: So we can continue to boycott/hate on publishers who do this shit on the PC,
: with the added bonus of doing on the neXbox too.

: I feel sorry for the console-centric devs who fall under such publishers.

Hm. Well, if it's not applicable for the whole system, then that's fine. So long as the console doesn't become a brick when either my internet or the XBL servers go down, I'll consider getting one. But if any publisher requires me to be constantly online to play a game like what Activision did with Diablo III or what EA did with Sim City, well, they shouldn't expect my support. I shouldn't have to be online unless I'm playing an actual online game or game mode like an MMO or multiplayer matchmaking in a shooter. Always-online is an absolute joke, and is completely unnecessary for console titles.
