Keep thinking I'm just some fanboy who wants whatever I say to come true. I predicted an always online console with streaming to offset lower end hardware and a steam like strategy nearly a full year before the consoles were announced. I also predicted that the 10 person sharing thing was bogus (because it was too good). I also said MS would NEVER have controlling DRM when the rumours were circulating because I said "it would absolutely destroy them". I'm not just talking nonsense. Binary solo gets it. It's over generalized, and not specialized in anything enough to draw any real interest from groups that are looking for those specific things...especially when those specific things are already represented in the marketplace.

I said, and will say again, wii won last gen with just one specific function. The other two just about lost money on their consoles. All you need is specialization in one aspect, and xb1 doesn't do it at all. Making everyone happy makes nobody happy.

Glad to know some of the things you predicted on internet forums actually happened; not sure why you assume that not having the same opinion make me believe that you are talking "non-sense", but again, understanding someone is different than agreeing and you seem to have a difficulty to get that

Thank you for sharing anyway; we will see in few years if Microsoft made the right choice or not!

lol look because everytime I say something, you put a little dig in there. Like just previously, you said "blindly believe that nothing can change, or the best way is to just create a 360+". And previous to that, you said, "these are not facts, they are hopes", and also spun my logic into something completely different, saying "pcs already do what consoles do, so according to your logic...".

I'm trying to impart to you that I actually do research. I've seen the trends. I have a good idea about what will work. Currently, the xb1 is falling short. These are not hopes, they are outlooks. It's not so hard to see what massive competition it is up against, and how awkward this situation looks for MS. I'm not trying to prove anything to you, but to get you to look at it from a different angle. Currently, your stance is "I don't know". You're clearly not oozing with confidence. So take a minute and look again. The results shouldn't surprise you.
