after what Don Mattrick said in an interview with Geoff Keighley, maybe they deserved this

stolen from Neogaf:

Geoff Keighley had an interview with Don Mattrick (recorded pre conference) - here are some excerpts:


Keighley:"Did you know or did you anticipate the way the people would push back?"
Mattrick:"Absolutely - it's a super passionate community of people... till you use it [Xbox One] it's really hard to understand what all the advantages are."
________________________________________________________

Mattrick: "Xbox has been created by gamers for gamers."

Mattrick: "Fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity, it's called xbox 360"

Mattrick: "The avarage internet connection is working the majority of the day - people are imagining that it isn't... It's change. There was a point in time when people would say all i want my phone to do is make a phonecall."

 

@ bolded: DAMN!! WTF!!!

LOL, looks like M$ is taking a page out of Sony's playbook circa 2006.  That was pretty much their stance on the criticism that PS3 was too expensive for the average consumer... "Fortunately we have a product for people who cannot afford a PS3 or refuse to work a second job for it... it's called the PS2."
