Do you understand what the phrase “break in” means? A 5-year-old didn’t “break in” or “hack” Xbox Live. He found a minor glitch. You must still be shellshocked from 2011’s PSN hack and subsequent Sony cover-up.

It’s not like Sony wanted to be hacked? What kind of moronic apologist are you that that’s your argument for why it’s okay that their crappy network had massive security flaws and their executives decided to endanger the lives of millions of people by covering it up?

“None of this constitutes hacking”

So it took a bunch of hackers to break in to PSN, yet it took a 5 year old to break in to an Xbox Live account?

Its obvious you’re a Microsoft slave with double standards. You don’t know the details of the PSN hack and its not like Sony wanted PSN to be hacked or the store to be taken offline. The PSN hack happened years ago and things have changed now. We’re not talking about who was hacked and who wasn’t. We’re talking about Microsoft’s overpriced and sh*tty service this gen.

Thanks for making me laugh.

None of those constitute ‘hacking’, and none of them even come close to one one-millionth of the damage that the 2011 PSN hack caused. Take your head out of the sand every now and then.

The 2011 PSN hack says hi.

LOL

“Xbox appealed to me because they had a good service last gen”

Is that why Xbox fanboy websites were begging Microsoft for free games last generation after PlayStation Plus came out? I wouldn’t call $60 a year for “free to play” multiplayer and a 54% console failure rate good service. Microsoft refused to extend Xbox 360 warranties until they were sued.

“Their network is top notch as well”

Is that why the party chat has been garbage since launch? Is that why Microsoft has been molding Xbox Live to look more like PSN, for example Game Hubs, real names, play a game while it downloads, join a Twitch streamer’s multiplayer match midstream, remote purchases, community events, and more? Xbox Live has been buggy and playing catch up since 2013.

“Windows 10 making the UI so much quicker”

You mean that glitchy buggy mess that is still in preview? Windows 10 has nothing to do with improving the Xbox One UI. The Xbox One UI is being changed because of the slow layout it had before.

Everything Microsoft does is a reaction to sales. It is something Microsoft fanboys continue to deny.

They are honest and don’t charge you 60$ for a remaster or put a paying service like PS now for play lastgen titles.
