Xbox 360 successor codename: "Ten/Loop"

[prowler]

On Xbox Live, I'm paying for the quality and security of the system. My money pays for employees to manage issues and prevent attacks and ban hackers.
(In reality, I'm not paying at all though. My Gold ran out in May and is still going strong.)

Sounds good, but does it really do that? How is the hacking on there?

In my time of playing Black Ops, Halo: Reach, and Battlefield 3, I've hardly ever run into hackers, and Xbox Live downtimes have been very minimal, nor have my or my friends accounts been hacked.

Could the same be said of PS3? Haha, no.

You look pretty confident that Xbox LIVE is untouchable.

Here's a recent one and it's one word too: FIFA.

You'll have to be more specific. I don't quite get you.

And believe me, I know there are exploits, I'm pointing more to the fact that their exploits (the other definition) do not affect the general populace as much.

You are clearly biased. The online system for Wii and 3DS is great but not as integrated as xbox360.
Call of Duty for wii works great online and so do many other games.
3DS clearly has more potential.

The Wii online system is terrible. I mean the original Xbox had better online.

Call of Duty on the Wii works half as well as it does on any other console. Less players, no voice chat, less maps, smaller user base. It works, but it's certainly not as good as the other versions.

If the Wii online system is "great", then the Xbox 360 online system is Jesus Christ reincarnated.

EDIT: Oh yeah, let's not even start on cheating. People say it ruined Mario Kart, The Conduit, a whole list of things. I'm sure you can cheat on Xbox Live but out of all the time I've used it, I've never met a single cheater.

Yeah, the rampant cheating pretty much destroyed any hope of me playing online with my Wii. While there are some cases of cheating on Xbox Live, Microsoft is able to ban people. With the Wii, there is no way to ban players unless companies make their own online system.

I don't think any part of my post said PSN has no hacking.

Every online system has it's hacks and shit.

Whoever thinks it is called Ten is certainly out of the Loop.

I think Microsoft really needs to work on their codenames; they just aren't exciting enough. How about Operation Bananarama?

 

[godreborn]

this xbox iteration actually produces a holographic rrod.

 

[Deleted-220713]

It transmits the rrod to your WP7 and Windows PC.

And yeah, probably never gonna buy this.
Not unless Live is free.

Just when I was thinking of buying Kinect.

However the features alone of this "Loop" makes me wanna stop thinking about Kinect and saving the bucks for this console. (If it's true.)

This should get interesting....

Live is free, though. Gold, on the other hand (And that's just going by the console service)...

Forgoing live just because it costs money for the premium service isn't really an all that great idea. It is the best online service because it costs money; a lot of it goes to building and maintaining the infrastructure that makes playing your favorite games online possible. Even Sony, with what was supposed to be an entirely free online service, has started to charge for "Premium Membership" for exactly this reason.
