Why I'm not Buying a One - My Rant

It might only take a couple of hours to get all the achievements but I'm also planning to reach level 50 with Porsche that should take over 30 hours.  You can actually get most of the achievements in the 1000 Club DLC as long as you download all the free cars plus I'm sure that the 2009 Ford Fiesta Zetec S will be a free unicorn car in the rewards program soon, that will knock out another achievement without buying anything.

Yea I have 3 or 4 of the 1000 Club DLC achievements, I can get 1 more if I buy every car in the game. However to get the Shelby, Lambo, Nissan, BMW, and 1,000,000 car ones, you need to get 2 DLC's (Forget which 2). Not a big deal, but still money wasted IMO, I'm not going to pay for achievements (I would buy the new Lotus Exige 260 Cup with the Evora engine though). Anyway Forza is great, when I one day do get a One console, I'll buy Forza 5, 6, 7, and maybe 8 if it's for One. Thank goodness MS turned around on that used game policy.

You know Halo 3 is still a $35 game on XBL? Yet MS claims their services match Steam which has Fallout NV with all DLC sell for $5 during a summer sale.....

Welp that sucks, my customer service experience has been pretty ideal with them, both in terms of getting discount on Live by scumbag lying that I found a better offer before and resolving the credit card storage issues and payments. I've only had two 360s, elite and my MW3 bundle one, both worked fine, never RROD'd nor any technical problems with them.

Am just not getting the One due to its inflated price tag here in UK, and that I haven't really played consoles in a while, I have severe trouble finishing games lately, even though I've used to push myself to finish every 360 game I've brought before, but this time around I have FC3, AC3, Halo 4, Dishonoured, GTA V, all brought on release and gathering dust ;_;. I may have outgrown console gaming :s, just play LOL with friends now, nothing else tbh, just need to finish GTA V!

Not everyone experiences RRoD, if they did the fail rate would be a lot higher then 50%...

I feel the same about next gen, like I said in my OP I have about 60 PS3/360/Wii games still to beat, plus GTAV, GT6, Beyond: 2 Souls, Drakengard 3, Metal Gear Rising, and other new games which I still have to buy.
