No it isn't. It doesn't do everything.

The Xbox is set to automatically log into Xbox Live.
The Xbox can be set to automatically launch a game when you put it in.
So what are you talking about?
So when you said "adding all this stuff is not positive for me" what you meant is "anything they do is irrelevant to me as I do not own an Xbox."

but fuck it.. I´m obviously very wrong and fucked up in my head for having my own opinion. sorry for that.. just write down your opinion and I will adopt to it.
You kind of made your own point, everybody it entitled to their opinion. You put your message out there, so you should not be suprised if somebody goes in on it. No offense, but if you go the whole ''Its my opinion, deal with it'' route, you could have just made a blog post. This is for all intent purposes a discussion board.Hanmik said:but fuck it..

and about the "not positive for me" stuff.... the other consoles out there follow the same recipe. Facebook, videoservices etc.. they are also on the console I´m using at the moment..

But this isn't a problem with the 360. Game updates take <1 minute (their sizes are capped), and firmware updates (which come once every 3-6 months) take 1-3 minutes. Your complaint doesn't speak to a problem with anyone's emphasis on non-gaming features, it speaks to Sony's horrendous patching system.

Hanmik said:The problem here is that xbhaskarx isn´t trying to discuss or disagree.. he is only stating the he think I am trolling on the X360. I like to discuss stuff.. but not like that..
you are right here. Sorry for the confusion.. the X360 is updating MUCH faster. I just think it is a long process (like I think it is on the other consoles) to start a game, compared to last gen. All consoles today have some start up screen, sign in (can be automated), start game screen and more.. all this makes the process of gaming take more time than it used to.

Well, to be fair he did say "mock if old."Firewire said:So he can't state anything negative about a console he clearly owns because he has an avatar from a game that is exclusive to another console? Console warrior indeed.

Hanmik said:And no I do NOT own an X360. I had one but it got RROD, and because I live in a very small country it is/was not so easy to get a new one under waranty. In fact X360 is only sold through one shop up here. Because of the troubles (and the price) shops has to go through to, to get the console repaired, most shops stopped selling X360. For 2 years NOT one single shop sold X360, just last year one shop began selling them again (when the Slim was released). ... ahh damn, I could have spared myself this text, you made up your mind the minute you saw my avatar anyway-.-
jred2k said:He really should have said it isn't JUST a gaming console. I never realized people such as Hanmik could be so against having options. I suppose a lot of it is regional, but I have several people on my friends list that use their console just as much, if not more, for Netflix as they do for movies.

Hanmik said:I´m not 100% against it... but living in a country as I do (The Faroe islands..) we do not have any of options available.. Most of the services are not available in our region. Sometimes you get the button for the Service, and when you press it, it says "not available in your region".. so we just have stuff on our XMB or Dashboard, that takes up space but we cannot use. I can understand that for people living in the US or UK that the thing is living up to be an entertainment center, but for people in (most) other countries, it does not live up to that.

This whole viral argument thing is really getting out of hand. By your definition everybody on this board is some kind of viral marketeer.Azelover said:They are the ones that can get away with it. Believe me, their viral marketing teams have the gaming communities totally controlled.
