I don't buy it. And to even suggest they were caught by a journalist while in the act of viral marketing? No, that's not how MS operates.

And if it was true that MS is sending people to promote MS on forums and websites, how come 80% of posts are negative towards Xbone literally everywhere?

Surely those 20% that are positive must be real Xbox fans rather than paid corporate shills.


It's possible they don't think it's something to hide. The internet needs corrected on its bad perception of Xbox One etc

At this point, not even Xbox fans would defend this. There's nothing positive about this for the customers. Xbox fans will defend the value of buying one for its games or features, but not the policy itself.

Well if they think it's not something to hide, then that's another scandal by MS management, another example of how out of touch they're with the market.

About defenders at the grass root level, I disagree. I think we do see the usual suspects defend MS, like here on our site too. We've alerady seen practically all of the dozen or so of the most fierce Xbox lovers here defend the policies and controversial features of the Xbox One. So I think it's in the genome of a fan or fanboy to remain loyal and defend.
