First of all : I have no respect for people who support the Xbox One anymore for all the reasons we know.

But like many people I thought "Okay, most gamers hate the Xbox One/Microsoft but will the casual audience buy it". Because we're not talking about disliking the Xbox One for whatever reasons, for exemple the Xbox 360 as always been considered as a great console and competitor to the PS3. It's a matter of...of well there's no need to explain anymore.

THEN, I went on different social networks (various audiences, from casual, to hipsters, to teens...) and realized :  even the casual audience seems to be reacting really bad to the Xbox One.

On Facebook








Twitter


You can also see the same thing on Google+, many consumers or tech blogs, forums...

So my questions are : is Microsoft counting on the ultra couch potatoes, the ones who don't use social network, don't read media or inform themselves ?

is Microsoft so confident in the support of big publishers (although they have few exclusives from them), the government or other lobbies/agencies ?
