And excuses, apparently.

Finally, a video that belongs on Deadspin.

As an official representative from the Brotherhood of Insufferable Pedants, I would like to invite you to our Tuesday meeting. 

My favorite joke that was made was that the only two white guys in the movie are Martin Freeman, who played Bilbo Baggins, and Andy Serkis who played Gollum, making them the Tolkien white guys.

Yeah, the first episode, and a few that followed, were really intense looks at how hopeless the justice system can be once you’re caught inside it. But the show got progressively ‘fluffier’ all the way up until the finale.

Yeah, Manning really was just a ball manager, waiting for the unstoppable defense to get back on the field. They could do no wrong...except for Talib. After his 15 yards for taunting, and that brutal facemask on the goal line...I thought he was getting paid off to throw the game.

So... Were all these fumbled design choices the fault of Don Mattrick? Because once he left the company and Phil Spencer took over, seems like he's cleaning up a lot of the messes.

The reason this case has gone this far is because he is specifically being targeted/profiled as a gamer. The hysteria cultivated by the media against gamers is directly to blame for this. Sure, the things he said are distasteful, and he should be ordered to seek counseling about it. But because he is a gamer, and…

He's a guy that made a bad statement, on a public forum - which he effectively retracted immediately with the "lol jk". This whole thing is absolutely insane to me. The bail, the jail time, even going to criminal court. They should have raided his house, found he had no threatening items (firearms, explosives, etc),…

It's amazing how many short-sighted people completely disregard the XBone because all they really want is more of the same. I can appreciate what MS is trying to do, by driving the market to digital distribution and cloud computing.

They don't JUST want a media center, and they don't JUST want a game console. They want something that can do both, and still offers features nothing else can. Voice control and full integration with cable/netflix/HBO/ESPN/etc - that's what is alluring about it.
