"i honestly believe microsoft thought they were bringing their consumers what they wanted."

That makes sense. This feature seemed like it would cause more damage to publishers than just letting the current used game model stand. Most used games don't go through 10 different people, but make it where you can digitally let people use it, and pretty soon you'll have clubs that spring up where people only buy…

Never thought of them as evil, but they did sort of come across like politicians or extremely wealthy people who live in a bubble, and forget how the rest of the world works. You know, like the guy who thinks $80,000 a year is at the poverty line.

That's exactly what I thought it would be. As soon as I read that you could just play your family group's games I knew it was too good to be true.

Has anybody else read that Microsoft employee pastebin message after yesterday's news? Basically it said the family plan, which was really the ONE thing people were mourning in general, as being nothing more than a glorified demo.

I bet the guys at Gamestop are having a huge party right about now.

Microsoft fixes the major problem with the Xbox One, and based on the discussions of various Kotaku articles, people still hate it. Accept it guys, they did something nice for us.

Great. Now all we need is

I think I like this name better than XBone!

Fuck you're awful. Any excuse to bitch them out eh?

and because it's tasty

don't worry, it will still be here because ...

It takes more guts to hold your hands up and admit you're wrong than to hold firm to your awful policies. Just look to George Osborne (UK Chancellor of the Exchequer) and how he refuses to change his policies despite the fact child poverty in the UK is now increasing and more families who used to be relatively well…

Remember when people defended their practices? Funny shit.

Because nothing feels better then being a servicemen being told to fuck off.

So I assume they're also renaming the console the Xbox 180.

If this is true, I guess I'll be dropping a total of $900 this holiday season...
