Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'

Inafune still hating on the Japanese game industry

I sometimes wonder why he doesn't just move to America and start a new game company there. :P

Seeing more and more rumors and sources saying the 720 will need an internet connection to run, tolerating only 3 minutes of disconnection.

Source is Kotaku but I can't pull it up here.

How stupid are they?

They have 2 sources on it and state it's a rumor, so they're not that stupid... just on their redesign.
If it is true though, they're shooting themselves in the foot.

It's bad enough they charge $100 for a wireless adapter and $60 a year to play online... you could buy another system (Wii price I guess) with the money to get the fucking thing online today. This is why I stopped playing on it.

By they I meant MS. I apologize. Kotaku (and Gawker Media as a whole) can be a little sketchy on sources but if they express confidence I always lean towards trusting them

Ah I see.


And... what is this? lol. It hasn't been confirmed, but Microsoft says they don't see the problem with an "always on" device. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

And what about people who are moving and don't get internet right away? When I moved to my apartment I played Forza HOrizon for 3 days without connecting, don't see the world ending there.

Microsoft on yesterday's Adam Orth Twitter drama: "We apologize for the inappropriate comments made by an employee on Twitter yesterday. This person is not a spokesperson for Microsoft, and his personal views do not reflect the customer centric approach we take to our products or how we would communicate directly with our loyal consumers. We are very sorry if this offended anyone, however we have not made any announcements about our product roadmap, and have no further comment on this matter."


No comments on the matter? Isn't that usually a bad sign?

#Yes.

If they aren't denying the always on, at this point it's safe to assume it's there.

It's strongly rumoured that Adam Orth has since been fired. See the updates down the bottom of the article.

Interestingly enough it's not his first time, either - he used to work for Fox according to this guy, and was fired for being a complete twat there, too.
