Quote from: "Shiranu"You care about how someone feels if you expect to dominate a market of those people.

I'm not sure is gamers have shown this to be true. IIRC, gamers tend to complain and then buy it anyway.

That's what we're trying to stop from happening.

While I think there is certainly... very poor consumer choices from gamers.... I think at the same time you can only screw someone over, no matter how stupid of spender they are, for so long or so much before they decide not to buy your product. For so many gamers, used games is a make or break deal; we simply don't have the money to drop $60 a pop every time. That is an actual issue, as opposed to the small issues that tend to get blown out of proportions.

Quote from: "Farroc"I don't understand what your problem is Johan. The new Xbox is completely anti-consumerist and unfair, and some of us are trying to do something about it. Not all of us have internet...
We don't like this because it requires internet and not all of us have internet. But what can we do? I know, lets build a boycott website. Hilarious. Just hilarious.


Quotewe're doing this because Microsoft turning into a bunch money-hungry corporate asses.

That is a minor issue for Americans, but for most of the world that is a huge issue (Including again, 3 huge markets... Pakistan, India and Latin America).

The main issues Americans are protesting is the used game policies and the fact that Microsoft is telling consumers to go fuck themselves.

How? Microsoft use to have integrity, now it doesn't. Alot of corporations take pride in their work if that is what you are implying. Just because your bottom line is money doesn't mean you don't take pride in your work.

I don't see what's so hilarious about people in countries with no internet access not being able to get the latest games they cherish.And you forgot to mention the fact that we would no longer own the games that we paid 60$ for. I know this is meaningless to you, but some people take this very seriously and all I'm asking is that you at least respect that instead of mocking us. Also, if you expect me to return your hate and hostility you're going to be disappointed.

You don't see what's funny about a boycott website for a product because people can't use it if they don't have internet?

QuoteAnd you forgot to mention the fact that we would no longer own the games that we paid 60$ for.
Ever buy music from itunes? Think you own it? Does Apple seem worried about losing sales?

Box sets are often over $50.

Yes, but you get multiple songs. If you were to buy a "Box Set" of videogames it would costs hundreds of dollars.
