Xbox One is awesome! Best console ever!



Around the Network

Another very good marketing move from Microsoft.



It's disturbing how little I am surprised by this.

The best quote I've seen this year:

Angelus said: I'm a moron

It rides the line being good advertising and pathetic. I'm not sure what to say about it.

what did you think coming from them



I can't believe how many people think that bribery is ok. The contract specifically says that any participant cannot disclose that they're part of this promotion. This is against the law and yet another example of why people do not like MS:

"That's not the case, however. According to a leaked copy of the full legal agreement behind the promotion, video creators "may not say anything negative or disparaging about Machinima, Xbox One, or any of its Games" and must keep the details of the promotional agreement confidential in order to qualify for payment. In other words, to get the money, video makers have to speak positively (or at least neutrally) about the Xbox One, and they can't say they're being paid to do so."





 

The PS5 Exists. 


Oh Micro$oft...
