    Post What if I told u....

    That MS will be able to to tell what games u own when the XBOX goes online. Does that bother you or who really cares? They will be able to tell how many hours you play and so on. Personally, I don't care.

    This is a hypothetical situation and there is no truth to it but It can be possible.

    Thoughts?

    Nope doesnt bother me one bit, its not like they can do anything. Of course this is possible but i dont think that XBOX Gamers would have a porblem with this. I for one could care less, just as long i i get to go online and did somebodys' grave

    BTW, that was an interesting question man. Never really thought of that possibility untill now

    Untill next time, the GRAVEDIGGER has spoken

    Bah, who cares? If that's the kind of info they are going to collect, then let them. It will just help them develop more games.

    Think of it this way. If they see 90% of the people playing FPS games, as compared to 3% playing sports games, they will probably decide to produce more FPS games. So this is good. It will help Microsoft's marketing.

    I don't care, they can look how long I play all they want if it is true. They could never count the hours I play anyway because I will be on so many hours when Project Ego and all of those hot games come out.

    Doesn't bother me either. They probably also know what sites you've been on over the past few years, how often you visit them, the emails tha you have sent, the email addresses, and the size of your *****....

    In fact, it wouldn't bother me one bit if they monitored XBOX use and looked for pirate copies of games.

    This would actually help x-box gamers because then ms could see what types of games are favorites among gamers and would strive to get more games similar to it

    We all know that MS knows everything about us anyway right? I mean they probably have camera everywhere. JUST KIDDING! I love the box that Bill built!

    I don't care but, I bet when they make another concole, they will have this chip into the controller and it can tell what your thinking, and it sends it to microsoft headquarters.

    No, it doesn't bother me because I'm not paranoid. I also don't think the government is after me either.

    It doesn't bother me any. It isn't like they could know much about us because that information isn't very personal. It would just be another way to see how well the game did. Whatever they do it doesn't bother me as long as I get to play online.

    I'm more worried about recent developments in the airline industry as far as my privacy is concerned. But if Microsoft is planning on going big brother, they definately need to get my consent to collect data from my system use.

    I feel If you are going to hook up to their network they could monitor your activities, but otherwise it is really none of there business what I am doing with my xbox. I paid for it....I own it, if they want info from me, and my gaming intentions.....they can pay for it!
