Forums - Microsoft Discussion - And now I'm back in Xbox One corner!

What a roller coaster ride since the Xbox One was announce for me. Until today I was going to cancel my XBL gold and cancel all my pre-order games for the 360 and change them to PS3 version. I was completely giving up on the Xbox entirely because of all the anti-consumer policies in place. I was really close to give in and pre-order a PS4 this weekend so I won't be left out on next gen 3rd parties games completely.

Now with M$ backtracking most of their stupid policy and happy to say I'm still with the Xbox family. Going to pre-order my Xbox One tonight to show that I was not kidding when I say support the Xbox brand if they would listen to the fans. PRICE is not a issue for me, heck I spent almost $1,000 on that crappy PS3 launch so $700 to me is not that big of a deal.

Who else is returning the the Xbox brand after the fiasco? I mean REAL Xbox owners who still game on it.

I'M BACK BABY!!!

I'm laughing at people who already sold their 360 and cancelled their Gold memberships.

 

Edit: Alright, you guys have made good points.



Love and tolerate.

I will alpologize because emotion was running high. To be fair I was really closed to canceling my Gold account, thank GOD I didn't!



well we'll see how far it goes. i'm sure they have some plan.



So I'm curious, cause you wanted to skip both Xbone and PS4. And now they are pretty much the same in terms of DRM policies, used games, online etc. Will you buy the PS4 as well?



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

He's an actor, and I'm pretty sure it was a broken 360.

So, neutral.

basically they would have been crushed in pre-orders by the PS4. thats the only real reason they would change this. their plan is to make money. the DRM issues got in the way of that. so now they changed it. if they could pull anything like this off and it wouldnt effect their console sales you bet your ass they would do it in a heart beat
