Good news for sure.

And I think there are more good 180 news to come at Gamescon.

Like? I don't see them changing much else about the Xbox One personally.

Better late. Nice to see that they are bending over backwards to fix things, still surprised at how it got so bad in the first place.

Technically its early, since November is more then 3 months away

And we already know that November will come and go WITHOUT indies being able to use normal XBox Ones as dev units. This has already been stated by MS And it should not be a surprise since it requires to modify at least the Hypervisor software. Given that MS is late in the development cycle, they simply do not have the time to change all this until some time into 2014.
Seriously, this is about the fifth or sixth thread about "awesome indie support". Is that really necessary?

Given the hundreds of threads about how their indie support sucked......why do you care that the opposite is brought to light? You better have petitioned the excess amount of "MS doesn't care about indie devs" threads or else this post seems biased. Which is cool, if you are, not gonna judge.



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

Oh I wouldn't really consider more game announcements a 180 but I'd love to see more game announcements, that is the best part about the Xbox One after all the games.

well then again their big motto at E3 was "we are listening" so they've been on point since E3 after all....

I think they were always planning on something like this, and the rumors were just speculation on crazy (like one of the girl gone videos.)

I remember reading from a developer a while ago who worked on other platforms how much he loved the Xbox 360's development support tools. He said, "They were deliver on gossamer (or Angel) wings" or something like that.

Microsoft give developers free training on the XBE platform.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!
