So you guys never play a movie, watch a TV show, log on to a social media network?
He didn't seem to take account of the current game slate either (likely by virtue of being an engineer), which most sites are acknowledging tips in Xbox ONE's favour.
Either way, very clever read. Its been two days since E3 and already we're starting to see the excitement hangover, the dust settling and people stopping to think, 'shit, MS showed some great exclusives' and 'now that I think about it, Sony's DRM policy is pretty close to Microsoft's, they both just leave it to publishers.' |
Can already do that with current gen consoles and i can watch tv without any consoles, crazy right! I know

yet having to switch canal and switch remotes is just so oldfashioned.... in those day and age I should be able to handle my entire in house entertainement hands free while cooking dinner.... XB360 and kinect 1 got closer and XB1 and kinect 2 is getting right there.... but hey if you want to keep a bunch of remots and batteries and all kind of extra unecessary and even outrageous steps in those day and age it is up to you my friend... now i'll be able to do a game session call friends or familly, get up go in the kitchen fix meself some fine dinner while watching TV, come back and borrow a "close friend" game all that seemlessly.... so far XB1 is the only truly next gen console (call it media box if you want, it's what I want anyway) PS4 is just a more powerful current gen console....

Yet you still won't play games and watch TV at the same time even with XB1. You can track scores , sure, but to actually watch the game, you will ultimately have to switch. Still ends up being the same thing. I guess you can use your voice now...great but for people with accents, it probably won't understand them anyway....now what?
How about those that don't even live in the U.S? Why do they pay more and don't even get half of the console's touted functionality? The strategy just isn't logistically sound no matter how you slice it. I guess all M$ cares about is the U.S. market.
