Did they ever actually say 'We will never change DRM requirements or offline" ect? There is a bit of a difference between this and a 180 on those issues.

Also there is no issue with a Kinect bundle as long as they bring it to price parity with PS4, when they do it'll be better value than PS4.

But I wouldn't expect that until September 2014.

We can’t just flip a switch to turn off DRM. The console was built around it.

 

this quote stil stands though.... the console is built around it so much that it will need a day one patch.... so yeah it stands.... unless there is some hidden words somewhere....

I also agree that this quote stands.  When you look at it, MS didn't just remove the DRM, they had to remove everything.  They basically had to drop everything which isn't such a minor thing people might be believing.  It probably cost them millions.
