Microsoft are paying them to defend them from their own downfall of dumb mistakes. Love how microsoft said, "We Listened To Our Fans" haha, The dumbest PR's in the industry.
Edit: I was being sarcastic lol. I do believe that they had something to do with amazon though.

Nice response from a person who loves being told how to play your games lol.
To be fair microsoft doesnt really have any great 1st party studios. Rare isnt even rare anymore, they are like insomniac. So they need alot of 3rd party exclusives to make up for their weak studios. Sony & Nintendo on the other hand is a SURE THING when it comes to 1st party games, the world knows they can deliver & they are the ones who will showcase the hardware. A good example is the last of us vs any exclusive on the 360. There isnt one to even be on that same quality.

Problem is xbox one ppl keep saying its more next gen then the ps4 but how do they figure if it cant play offline games? If it is so next gen and is suppose to be the all in one box machine then your basically telling a user that has no internet connection that they can play games even with no online connection which is all lies & is not even next gen. If the atari 2600 can play offline games why cant the xbox one? So much for next gen haha.

Cool i was planning on buying an xbox one aswell but u see my brother is in the army & asked if i can send him one of the new consoles & i decided to buy him a ps4 because i dont want to send a xbox one out there only to find out he couldnt use it as a gaming rig but prolly make a better weapon or a shield haha. So yeah atleast with the ps4 it will work for him. Thank u sony for giving gamers rights to play our games how we like to. =]
I think the last of us is going to smash records for its genre sales wise.
Wow the launch sku still hasnt sold out yet for the xbone. lol been up there for a while. Didnt the ps4 launch sku's sell out a few days ago?
The irony in that just annoys the hell out of me because we sit here & tell u time after time with cold hard FACTS but yet it feels like The OJ trial all over again. So much evidence & proof right in front of their eyes but hey, even though the restrictions dont fit my (glove) rights im still going to buy it. (not guilty) Lol I hope that made sense but thats why i willvoice my opinion. Spread the word so this can teach microsoft a lesson.
See the problem with just sitting here & trying to not pick any sides is because yes, everyone has a choice to choose what console they prefer & I have nothing against that but the problem is if we sit here & act like everything is fine & dandy why sit there & watch these guys choose a product that were not buying anyways but it still hurts the whole gaming industry as a whole & screws even those like us who were smart enough to avoid that product but because we didnt ...
Microsoft screwed themselves just by not letting anyone play offline. That is already 10 to 20 million + users gone if we go by 360 install base & they really think they can reach a billion sales haha. Them & their loyal fanbase who choose to still buy this restriction box will fail, maybe even worser then the original xbox. The US is already in favor of the ps4 & it will only get bigger for the ps4 as ppl start to realise how restricted the xbox one is.
Your not alone. I been spreading the word to all my friends & family members who play games on facebook & they been doing the same. As gamers we should spread the word & make it so bad that maybe microsoft will have no choice but to remove all the stupid restrictions but seeing as how arrogant they been lately, i really hope it backfires on them.
I know its all opinion but how do i take these sites serious when they give remember me a 90 & the last of us a 80? Smh
Edit: The worst is when the reviewer says its by far naughty dogs best game & gives it an 8 or lower or they will say its the best ps3 game & give it a 7 or 8. I mean how the hell does that even make any freakin sense?
Exactly mate. Thanx for clarifying it all up & I totally agree with you. People need to wake up, everything microsoft is trying to add with these restrictions is the same thing as them making u pay to access facebook, youtube, & netflix only difference is this is even worse & are you seriously just going to let them take those things away from u? Its not even about being a fanboy, this affects the whole gaming industry.
The thing thats worse then that is when u guys cant admit the reason ps plus is now added to ps4 as a paid subscription. So answer this. Wasnt it microsoft who started this & was successful & paved the way for others to do this? Because as far as im concerned if xbl never existed in the 1st place then we wouldnt be having this discussion.
2nd off you guys are making it out as if xbl & ps plus are the same service when its not even close. Ps plus offers way more ba...
Trust me i bet naughty dog will bring a mode like that with later dlc. They always bring new modes.
Well said, mate & couldn't agree more.
Im so happy for Naughty Dog & glad to see it having a great success. If you go to the comment section of the article, I love reading ppls thoughts of the game. There was atleast 10 ppl who said they were in tears with the game & I totally understand what they are talking about. The story was so amazing that reading others have that same feeling, it makes it feel like all of us have a connection & its freakin awesome because thats just how awesome of a developer Naughty Dog is and ...
Ok so now your saying this is ok. Why is it such a big deal to u guys then that sony is charging for ps plus? You question sony but yet your the ones who made this happen by paying for xbl & telling the gaming industry that its ok to charge gamers for online and as ive said way back before these 2 consoles the ps4 & xbone even existed, dont be surprised if sony & nintendo follow suit & its already starting to come a reality. Nintendo might not do it now but trust me, they will...
Its too bad most 360 fans could careless about story driven games. If Alan Wake was a ps3 exclusive it would have sold a couple million copies. My proof is heavy rain. Most 360 fans bashed it yet it still sold over 2.5 million copies world wide. You guys need to expand your gaming portfolio & stop buying the same few games thats why even with the install base the 360 has now Alan Wake only sold 1.2 million copies & it was a really good game.

Dont worry mate sony has already won this battle between microsoft. Now its just Nintendo they are going against. Microsoft will be not only last in sales, they will be DEAD LAST. They will be lucky to surpass the original xbox.
