Please tell me this is a joke, you're posting on NeoGAF about the possibility of paying £$400/500 for a games console you dont NEED, but want, and you talk about always on and other such stuff? I cant work people out sometimes, where do you plan to take the console, to your toilet? on a plane? Where was you moving your 360 or PS3 so much that requiring an internet connection is that bad? you're posting on NeoGAF! your internet is just fine to send a pulse to an MS server every so often to let them know you're around, and forced voice control? guess what, the guide button will turn the console on just like it did the 360. What is up with this insane reaction? i'm gonna buy and enjoy both consoles but my word, did I drop into a timewarp? heres me thinking we're in 2013 where for 90% of the 360/ps3 users an internet connection is trivial, but apparently not, ey ey ey
