OH FUCK THAT ANSWER!

 

[Drencrom]

Hahahah

 

[Pennywise]

Major Nelson (Larry Hryb):
Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.


HAHAHAHA

 

[L1NETT]

I am imagining all the hotshots gathered around Larry's laptop, all with different ideas about how to answer.

"No, Don we have not yet decided"

"But, Phil!"

"I say no Don, now type Larry type!"

 

[Einbroch]

What a non-answer. Holy shit. Stop. This is so embarrassing.

 

[Duxxy3]

This is pointless.

 

[AlexMogil]

Oh, it's like a riddle. Ok.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

"No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection."


HAHAHAHAH! This is PR nightmare!

 

[Aeriscloud]

What was that answer???

 

[Cake Boss]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

What the fuck does that even mean.

 

[tatotiburon]

Hi Larry. There seems to be some confusion in the media on how frequently users must connect to the internet to use the Xbox One. Will this be as frequent as once a day as rumored or will we be able to use the console for extended periods of time without an active connection? Thank you.

Major Nelson (Larry Hryb): Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

Great

 

[opticalmace]

This Q&A is pitiful.

Bunch of cop-out answers.

 

[Meelow]

Is this a half an hour long?

 

[Vico]

"It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection."

LOL

 

[sestrugen]

it does not require it but it requires it

yep, perfect sense

what. the. fuck.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

i feel embarrassed for him

 

[Thorgal]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection

lol

 

[Jonboy]

You can't make this stuff up. They don't have a friggin' clue!

 

[Zeeman]

What a nonsensical answer

 

[Partition]

Dodged again. He doesn't answer if it must connect every 24 hours or not.

 

[Wishmaster92]

This guy's picture is creeping me out.

Gates... is that you?

 

[squall211]

"Mr.Hyrb what do you believe separates the xbox one from the ps4 gaming related"

Answer: A paywall.

 

[bigol]

Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

Wow, so useful, where did i read that?

 

[YouEnjoyMySelf]

LOL

Is this real life?

 

[Salaadin]

Major Nelson (Larry Hryb): Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.


What does this even mean?

 

[Carl]

He's back to his favourite fucking stupid line that makes no sense.

 

[Iorv3th]

WTF Larry

"It doesn't have to be always connected, but it does require an internet connection".

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Good question Joe, except calling it a rumor is a little dubious since Phil Harrison said it.

 

[RdN]

Fuck that answer.. Damn.

 

[Sheeshor]

This is infuriating!

 

[Veronica]

Need Kaz to just ask something at this point.

 

[Officerrob]

They were in a tough spot; either keep quiet and keep the rumors going or address them but don't have anything concrete. Either way they were fucked. Sony is laughing at this stuff because they have been on cruise control for months now without any gaming journalists grilling them like MS is getting.

Bullshit. They see the outrage, either be forward with what you are doing, change your policies, or shut-up. This middle ground where they want to be vague while there are already comments out there is killing them

 

[Ensoul]

I've asked if I can carry on sharing disks between me and my son with the 2 Xbox 360's we have in the house.. I suspect the answer is 'no'..

Good question. I also suspect he will never answer that question but answer a question along the lines of "What was your inspiration for the console to be colored black instead of white?"

 

[Rubixcuba]

Amazing response, that doublespeak.

 

[waypoetic]

Eh, this is pointless but at least they are visible. Sony has been a ghost since February.

Where have you been these past months? Sony have talked to media, shared tech info about the console, the controller and the camera. They posted a teaser trailer the day before the Xbox reveal even. Ghosts? I think not.

 

[iNvid02]

Is this a half an hour long?

yeah but its gonna seem like a lifetime to nelson

 

[Ace Harding]

Question: Will this be as frequent as once a day as rumored or will we be able to use the console for extended periods of time without an active connection?

Answer: No.

 

[commedieu]

"It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection."

The ..feathery...jesus...

 

[L1NETT]

RIDDLE ME THIS, CONSUMERS

Arghhh

 

[Nobility]

This is going to be a rough month for the Xbox PR team...

 

[Tan]

Hi Larry. There seems to be some confusion in the media on how frequently users must connect to the internet to use the Xbox One. Will this be as frequent as once a day as rumored or will we be able to use the console for extended periods of time without an active connection? Thank you.

Great

Yup. I'm out. This is dumb.

 

[RedNumberFive]

This can't be real life!

 

[Kaldea]

What is the point of this if he can't give a straight answer about anything?

 

[Meus Renaissance]

 

[Einbroch]

Hey your question got picked!

 

[alr1ght]

dodging the question

 

[BruiserBear]

This line they keep using about always online is laughably bad. It's so blatantly splitting hairs and deceitful.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

My questions:
How does Microsoft plan to cultivate a platform for the Japanese market? How important is the Japanese market for Microsoft?
What is the relationship between Microsoft and indie developers, what tools will Microsoft offer?
How important are third party relations, including exclusive titles and content, going forward, for Microsoft?

 

[jabuseika]

Major Nelson (Larry Hryb): Answer: No. It does not have to be always connected but it does require an internet connection.

What does that even mean, who are you trying to fool here.

 

[Cake Boss]

Comment From Sam
What are Microsoft doing to welcome smaller, independent developers to the Xbox One?
