There are 450,000 DOD employees, contractors are not included in that number. Definitely not saying they will all be affected, but I can surmise that a lot of them may have been or are in a situation that can cause them to not be able to access the internet daily. Not only that but the Military force has turnover. There are A LOT of people who deployed at least once and got out of the Military. They will definitely be more sensitive to the whole internet policy as well. This is not including Reserve and Guard numbers either as it is only including active deployments. I still think the number is significant.

But we aren't here to argue that :P I want to play these consoles to even see if it's worth my coin. But for me, now they equal territory.

Playstation vs Xbox. The only topic that makes a discussion about pro-life vs pro-choice look civil and rational.

They are not useless to me I sometimes like to throw in an old game and have fun. I have a stack of Old PSOne games I still play every once in a while. That is why I’m happy Sony is talking about doing an emulator for a lot of the classic titles. With the cloud gaming those less fortunate could have played the game without spending a dime. We also would have all had lower costs on new games because the developers wouldn’t have to make all their money off of people like me.

I've had several outages last more than one day, and the "if you don't have internet you can get a 360" line is just plain ignorant. If I don't have internet, I'll get a PS4 and enjoy most of the same titles that are on the XB1. Plenty of people take consoles with them on vacation. I don't, but plenty do.

The 360 comment was an attempt to make light/humor on the stupid comment. It is true though. I agree the PS4 "was" a better choice if that was a feature you couldn’t live without.

I have huge problems with big Microsoft messing with little indie gamer, but whatever, opinions are like pizza toppings

I guess from all the time I have wasted trying indie games I am little sour towards them. The bulk of them lack so much. It’s almost like singers/bands that will never make it big. It is hard to break into the industry. We all lose in both scenarios. I feel a little spammed by indie titles. I need to stop now before I go on another rant.

Right, but PS4 will be less expensive and not require that annoying accessory.

The Kinect will eat your soul!

It's nothing revolutionary if they've been doing it on PC's for a decade. It's not revolutionary. I wish that XB1 or PS4 was offering anything of real value in terms of revolutionizing the gaming market, but they just aren't. XBox is selling you convenience features, not improving the game console.

It is to the console gaming market. I get what you’re saying though, you have seen it and know it is being done on the PC.

Likewise, Im having a blast with this!

I know I am probably late on the response

Gamestop sells used games if you are worried about losing 60 bucks, Buy the game used beat it in 7 days return it for store credit. Then guess what you don't lose all your money on a game you hate/beat in 7 days. Problem solved!

That's what gamefly is for. Every gamer needs an account so you can play those really cool games that only last 6-10 hrs without coughing up $60.

red2010z · 06-21-2013, 06:47 PM

Exactly! Problem solved for all the people crying about losing money.

red2010z · 06-21-2013, 06:50 PM

Regardless oh all the moaning and crying the Xbox and PS4 are going to make big sells. I am going to buy a Xbox console for the soul fact I love it. If I get deployed again and I can't play out here boo hoo. I got more stuff to worry about out here than my K/D on Call of Duty.

Chuck33079 · 06-21-2013, 06:52 PM

Is there any doubt we're all most likely going to end up with both? We're all dumb with money. Have you seen what we're willing to drop on car parts?
