    Is there anything I can do to make my console more useful than a damn brick when I have no internet?

    I tried to start a few games, they all said something along the lines of "you have no connection you dong dong, switch to offline mode to play!" then I switch to offline and just get an error code instead. I then check youtube (thanks isp for the unlimited
    data package) and everyone says "enable home xbox" I can't acces the feature without a connection!

    A system update that gives us acces to the games we BOUGHT is sorely needed. I'd say something I bought is mine, you are keeping MY property hostage.

    Give it back or give me my money.

    :)

    Offline gaming?

    @ Icestorm3

    I do yes, I have a steam account and all that Jazz. But I can play and access my games offline, Buy them in store then connect them to steam all without the need to go online. And I really want to pick up Rome Total War 2. Plus PC is largely backwards compatible
    (can play a lot of pretty old games)

    Every platform has it's strengths and weaknesses I just see more weaknesses in the One than positives.

    Then I am going to invest in a new PC gaming rig.

    One Original Xbox, 3 Xbox 360's (RROD) and one Xbox360 Slim. Roughly 150 + games purchased across those consoles including GOD and arcade games and an Xbox live subscription for the best part of five years.

    Well I guess I made a poor long term investment and it's time to cut my loses. When the Xbox came out and I played Halo:CE for the first time I thought I would be buying Xbox's for generations. Oh well.

    Thanks for wasting my time MS.

    Hello all,





    As this is an old thread, I will be locking this one. Updates, games and everything changes often so would be best to create a new thread. Once a new thread is created we will be happy to assist you in any issues or questions you might have.





    Thanks,

    Brad

    So, why not set your home xbox? You only need to be connected for a minute.
