Default Re: Xbox Live Day One Subscription Steelbook

This really bothers me

I don't want to support MS's Day One shenanigans

Plus I don't know if its a true video game steelbook as it has a download code in it and furthers their desire for digital games which will more than likely kill collectibles like steelbooks at some point

Honestly I think I have to pass on this steelbook

Maybe i'll just give up collecting xbox steels

I really can't stand this

Oh wow! 0.0

My first thread in the steelbook sub section of the forum and I destroy somebody's want to collect Xbox steelbooks! XD

I'll avoid posting anymore steelbook threads from now onwards!! XD

Anyway, I agree with you on the digital content thing. I already don't support DLC and when games go completely digital, companies will no longer get any money from me and I'll be thousands of pounds better off each year!

Obviously it's not your fault at all cosmic

Clearly I'm just a dinosaur who complains

Digital is the future at some point, game ownership be damned

Will seriously think about this one

It really does echoe everything I dislike about MS stance this time round

I know this is a few pages back, but bear with me...

I, like all of you, am obviously a collector. I get a lot of legitimate enjoyment out of building my collection, getting cool collectibles, etc. Your statement blows my mind, though. If you could no longer buy physical collectibles, you would give up gaming? I think that's losing site of the forest for the trees. Do you enjoy video games, or do you enjoy buying discs? lol

I think he means that he'd turn to the dark side of "not-paying" for his games, if you catch my drift xx
