Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Xbox One's fast change of policies.

I seen that some xbox fans are still pissed about the DRM policies that where going to be used with the xbox one. I'm here to tell you that a turn around like this is not heard of in any big corporation or bizz.  The turn around means they listened and gave into the consumer, most companies take a long time to react and change policy.

We also got rumors that sony was going this route and changed position last minute, not sure if there is any proof to this but I'm sure they most likely did. This was not MS or SONY wanting this so bad, this was third parties like, EA, ACTIVISION and all the other big players. It has been really hard for them to make great games while taking a chance and making a profit.  I also don't like playing the same games over and over. It's like the top 40 on the radio, sure thats what most people are listening to but not me.

So all in all, you should forgive MS and this is why, They listened to you and fast. They have made Xbox One/live better by allowing one live account to play on all profiles, they have added 300,000 servers, they added the cloud and they have produced some great first party games. Illumi-room will launch in only a matter of time. So come back to the dark side. This is what dreams are made of.

P.S. No this is not NSANITY....... Yes he writes everything MS. Lets give him a big shout out for all his good work around here. He keeps me coming back everyday and the xbox fans should command him on keeping it interesting for us.

deaf ears my friend :( but i agree people say they only looked at the preorder sales and that is why they changed but those people fail to realize that yes if the numbers were good they may not have changed and would prove that those complaining were more or less the minority. But since people voted with there wallets it showed the ms had made a mistake



No matter what they do, there will always be those who complain.

You go from "not sure there is any proof" to "they most likely did" in the same sentence.





I'm just happy that they did change it, now it has a chance of me actually buying it.

So I'm not allowed to have a opinion. Do I need to mark that, that was my opinion. C'mon cut me a break.



You have to be mentally unstable to trust a corporation that is trying to make money. But I like MS the most out of 3 because they're not scared of making choices and games that I like.
They're natural leaders and not "Mr me too".

I'm very excited for Illumiroom, the goggles thing and to see how Kinect 2.0 will fare this time. And Killer Instinct.

Lol I'm sure they changed their policies hours before their press conference. Hey they probably even reduced the price minutes before the E3 conference so they had a 100$ advantage! If it was that simple Microsoft would have done a 180 the day after E3, due to the MASSIVE backlash. Don't be ridiculous. 



i find it funny that now almost everybody in gaming forums is like "they changed it so fast which means they could also go back to the bad drm stuff very fast".

if sony would react to a backlash (if because of bad pre-orders, many complaints on the internet or whatever) most people would be "woah they listened so fast to us, sony is so awesome to us"



Ms have a long hard journey ahead this gen ;)
