However there is a degree of expectation of professionalism... And you failed. "Sock full of jizz" and just being downright toxic consistently about a brand? Common mate. You are a creative individual, you can do better and be better.

Personally I call it fire-brand sensationalism for entertainment.  Much in the same way Jeremy Clarkson would use over the top language in car reviews on purpose to provoke disccussion.

Yes, some will be offended but squeaky wheel gets the grease and all that.

If you don't dislike Xbox, then you are either lying to me right now... Or lying to the entire community that you are trying to sell yourself to with sensationalist rhetoric.

Why would anyone dislike a box with electronic components in?  That's madness!

Why would I hate Xbox games?  Forza is fantasic.  The PGR series was my jam back in the day.  I used to have a great time on Halo 2/3, and there are many other great games on various Xbox platforms.

But (and here's the point), Xbox games & consoles are NOT Microsoft management and policy making.  Just because Forza is great, doesn't mean Microsoft milking 18 month tempory staff contracts is okay.

Just because I enjoyed Jet Set Radio Future doesn't mean I think Microsoft make good decsions about the future of the gaming arm.

The two are different things altogether.

Sony want to make money by selling art, Nintendo want to make money by selling fun, Microsoft want to make money.
