Not so much your opinions on a crash (although I guess I wouldn't really like to see that happen), I just don't agree with your feelings on DLC and patches. In my experience those are mostly positive things; I like that the game companies have a way to fix bugs (which have always been in console games, they just had no way to fix them before). Of course these can be abused by companies, but companies have always been able to do crappy things to the consumers.
Patches have always been available for computer games as well, and a lot of them are still available on the web even if their companies went out of business -- some aren't, but I guess I don't mind having something that benefits current gamers but has the chance of inconveniencing people who play old consoles 10-15 years down the line.
