Now MS should drop kinct and things will be better


No need to drop kinect... the whole system was built with Kinect in mind and also having it bundled with every system allows developers to be able to use it in unique ways in games and in applications.  The new Kinect is much more powerful and more high tech than the original anyway.



 How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...

Xbox 360 wants to Kinect &  PS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

Kind of lame because now we have another generation where you have 2 consoles that are virtually identical. Xbone as it was originally to be would have been quite a different console than the PS4. A win for some consumers today and a loss for others.

Saw this on another forum, idk if it has been posted or not but I found it to be hilarious:

Apparantly the guy who made that picture didn't realise that Valve/Steam is working on a "Game borrowing" system.
See here: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=163006&page=1

Besides, you can also gift games too!

Plus, Steam resulted in lower price and more convenience, the DRM the Xbox One would have employed would have done neither.

up until earlier today we were also told that the whole system was built around this DRM and when angry joe suggested to Major Nelson that surely this was very easy to change their mind on Major Nelson snapped the mic from his hand and yelled at joe saying that He didn't know anything and unless he was on microsoft staff or working on the system he should shut up and not suggest it was easy to 180 on anything to do with the system or it's policys. Don't believe everything you see in a press release, apparently it turns out that if you reply to a middle finger with one right back then some change can happen.

That's pretty damn funny, nice post :D you can really taste the hatred in it, but no people didn't want them to just drop everything and copy what Sony are doing for the gamers, people wanted microsoft to do something good for gaming and new good ideas for the gamer. They failed in every way before they even launched the system.

I'm glad, I'm so so glad. That's a huge victory and boon for gaming and gamers, the DRM beast has been fought off for at least one more generation ^.^

+1 to you, Microsoft.

Wow, talk about internet win. Now I can actually consider getting the console when I have more room. If titanfall doesn't hit PS4 within a year of launch, I may get the X1
