There will always be other ways. If MS is smart, they won't actually implement any of these stupid ideas that keep popping up. Like charging by the number of people in a room.

I just don't get it.
Well, that's not entirely true. I get that companies need to make profit to survive.
But we're still in the midst of a recession. Things are slightly improving I guess, but people are still having a hard time paying their bills, making ends meet.
The people who have been hit especially hard by this are the primary demographic that plays games...the 18 to 35 year old crowd.
With this in mind, I don't know why Microsoft thinks it's a good idea to engage in practices that make the hobby of playing video games less affordable.
Granted, games have never been that cheap, but some of this stuff almost seems like overkill.
I knew so many people who owned a Tony Hawk game, I rarely knew 2 people with the same Tony Hawk game. ( I was hooked on them tho, so I didn't mind that so much)

That's why they're positioning the Xbox One as the only device you need. So you won't have any other ways.

Hell...look at Activision's gameplan this gen. Which was to milk key franchises until people got sick of 'em.
Sadly, it worked.
"This gen"
How quickly we forgot Tony Hawk

They started adding too many gimmicks afterwards and the soundtracks just got crappier and crappier.
Heck, I think the soundtrack was probably the reason I liked 2 the most.
Guerilla Radio and Bring the Noise are indelibly etched into my brain's internal jukebox.

Not now he wouldn't.
I mean technically it was a sports franchise. Typically those get yearly installments.
They literally let go of properties that they cant exploit yearly now
I like two the most because I would smoke weed and play as spiderman on a skateboard.
How could I not have a great time?
Satans..... hints.....
As far as I know (I never played Underground 2 or Proving Grounds), none of the Tony Hawk games have had "Institutionalized"
THPS1 had "Cyco Vision" though
