Voice search marketplace, skype with ppl, headset free voice commands in gaming.

I mean cmon, some gamers mindsets...... Like a bunch of seniors that refuse to embrace modern conveniences.

I can tell you that I work for a certain big company right now, and I had a meeting with a guy in our marketing department.  He told me how we are working with the Xbox: One to put targeted ads everywhere.  This really isn't a joke!

 

The funny thing is he looked excited and I was just thinking "Great...."

LOL Yeah, MS isn't letting this go especially in America, but marketing wont save a $500 price point with casuals. Good luck with the marketing though.

What I wanted to say was "Well that's good for us, bad for the Xbox: One."  We will benifit from the ads, but I just can't see users recommending to their friends that they also buy the more expensive console with more expensive online when you still HAVE TO PUT UP WITH ADS!

MS is beeing so short sighted here...
