Point taken. No one was more eager to buy an Xbox One than I was. To illustrate my side of the argument here is my 360 collection for last gen : (the picture with the metal wire shelf are my completed games) (you can already see my gamerscore in my sig)

 

The DRM ordeal was a dealbreaker even for a customer as loyal as I have been, and I preordered a PS4 as a result (you can all check my old posts if you like where I talk about it if you need proof that I am not a fanboy). The reversal brought me back. I understand that not all of the people on here have a natural hatred of the Xbox One, but some of the posters on here are acting as though the Xbox One is still this abomination of a game system when really the only differences between it and the PS4 is the $100 extra on the price tag, a few exclusives, and a camera and not much else ... at least not much of actual substance. I have no doubt you were planning to buy an Xbox One, and so were several other people on here. My disdain is directed only at those who never intended to buy the system in the first place ... which seems to be a fair number of people on here. It is no secret that a majority of posters on here prefer Sony. That is fine, but don't rip a system over something as trivial as a game DVR feature no one will use.

For those like you that clearly intended to buy an Xbox One, but, for one reason or another, decided it is not for you that is no problem for me. You made a choice and I respect that completely. I don't, however, respect trolling which is clearly what some people are doing here.

Killing myself trying to read your end labels :D some are recognizable because of the same font etc. as the EU versions but damn that's a nice collection of 360 stuff. I do completely know what you mean tho, I had it the last 2 generations with the same mate who claimed first he had loved the N64 but then the gamecube was too kiddy and so he hated Nintendo and the GC, then last gen He claimed he had loved some of the stuff on the GC and was a real Nintendo fan but the wii was too kiddy and he hated Nintendo for it....

The thing is tho, after the E3 stuff my plan to get an X1 basically ran itself onto a beach like a massive floppy whale with a kinect attached to it, and like... yeah... it's still alive there, flopping about, it could be pulled back in the water. but whenever I hear stories of new features being taken away from it by Ms or when more and more basic stuff goes behind that Gold paywall (I'll be honest I have Gold for the last 4/5 years but outside of SSF4 barely play online) I would love to think I could have the system and not pay extra for what is offered, I'd love to think of getting the system and them not changing the EULA at some point down the line when more have it. But at the moment, it's just flopping its way further and further up the beach.
