aren't you glad you're gonna be able to enjoy forza 5 now?

[Kalahari Inkantation]

i wanted to, but i'm not falling for their obvious scheme

[Kalahari Inkantation]

it's actually pretty funny that just a few days ago, this was their attitude:

lol

it's too bad microsoft is going to end up being rewarded for this, which was probably their plan all along

[Kalahari Inkantation]

It also looks at the PS4 as “Xbox 360 version 2″ due to the lack of social and multi-tasking features. The company doesn’t even see Sony as a threat.

And now, the Xbone is nothing more than 360 v. 2 either.

[Hiro]

but the ps4 has tons of social features, idk about multitasking though

oh doug

To clarify, the affected territories are: Bahrain, Lebanon, Romania, Oman, Slovakia, Malta, Cyprus and Iceland

At least PS4 has a countable number of blocked countries.

Xbox One, however, has probably like 180 of them

At least they're taking one step in the right direction from 360 now:

Xbox One games will be playable on any Xbox One console -- there will be no regional restrictions.

Now Nintendo is the only major console manufacturer that still uses region lock.
