Yeah.... No. The direction X1 is taking is different from their original goal. MS wanted to kill off the second hand "used" market which was a major part of their strategy (ChaCHING$$$) with the DRM Policies and while the original netcode may be written into the OS, it will never get used; How could it? They simply don't have that kind of leverage.
And to say the optional removal of Kinect (which originally was to always be plugged in) isn't a major flip flop is absurd. This was designed to be as important to the X1 as the Gamepad is to the WiiU.
Like seriously.... How can you not think many of the decisions coming from the MS side have been made out of sheer panic? This was their shot to dominate and they screwed up, BAD.
