I will be playing the long game. I'll wait till next months show, coast out the rest of this generation, and see what kind of a direction Xbox is heading in. Too many games and several more years to go before I decide to bust up my toys (I wouldn't anyways).
I'm sure there is plenty of goings on behind the scenes, nothing that any of us will ever be privy to, but I'm certain it isn't any kind of a deliberate sabotage of Xbox. For now, I'm going to trust they know exactly what their doing, even though I'm not able to comprehend it.
