Why are people congratulating Microsofting for "admitting their mistake?" Why are you guys saying that it was noble of them to do that?

They don't give one crap about their mistake, they care about your money- they changed their policies so they can take more of your money, it has NOTHING to do with being noble.

even tho i do commend them for backtracking ill aslo agree with this... If there were no PS4 Ms would not be backtracking/ our pockets are their only interest/ at least they moved alot faster than sony releasing a 600 dollar console tho.. even tho Sony couldnt really cut the price quick because they were already losing 200 plus dollars on the 600 model

Positive to say at least: MS is *not* anti-consumer, they listened to the crowd. I had no problem with their stuff but would also be ok with the same as 360 does.

more likely they listened to the pre-order numbers. no sales = no money.

Or you spin it this way, yes. It's still the consumer who makes the difference.

very true. it's just a-fucking-mazing how fast the changes came. regardless of the spin -- it takes a lot of balls to admit when your wrong and change. soo much props to MS for doing this!!!

Agree completely! Did I also here right that games will be region free also? Awesome my US and JAP Xbox 360s take up a ton of room in my entertainment center and ! won't have to worry bout that this time!.

Xbox can never win all I see now is "If they can take it out they can put it back in!!!" and "too little too late". I have a feeling most of these people were never interested to begin with.

Ill agree with that/ alot of people were never interested in buying it in the 1st place

And the people saying "now I'll buy one!" were likely to be buying one anyway, too.

lol what a truly nasty company.

Making a total 180.

Think of all those poor fans who stood up and defended the Xbone with all its restrictions. Now they're laughing stock.
