There's tons of good news. Price drop, Kinect requirement removed, bundled-in games, Games with Gold getting better, removal of Netflix/Hulu blocks via Live Gold, 3D BluRay support, Tier 2 launch window announced, Phil Spencer becoming head of Xbox division, EA Access, etc.

There's been plenty of great news. 

I wouldn't really say any of that was great news. Most of them are moves of desperation, or attempts to look like parity with their main competitor. EA access is probably going to be terrible and may have horrible affects on the game industry much like XBL and the introduction of DLC had horrible affects. Only real great news out of all of that was Phil Spencer taking over. Everything else merely highlights what their competition did first and still doing better. All of it with the exception of EA access is a damn good start but none of it is great news. Especially for early adopters that bought into the idea of kinect.

They were good for gamers.

New things which are good for gamers ---> good news.

No its not good for gamers, its good for Xbox gamers. Not to mention Phil Harrison being appointed means nothing, its not like he comes has some magic instance buff that makes Xbox all for the gamers now.

So its not good news for gamers, just xbox gamers.

How does Games with Gold affect my PS+ subscription?

Seriously, welcome to 2014 you guys.
