WTF ? if you pay for content you download you should have the right to keep it, aslo adding things to give you the upper hand in any game offline or online is just wrong, this marketplace thing is going too far now and the price of things like the graw add ons are way over priced :( and games like pacman and frogger should be free :| please dont ruin our enjoyment of games. Also the xbox anchormen are on a mission to contact bill gates, if anyone can point us in the right direction then visit our website www.thexboxanchormen.moonfruit.com, i did try and contact major nelson but all i got was an auto responce :|

"Consumables" is a stupid, stupid idea.

You will drive away your gamer audience; and yes, you will do it. Sixty Dollars and up and now THIS?!

Marketing ruins anything it touches, and now I read this.

For once could the marketing people leave us the f**k alone? Because if I have to pay money for ammo or anything else that would prevent from finishing a retail game (and NO, NO "kinda-sorta" endings count against this), then this 360 LEAVES my home and does not come back. EVER.

Understand, I have my 360 to "Finish the Fight", but if see or hear about this stupid concept in Halo3, I will change that to "F**K this Fight".

I have many, many, other choices in the world today - so help me God, you guys do this, I will drop gaming cold. Don't try me guys because I can do it.

Because this is NOT gaming, this isn't even close. Remember that.

Pop culture advertising and marketing needs to get out. Now.

"boris said: Major Nelson: Any comment on the banning for XBOX 360? Are you going to let the modded 360 pass just like that or are you people really working on that issue? I mean, modded xbox 360 really speeds up console sales, so is that why no action is taken against modded consoles?" Yep , one of the reasons is cause now consoles are selling more and Microsft wants to achieve the 10 million XBox360 sold. but hackers yesterday made a hack that makes the Xbox360 think that it isnt really hacked , they say it looks 100% original and a ban would be 1 in a million , also they state that Microsoft cant do anything cause the console southbridge cant do a check on the hack , the only way to fight it would be to implement new hardware on the next consoles batch.

Thanks for posting these videos. As I was listening I was constantly saying "I wish I could see this!". Also, based on listening to this I went and played Marble Blast Ultra on XBLA - I downloaded it months ago but never played it. I played through all the demo levels. It really was a lot of fun, I might just buy it.

Wow, so PPV on game consoles is going to be PPP? Pay-per-play? Frankly, we're already charged for XBL and I might add that we don't get dedicated servers for what we pay (some games might have dedicated servers, but the rest of the games are basically like P2P and Microsoft is just charging for the service of hooking up people to play games). Now they want to create a real-life consumable in games where something you buy actually runs out over time? That is simply ridiculous!

This sort of system might work for an MMORPG or something like that, but 99% of the games out there do NOT need any sort of crappy consumables. It's bad enough game companies decide to rape us with DLC like LOTR: BFMEII's 3 maps for 700 points!!! Nearly $10 for a mere 3 maps!? That's outrageous!

saying your kid has ADD, is the governments way of drugging your kid the day it leaves the mom's womb. Kids can and shall not be energetic, for they are a threat to the tiranny in place. Sure there are kids that have a hard time concetrating, or handling more then one 'task' at a time, does that make them sick? does that make it necessary to drug them? I, for one, don't think so.

@shut up, have to agree, allthough there are probly kids that really do have something serious, the problem is that they lowered the standards of becoming an ADD person considerably.. Kids aren't aloud to be noisy and roudy anymore.. They have to sit quiet and do as they are told.. if they don't cause they wanna play and be kids, it's abnormal and they're sick....

<I>It really isn't cool to make fun of ADD...... 2 of my cousins were born with it and it's actually ruining their lives.</i>

ADD doesnt exist, its an excuse for bad parenting. i was born in 81 and never knew a kid with it but yet EVERYKID has it today?

Change ADD to OAD... Overactive Adrenaline Disorder. Carl Edwards has that, because he does those backflips.
