Don't worry about sounding like a fanboy. Xbox One is the first console in the industries history where actively hating it doesn't make you a fanboy; it just makes you in possession of all the facts.

And that makes my head hurt... how can anyone defend it and *gasp* plan to buy one?... my mind boggles.

Why does this thread keep appearing as locked momentarily?

Mod battle?

Computer, initiate translate software; library 104216truthfactpl.dll



In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have gotten the translation software with Professor Layton and C-3PO on the cover.

I appreciated this translation

what is happening

one of the mods is a secret Microsoft shill confirmed. My money is on Dragona

Ah, got it. Was confused as hell for a second.

Locked and unlocked thread? Mod fight?

mud fight

Am I imagining this thread being repeatedly locked and unlocked?

+1 Confirm.

No. But it only adds more suspense. E3 fun times begin

Did you tell them to stay the fuck outta gaming then?

 

[Revven]

Based CBOAT, we thank you for this information.

Man, fucking Xbone is boned.

 

[Boost]

Seriously, I read CBOAT post like

Thankfully, I speak internet, so now everything is gravy!

 

[Xplatformer]

What's up with this thread.

Microsoft trying to crack down on GAF???

How much do I have to tip them to stop circumcising this thread?

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Man it seem like cloud is always about DRM. Cloud for Sim City to make it more powerful, Daiblo 3 is pretty much a cloud you play on since the AI or something is stored on their servers with the gamer having the client.

The reason they need so many servers is to prevent a D3 or Sim City situation. I bet they must have been sweating when they saw Error 33 or whatever Sim City errors were. How glorious will it be if Xbone Cloud is brought to it's knees on launch? I say glorious because it was Glorious for D3 and SC and I was a victim for the D3 one. A whole console not being able to play any game would be a bigger situation by mind boggling proportions by comparison.

 

[SMT]

Would this not imply that if DRM games come out on the PS4...


MS: Publishers, we're forcing you to go with this DRM!
Pubs: Uh, ok then...

Pubs: Sony, we're forcing you to use this DRM!
Sony: Uh, ok then...

I dunno man, I don't think Sony is the White Knight some people are building them up to be.

Sony appears during the last part of the FE X SMT trailer, where it gets all cheery, and the hairs on your head start raising.

Sony is Chrom.
Nintendo is U.
Microsoft and pubs are the Risen.

I guess it does just look like ranting gibberish to the unknowing.

When really it's a beautifully crafted work of genius. The leak equivalent of a Jackson Pollack.

Snake! SnaaaaaaaaAAAKE!!!

I like to tell people that CBoat is simply Moses. Some believed his words, others called him a madman. But he had #truthfacts with him.

Anyways, did Cboat confirm that Prince of Persia is Xbone exclusive?

 

[UberTag]

fucking E3 hasn't even started and we already have the best thread of the year

GAF servers will be pooched tomorrow. Better to get all of the bomb drop discussion out of the way beforehand.

Now I don't feel so bad about missing the Xbone conference due to work.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

NeoGAF mods trying to hide the TRUTHFACTS

 

[Killthee]

nah cant be true, ftp with gold needed. cant even fathom or process that.

That's how it works on the 360. There's a F2P game named Happy Wars that requires Gold to play.

All of this is rather undermined by the fact that only Xbox Live Gold subscribers can currently play, with no word regarding whether non-Gold subscribers will be given the chance to jump in. Hence, to actually play this "free-to-play" game, you need to be paying a subscription fee.

Of course, this can be seen as a shallow niggle given that Xbox Live Gold offers many more features on top of simply allowing access to this one game, but it still means that Happy Wars is technically not free-to-play at all -- rather, it's a freebie for subscribers with in-app purchases thrown in.

Given that Sony's own PlayStation Plus scheme gives away dozens of games for free every year (including brand new releases), the "free" elements to Happy Wars begin to look less and less appealing.

[SatelliteOfLove]

wow shocking
so 3rd parties were not the initiators of the DRM bomb?
but then they get thrown under the bus
must not feel so great

Oh wow, I didn't notice this. Man. E3 for the ages, mang. Wow.

 

[eddfromtheriver]

Getting a Xbox day one but not wishing Microsoft any success this upcoming generation.

Well... don't you get one for free?... or at least a discount?

A mod once banned cboat by accident thinking it was a drunk thread. :lol

 

[falconzss]

Oh wow. Thank you based CBOAT!

 

[grandjedi6]

I'm not surprised that Activision is the least supportive of the DRM Big 3.

Also we should all be vigilant for his No mentioning PS4 version warning.

 

[Tallshortman]

lol MS actually paying real dollar monies just so publishers don't confirm a PS4 version until later (which will get leaked hours after anyway) is the saddest thing I've heard so far. They're so desperate it's like watching a train wreck.

 

[kewlmyc]

Wow, that's fucking depressing. Thanks anyway. GO CBOAT.

 

[Ashes]

shoo shoo off topic mods.

It's E3, doncha know?

 

[rdrr gnr]

A mod once banned CBOAT

Weird mods don't know given he is probably the single most valuable poster in the last year.

Edit: Beaten/IDK

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

They should issue a public apology to the great CBOAT!

 

[Pristine_Condition]

YOOOO, THAT AL SNOW REF HAHAHHA

I would have used a Reno Riggins reference, but I have a connoisseur's taste in jabronis.

No, just that some kind of Prince of Persia will be shown at MS conference, possibly a bribed nonmention of PS4 multiplat

Just watched that recently, I love that gif!

cboat da fucking god. stay safe and thanks for the infogloves

Yes a MS shill mod was locking the thread and trying to shut the other mods down!*

Spoiler

jk

bish once banned CBOAT

DAMMIT BISH NO

 

[Talamius]

Late to the thread, but cboat even worked in an al snow reference? We don't deserve you.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

I'm not surprised that Activision is the least supportive of the DRM Big 3.

Activision doesn't need that since they're going to get paid either way every November.

 

[Minions]

I wonder how much Microsoft has spent just for this conference paying publishers to only show at their conference.

Seems like a waste of money in the long run as gamescom all the games will likely be shown for both consoles.

I wonder how esram is going to affect console prices. I doubt Microsoft will announce a price any time soon with that variable still uncertain.

 

[PumpkinPie]

What's the point in cboat typing like a drunk so that his posts aren't picked up when someone else just makes threads about his revelations using perfectly-typed English? Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

 

[bigtroyjon]

The 360 has f2p games, why would them continuing to require gold be news to people?

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I guess we should be impressed that even #TeamCBoaT couldn't break through Sony's silence.

 

[Crash Station]

Sorry certain off-topic mods don't seem to understand the CBOAT.

Evilore needs a whole CBOAT section for mod orientation.
