If you want to speculate, fine; go with it but stop acting like your speculations are better rooted than Major Nelson or other communication from Microsoft...
I cannot believe you are still arguing with me about your speculations/rumors vs what MS said...

A hint for you... all the rumors proved to be true until now... Major Nelson already contradicts itself several times about Xbone... not only he but almost every MS PR about Xbone.

Like I said... fine... belive in what you want to believe... MS never confirmed nothing officially and that is the sad truth.

"vocal minority"

LOL

Understatement of the year.

Plus that pastebin article proves there clearly wasn't full info on the whole sharing thing which is the only lost feature the real minority is bitching about.

Stop being arrogant in your replies; I'm getting tired of it...

Now, you are obviously just biased toward Sony and everything Microsoft is saying is basicaly BS... Also your "speculation" about Trial/Demo is totaly coming out of nowhere...There is a huge difference between rumors based on dev. kits or internal sources and people making things up on the internet.
You tend to believe anything (even without any "official" source) if it is anti-MS in the smallest... But when there is somthing good; these are just PR bullshit...

I'm not blind and I know that Microsoft/Sony PR are saying a lot of stupid things; but when someone from Microsoft (more than one person actually) clearly explain something and the only thing you have to put against is a completly made up speculation; I'm sorry but; it does not make you very credible...

Even if you think Microsoft's initial policy's were a step towards the future it was simply to early. First digital distribution has to become the major way of buying games, but this shouldn't be forced. Then internet has to make a few steps forward, to a point that the minimum connection are on par or faster than today's top connections, and it should be available in every place on the globe and be extremely reliable. Only then could Microsoft's vision work.

Nobody is being arrogant in the replies here... neither me or Ben... you are assuming that because you don't want to believe us (and you have the right to not believe... it is your opinion after all)... please, don't panic.

I am reallymdisappointed we are stuck with last gen but better graphics.

Again I have to have a console with high priced disc based games and a lack of innovation.

I trult wanted what was planned. Not the tosh we have now. £50 games and store used game policies robbing allmof us. I would be happier if microsoft allowed the original plan with digital titles. If they do that I will never buy a game disc again to hopefully make companies like game and gamestop go bankrupt.

He did say that the policies were gonna get much worse... Im sure he will spill it eventually, now that they 180'd.

This is Microsofts vision though. They wobt drop it, they will revise it. I fully expect something like this in the next Xbox.

You can buy only digital and now you don't need to download the full game to play yet... it's way easy and automatic.

There is that pastebin article....
