Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse. 

wow

is this a joke because i’m not laughing at all

I thought to myself when I saw this, “no. This has to be some one being silly. This has to be something some one fabricated to make microsoft look worse and people just aren’t checking the source.”
NOPE. IT’S REAL.
AND IT GOT WORSE:

WHAT.

remember when the basic fucking concept of a commodity was that buying something meant it was yours 

I want everyone to think long and hard on this information.
This means that you are not buying your games.  You are paying 60+ dollars to rent the games from Microsoft, and they can take their game back whenever they feel like it.
You will not own your game.  You will not own your console.  Essentially, Microsoft is saying “We can disable your games and cut you off from accessing your console whenever we choose to.”  Because a ban that locks your XBox Live account means that you will be locked out from all non-game functionality of the system, and by revoking your ‘licenses’ on all your games associated with your account, they can then disable each and every game you own for the system.  Leaving you with a five hundred dollar cable receiver.  Or, in the case of most users of the console, a five hundred dollar paperweight.
All because you accidentally walked into some online glitch and the rest of the players rage-report you for cheating.
This is unacceptable.  Buy any console but an XBox One.  Do not support Microsoft’s sudden belief that they own everything despite our purchase of it, and we have to prove we’re worthy of being shared with by paying exorbitant fees and jumping through constant hoops and hoping someone doesn’t report us for cheating because we made them mad in an online game.
Tell Microsoft ‘No,’ and do not give them your hard-earned money for what amounts to a video game subscription service with a $500 starting fee and $60+ dollar purchases.

There are way too many people that get banned unfairly. This is bullshit. I let my nephew play on my live account once when he was little, and I got a lot of people reporting me just because he was playing like a five year old. So. Cool.

A video game console should be something you can play anywhere you can get a screen to view it on and a power supply. Period. Internet requirements should only be necessary for online multiplayer games, never for ANYTHING else.

>ok… This is a pretty riveting subject for me. Let me look into it. …Ooh, this guys brings up a valid question. Support’s answer sounds pretty valid too, right?

> Their answer…?
>Wai—wh—…what.…So I have to… either make an alternate account… or use someone else’s… JUST to make an appeal?? Couldn’t we just, like, send appeals via e-mail to the moderators? Well… that’s a strange system to me, but I’ll just have to see how well it goes. So let’s go through this thing.
> Looks pretty organized, I guess. Now let’s read through some of these appeals as thoroughly as I can…> …> wh—…> WHAT.
>Ok so I went through 17 pages reading pretty much all of the appeals top to bottom. Seventeen pages. That’s 255 appeal posts.Some of the appeals were pretty strong cases, but NOT A SINGLE ONE was solved, whether through recovering/unbanning accounts or ms point refunds.@XboxSupport1 told @Tobias otherwise.
So that leaves me wondering ONE more thing…

> So what do they say….?
> …
Well that was quite the non-answer.
So there you have it. I was doubting what thatpointlessidiot was saying, but now after doing some serious research I can say for a fact that this is real. 
And let’s just leave it at that. I’m just going to play the Live games I have to date, hope to GOD I don’t get randomly banned, and wait a year for my gold account to roll over and die by the end of this year.
Not that I was planning on doing that from the start. There’s really no use sticking around with xbox if I’m gonna have to log in every single goddamn day just so I can play a game.
I have nothing else really to say on the matter, except that Xbox One is not going to be found in or anywhere near my household.
Oh and just one more thing.

….


……. THAT’S IT. I’M POSTING THIS POST ON FACEBOOK. EVERYONE I KNOW THAT OWNS AN XBOX DESERVES TO KNOW ABOUT THIS, AND UNFORTUNATELY THAT’S THE ONLY WAY I KNOW TO GET THE WORD OUT TO THEM.

I’ve had this list sitting around for a while (in case I ever want to try something new) and I thought I’d share it, because why the hell not, everybody loves free stuff. I’ve only used a couple, so for all I know these could be complete shit. BUT YOU NEVER…

He killed himself again in the end just to save Ron because he wanted to die, and Ron didn’t. Powerful.

Interesting story arc here.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

this is the GREATEST scene of ALL TIME

EVEN SILKIE. 

this show was so best

I think I liked it best when RAVEN joined in on the madness. The newer Titans show (While lacking in the more serious aspects) shared one thing in common with the original show, which is shown in this scene; Raven being a cutie. XD

This is proof positive that this show loved playing with that just as much as the newer one does (Such as with showing off her mischievous side and even showing her watching, AND ENJOYING, a parody of My Little Pony [YES IT’S RIDICULOUS, BUT IT’S CUTE AS FUCK SO SHUT UP XD]).

I’M SORRY BUT THIS REALLY PISSED ME OFF AND I NEEDED TO VENT.
So I liked this page last year for the shits and gigs, as you do. I found it funny, and let slide the few sexist posts.
Only recently- and after I got a tumblr- did I really start to notice the abundance of rape, sexist and racist jokes appearing on my news feed. And it pissed me off.
I said nothing, however, because what could I do? Send in a message to the page and get labelled a whore and a slut by the Admins as I’ve seen so many people do? 
Then this motherfucking gem popped up.
I usually don’t get involved in these sorts of things; if I do my comment gets lost more often than not and goes unnoticed. But I had to comment, I really had to.
I thought my argument was valid and whole, and I was actually rather happy when he admin directly replied to my comment. 
I narrowed down my five favourite games ever and posted them.
Of course, I got beaten and labeled down once again. 
When I asked for a rational clarification of his definitions of “casual” and “core” he did not reply. It was only when I directly insinuated the bias of his claim did I get a response. 
“A feminist I see.  No arguments need to be made. Good luck with getting them eggs fertilized”
Note the use of “feminist” as an insult.
I have had my fair share of gender specific hate regarding gaming. I get told I am a fake and a bitch if I get a high score; I get told to “suck a dick because you are better at that, bitch” if I get a low score; I get told to “get back in the kitchen, slut” without any prompt at all, simply because I have a vagina. 
I am beyond sick of this. I hate the fact that if a male who hypothetically plays a few hours of CoD can be easily called a gamer by the wider community but I if were to say that I was a level 34 on Skyrim I would immediately be called a fake geek girl, a casual gamer and a liar.
I hate the fact that, even though 45% of gaming consumers are female, developers and publishers still believe that there is not a large enough demographic for female protagonists.
I hate the fact that most women in video games are no more than sexulised objects in skimpy clothing.
I hate the fact that I cannot enjoy a game without being labeled and branded because of the fact that I posses a vagina and not a penis.
~sorry about the long post clogging up your dash. I needed to vent~

Off-topic somewhat, but important.

WHAT’S UP INTERNET

If you’re a gamer, you probably noticed all the new stuff being announces at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles. I’m super excited, especially about all the announcements from Sony and Nintendo.

Lots of people are excited for different consoles and their respective games, LIKE THE 3DS. So here’s your chance to win one! The winner will receive a red 3DS XL system (like new, used only a few times) with its original box, charger, manuals, and AR cards. Plus, the two latest killer apps for the 3DS, Fire Emblem: Awakening and Animal Crossing: New Leaf!

Rules:

  1. Sadly, the 3DS is region-locked, so I am only shipping to the United States.
  2. Reblogs count, Likes do not. Reblog as much as you like, but try not to spam 50 reblogs in a row.
  3. If you make a fake, empty, giveaway blog or something like that to spam reblogs then all your entries will be invalid.
  4. I will need the winner’s address for shipping purposes, so you have to be comfortable with sharing this information.

The giveaway will end on Friday, June 21st and the winner will be announced on that day! Good luck!

The latest rumors surrounding the Xbox One are that the demos that Microsoft allowed people to play on at E3 were not running on an Xbox One, but instead running on high-end PCs with Titan graphics cards.


If this is the case, they were running the games on a system that is around 3x faster than the Xbox One.

These rumors are backed up by images that clearly show a high-end desktop under the displays of the Xbox One stands at E3.

people have actually sat down on their chair, went to a gaming website, searched for the xbox one, clicked the pre-order button, paid $500, and are actually waiting for it

SPREAD THIS AROUND

Glad to see you're a big fan of VW :) So what's your favorite Odin Sphere character and pairing?

This may sound highly typical, but thus far I’m stuck between GwendolynXOswald or CorneliusXVelvet. As for favorite character? That’s easier to answer. It’s Gwendolyn, hands down. XD She’s just such a cutie, and a hell of a great character.

Heyo all.
If you haven’t heard about PRISM yet, you should get yourself informed.  Click here to do so.
In a nutshell, it allows the government to spy on any of your information.  Video, images, calls on skype to landlines or from computer to computer, searches on google, your profiles on social media sites… etc.  In addition to the requirement of Verizon to release all phone logs, this is a violation of privacy on an unprecedented scale.  It is a further expansion of the unnecessary Patriot Act signed into congress during the Bush administration.
Of course, there isn’t much of an outcry against this.  Our ubiquity of social media and sharing of personal information on, say, twitter, Facebook, Myspace, etc, has pretty much paved the way for this sort of act to be signed into place.  What’s one more group looking at your site, even if it is the government, right?   
Wrong.  Given time, information that you may publish could be used against you by law enforcement and government agencies.  Americans have been giving up civil rights regularly over the past fifty years, and it is getting to the point that we will have no rights left.
America will no longer will be “Home of the Free.”  It is becoming “Home of the Observed, Controlled, and Wiretapped.”

SIGNAL BOOSTING THE FUCK OUT OF THIS

JUSDT REBLOG THIS SHIT TO HELLLLLL

Dude this would screw authors and fanfic writers over majorly like all our google searches look really really bad most of the time.
