Still can’t believe people just rolled over on this. there is no excuse for 360/ps3/3ds/wiiU stores or online to shut down, it is simple greed from these companies and I’m not sure how people can even feel safe investing in these platforms now.

Bought the 360 when it first came out. Lady had an unopened one for sale on local Craigslist. She got it as a company gift. 200$ if I recall. Daughter played it and killed a lot of zombies and plants. She was unaware of the "join the group" stuff that violated the Microsoft account terms and conditions. I don't play myself nowadays. Caveman controller skills. Pong I could do and A Contra warrior I became a score or more after that. Physical Media is good to have if the Internet goes down and you already read the Foxfire books a few times. More of a steering wheel foot pedal gun and flight controller type of caveman here. Times have changed for how you steer and shoot stuff nowadays. Yougunns wouldn't know how to shoot a duck or catch a fish. Much less cooking it. Don't make me get into the muzzleloaders and column shifting. Stay safe and vigilant. Raise the chicken right.
