Also, must your friends also have a Netflix subscription in order for them to watch movies with you? They made it sound like anyone could watch it in the update descriptions. :(

I'll tell you what pisses me off about the new update. Games on demand does. For the rest of this rant I will be referring to it as GOD.

GOD is ridiculous. I could see believing in GOD if it offered something that you couldn't get for cheap on Ebay. GOD is charging Walmart prices or higher, for something you can't trade back in after you wear it out. There needs to be some kind of discount or incentive for GOD to make sense. What is sad is that a bunch of idiots will willingly and blindly follow GOD even though there is absolutely no return on investment. Hopefully people will realize that GOD is a scam and not buy into GOD's lies. Hopefully Microsoft will realize that GOD is not what we need. Not like this, anyway.

Microsoft? Where is your GOD now?



I have issues with the idea of god...

Oh wait were talking about the update. I dont see games on demand to be that bad, I never trade in games, its not worth it. 5 bucks? Its not worth the gas money. I mean sure if other people use your console or you commonly play at different locations they could be annoying, but for someone like me i think they could work on an occasion of boredom, if they ever put any good/ games on it (that I don't already have)for a an at least an equal to store price.

then again, I probably wont be using the feature unless they start putting new games on it...

I agree with you 100%. No one should buy any of those games until they make them ATLEAST the same price as in store or even discounted cheaper than store cost since you don't get the disc, case, or game manual.

The achievement tracker is the only new feature that's worth a damn. I don't use my netflix enough to care and they've added nothing to the avatar store that I feel like wasting my credits on.
edit: OK, the Bioshock stuff and the guitar prop are kinda cool.

I'm the opposite, I think the new setup is way more accessible and easier to navigate.

I'm pretty sure when I looked @ Mass Effect before it said 29.99 the only games I saw for 20 were viva pinata and need for speed carbon I think

^^ This guy knows what I'm saying!!

Yeah, you can get Mass Effect for 14.99 used at Gamestop. GOD has failed. I can go on Ebay and get every one of those games for AT LEAST 5buxx less and have it delivered to my door. If I don't have the actual game disc, what am I supposed to smash when the game pisses me off?
