries that does not have good Internet? They cutting out a lot of customers for no reason. I usually buy all systems every generation but I might pass if they are doing something this stupid when I love playing single player games..

yeah, the fact they had "no further comment on this matter" does not look good. this was their opportunity to shoot down these rumors, and they didn't take it, at all

There not stupid.MS simply thinks that is doesn't matter and they are right from a business standpoint.

Who do you think is more important to MS? The gamers who pay for Live or the ones who don't? If I were in they're place I'd probably make the same call.

A good amount of Xbox fans are willing to put up with anything MS does.If they don't have internet they will go get it. Simple.

These are the same people that thought a tablet OS on a desktop was a great idea...

They REALLY are that stupid...
