Fancy cheering yourself up ahead of the weekend? We suggest you take five minutes out of your day to watch Francis’ latest YouTube video about rumors surrounding the Next Xbox over its use of always online technology.

Francis flips out for a few minutes about how stupid the idea is, bringing up comments made by Microsoft’s creative director last night, before taking an axe to his Xbox 360 in protest.

He’s pretty much venting the frustrations that everyone feels about these rumors. It would simply be a ridiculous move on Microsoft’s part, right?
