I understand there's a logical fallacy there, but it's also a matter of convenience that justifies it. Want something at midnight on release? You no longer have to wait around a bunch of neckbeards. You also don't have to preorder or even get out of the house for your games now.

Of course, if you have a data cap, you're stuck with physical.

I did consider that, it still just seems weird to me. It's still a very valid point though, so I can't really say much to it. :p

I can easily see disk drives being phased out in the future but SD cards will become more popular. I can see future games coming out on SD cards since they are getting bigger and smaller and consoles will adapt do it.

I was thinking more on the lines of, when the physical copy drops to $20 in store it should also drop to $20 for digital.

I prefer physical media. There's nothing like the excitement of buying a game you've been looking forward to for months or even years, then having to wait til you get home to play it; AND you have an actual thing in your hands to look at and worship. A shelf full of games is a joy to behold.

Ben is talking about how the Kinect is tied to the consoles UI and that Microsoft would have to make a Kinectless UI so the console can be used.


This. Well, I guess it's not TIED, because you're able to use the Xbone without the Kinect. The thing about it is the UI was built around the Kinect being used, so I don't see MS just dropping it anytime soon.


I've heard a lot of people talking about how it's nearly impossible to navigate the Xbone with controllers alone, and that the voice commands are the only way they can find what they want. If that's the case, a Kinect is almost essential, which really is shitty.

That could not be further from the truth.

It has a UI. It has a controller. One works through the other.

I know it's cool to hate on the Bone right now but that is absurd.

I wouldn't know. I've not watched it.

Your move.

To be fair, he also has Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Wayne's World. Instant redemption.
