I also can see Google get into gaming before Apple.  Google fiber is more groundbreaking than anything Apple has come up with in their entire existance.

There should be an option for "I wasn't gonna get one anyway".


Read the OP this thread isn't for people that never where interested in a X1 from the start.

I read it, I just think it might be a clearer option than "show results" as otherwise the poll could be skewed. Plus it would be interesting to know how many people were not planning to buy one anyway.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

not surprising responses by the VGC users. Anyway, I did not care about the DRM stuff before and I don't care now. They had by far the best games to show, so yeah, I am still getting a Xbox One - and three of my colleagues as well after I showed them Ryse.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

With such bad PR they would have to.

Sony changed their policy....they had the luxury of not saying their origional plans and therefore changed them in time.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

About a Xbox but only because it was the first next gen console to come out. Also regretted it later since there weren't to many interesting games that i couldn't play on the PC. I rebought one later on witch died two weeks ago. So no Xbox One for me, even if it didn't have the DRM, or even if it was slightly cheaper.



To be honest I think MS are being clever. Hardcore gamers will pay anything for the console at launch and the Xbox has a lot of them. There's nothing wrong with them just reducing the prices a few months after launch. But taking advantage of launch sales is a good move IMO.

Sony didn't change anything, "up to the publishers" just like on PS3.

no doubt the games looked good. but do you honestly believe the policies will change?
