It is the future....in a sense of Apple (which then you would be correct)....problem is this is the gaming industry and not Apple where casuals want the all in one solution. Enthusiasts have mostly moved onto Androids that are less restrictive, which is also another proper analogy. I also wrote something after this last post. Theres no doubt that this is my opinion, but I am also analyzing what MS is saying.

I disagree with you. You see the gaming industry as a big block who cannot change...
Microsoft sees it differently and like any changes it is not welcomed at first but I think it is the right path.
It is a bet Microsoft is taking and while these self-proclamed "only-true-real-hardcore" gamers do not like it; many others do and if you add to that the casual market and even those who are not interrested into games; the Xbox One strategy may pay off.
I also disagree with your Android exemple; the majority of people buying android devices are buying them because they are just cheaper.
I think it is really a minority who want an "open/less-restrictive" system and the other majority does not really care or even know about this.

They have to like the games offered before the all-in-one process can commence. Kinect better deliver because a lot of gamers might be jumping ship based on price point. The PS2 proved that third party titles are the gold of the industry and having them makes you attractive. If your competition has 90% the same games outside of exclusives then the majority of the work is already done and the Xbox 360 did this to segment the former PS2 crowd. Third parties are the gold, not Xbox Live nor are the exclusives on the PS3. The only company with that type of power is Nintendo. Enjoy disagreeing.

Do not be arrogant if you want to debate on forums, I'm enjoying debating, not disagreeing.
You replying with arrogant comments like that just make me want to do the same, too bad, it was good discussion so far.
So now, exclusives are not that important? Kay ;)
I guess it is the same than having to pay now for online multiplayer pn PS4, not a big deal? Expected?
