The Microsoft PR machine will be experiencing whiplash from turning this around so fast, a win for the consumer and ultimately the gamer.

Contrary to popular belief..it was MS who approached third party pubs..not the other way around.

I am gland they are changing their DRM policy, it is still not perfect (in my opinion) but it is much better than it was before.

This is great news. I said earlier along with many others that that if we were vocal with our complaints that they would change their policy. It worked, I can't believe how fast it was though.

I'm actually REALLY curious too.

They removed the online pass in upcoming games specifically because of XB One's policies, are they going to bring that back in?

So, just like that everything is forgiven? what a joke people are, no wonder why these companies think masses are idiot.

Microsoft apologied for basically the whole situation. Why shouldn't we forgive them? They might try it again, but as long as the investors and fans speak up, it won't happen.

It's just that simple.
