RE: We supported them with money, they give us more shit. Thank you video game companies...

I'm with you! I still love my retro game systems. I remember a time when you turned on the system and it just played the game. Now I turn on my Xbox one every couple weeks and the damn thing has to update for an hour. That is usually the only hour I have to play. I really don't care about the updates and just want to play the game on the disc. But there isn't a way to put it off until the next time. And I pay $60 for a game that I can't play without doing incessant OS updates. :(

they need to protect your xbox from hackers lmao... I don't know with this updates... they really seem this days that they are just there to give the impression that the company is behind you and helps you...

Well I suppose that is one big advantage of modern gaming systems is being able to play online with other people. That also needs protection from hackers. Usually when I am playing I just want to play offline. I figure that they could push the updates to the background so I can play right away. Sadly I think a lot of the more simple old games were more fun. When you bought a game they didn't ask for extra money in game. Dlc's for computer games used to be expected for free. Now they charge for a couple extra levels or sadly for a coat as you mentioned in your post.

yeah...too bad we are not as united as a community as we should be... When the first DLC was released, nobody should have bought it... Because that was the start...
