Does MS really deserve praise for "listening" to consumers ??

not a single company deserves praise, they just need to work hard to make their product "good" in the eyes of the consumer, they still need to do that.

now since sony is on topic, people just start looking at Ps3 as a nice product when sony released the slim one (my opinion), before that PS3 was still a joke.

now same applies to MS, they just need to do the "right" politics, and when the time comes their product will be desirable again.. now is not with things like this http://gamersyndrome.com/2014/news/xbox-news/chinese-xbox-one-games-contain-one-time-activation-code-cannot-be-resold/ that will make me change my opinion about them.

They do try to make the Xbox One a "good" console by getting exclusive DLC ,content, etc (and exclusive games). If it worked for the 360, who's to say it won't do any good for the XB1? Yes the DRM put a damper on their rep, but at least they reversed it because it shows that they DO listen to customers despite what some people believe. 

As for China, the XB1 has DRM there to curb piracy. They aren't trying to go back to the original plan, and they are better off putting DRM on the console than facing the same issues that Sony faced with the PS2 (read: piracy). It's a China thing, not a MS thing, and Nintendo took a similar measure with their iQue Player. 

if they wanted to makeit a good console they would actually make games instead of just wasting money on DLC and time exclusive nonsense, but thats just me. Now on to the topic at hand. No it doesnt show they listen to customers, because if they did they would have NEVER even tried in the first place.
