Two things that jump right away for me:

First, I love the whole "anti-customer policies." Funny how people have a double standard. Those same "anti-customer policies" apply to all software in PCs/Macs/tablet etc. My guess is that people don't mind as much on these because you can always illegally download whatever you want (not on tablets tho but they're not there yet). And how come no one has talked about how the PS4 initial install showing DRM policies too? Hm, go figure fan base.

Second, Kinect has been worth it. Those of us that own a Xbox One have learned that it is actually amazing. Not perfect, but it has changed quite a bit how we interact with our entertainment systems. Sadly, the people that have not used Kinect are also the loudest about not wanting it. Go figure!

Anyway, rant off. Now, let's hear what the other 90% of users on this site say about this article (which mind you, are probably PS fans only). This will be a constructive and unbiased discussion.

The bolded part says more about your post than anything you said in your post.

  1. DRM is not what got ppl up in arms against MS, its the specific type of DRM. If MS had its way, both physical and digital games would be locked behind DRM. You couldn't just take your physically bought game and give it to your friend to play. Or g and buy used games. That was the problem.
  2. Why should anyone talk about something sony may have considered but never implemented or even announced? Like are you making any sense? Thats like saying the person that said "I'll fuck you up" is just as guilty/bad as the person that picks up a gun and shoots off both your knee caps.
  3. No one is saying kinect is bad, or that it isn't worth it for those that wanna use it, but that is the point. Kinect does not and has not added any gaming use to the xbox. So it was a mistake by MS forcing it on every single potential xbox owner. And maybe you are right that those that haven't used the kinect are the loudest, it just so happens to be that they are also they ones going t buy the PS4. And while you may not care about that, obviously MS does. 
  4. You are setting yourself up t be branded as much of a fanboy as the people you seem to be talking about. Besides, people not agreeing with you doesn't make them fanboys. It could be you knw, they just have their own opinion. Anyways, I am of th emind that if you ever have to premeptively call out fanboys in any coment you are making, then you are probably saying something that only a fanboy would say to begin with.
