I have been banned since my very stupid choice to test out the Halo 3 beta. However - haven't heard a complaint from my xboxing friends - so it probably works here in Sweden.

Were are the times when you switched on your console and started playing right away, no network crap, and definatelly no crashing/bugging issues. I really have no idea if the joy of these consoles will ever come back.
We don't want any network environment or some bloody OS, we want a game console.

Can't be right, Bill Gates has said he plans to make XBox the most stable console in the WORLD Rolling Eyes

@Ozieo - the consoles (now) are more like a PC than ever!
Just a pathetic excuse to allow shabby developers to release sub-standard software (like the PC) and to patch it online.
With the rubbish comments from them; 'you get demos, EXTRA content' Yeah, but you PAY for it via having broadband AND using one of their exclusive services!!!

What exactly did devs do with the PS1 and PC before online was the 'in thing'? They made sure that games were as bug free as possible, is the answer. Sure we got PC patches, like kbs on a floppy for the odd game, but no SHOW stopping garbage like todays games -regardless of millions of lines of code! Ever heard of 'quality over quantity' dev's?

Corporate greed
