You don't think your original comment was misleading? And your subsequent comments on Page 1 continued in this fashion.
I read it thinking you were referring to the original Xbox One in China, since you omitted the term "import".
Had to browse through multiple posts before I even found out about the most important aspect of your original post.

At the same time, you seem to be derailing from one of the main issues, which is that Microsoft chose to region lock the console, and apply no-second-hand-sales-DRM, when many people in the past claimed that "it wasn't Microsoft's choice, but the Chinese government's."

This is a very interesting development. Especially after Microsoft said "We listen to the fans".
Here we see that they're still trying to get away with these things they 'now know' that fans don't want, whenever they can.


@Bolded final statement

 

This alone shows me just how little they can be trusted from a consumer standpoint. 

A Microsoft lead gaming industry is a downright scary thought. I am shocked at how easily some forgive them, believe their BS about caring about gamers, then only to watch them try their anti-consumer tactics again, not even a year later.

The moment they see an opportunity to try and bring these anti-consumer practices back, don't hesitate for a moment thinking that they won't do it.



I wouldn't be surprised if they tried it again with the next gen.

That wont be an issue, since next gen will be digital only. This gen is basicly digital only, since discs aar only used for first time installs. Blurays cant keep up wth demand of data the hardware can handle.



What makes you think that the next gen will be digital only? The majority of gamers do not want that shit so it will not happen. MS is welcome to try that crap.
