Legendariske spelmakaren Peter Molyneux försvarar i en Tech Radar-intervju Microsoft och deras tidigare planer på att göra Xbox One till en konsol som behövde konstant uppkoppling. Han kallar kritiken orättvis och säger att utvecklingen är både logisk och oundviklig.
"I know Microsoft, I know they were only doing things because they thought they were long-reaching and long-thinking. But the world we live in now is that we have to realise, especially if you're a big corporation, if you make one step wrong, the world will leap on you, and unfairly, very unfairly, they will judge you", säger Molyneux.
Molyneux fortsätter med att tillägga: "Whether as consumers we like it or not, just like every form of technology interaction, there's an inevitability of online. We know that online is so much a part of our existence now that we're going to be in a world very soon where we have to be online all the time."
Han avslutar: "A mobile device is more and more non functional without a connection to the internet, and why should that be any different for consoles?"
