I still believe all the all people that were complaining were never gunna buy and xbone anyways.

Mostly trolls. I complained because it would affect me a lot. I travel for a month vacation sometimes and my $500 equipment wouldn't serve me outside of the originally 21 countries list.

At least some of them have to be actual potential customers and even 360 owners, and not just Sony fanboys. Microsoft didn't flip on all those policies because of Sony fans making noise on the internet. They flipped because of preorder numbers.

blah blah blah. Major, you need more then that to win the gamers back.

No one said about about deserving an apology - there thread title says that MS is sorry.

You mean thank you Sony fanboys ^^

I don't understand this line of thinking, I seriously don't.

People act as if it was only within the forums and forget that the XBone was having pre-order and/or Gamestop toubles and for that had to double back on their initial plans and change them. If the people outside of the forums weren't bitching then they wouldn't have changed all their plans.

No need to make people here look bad for complaining when their complaints were proven to be justified.

They should apologize to people like me. I have supported the 360 having come from the Playstation brand with their previous consoles and I was totally excited about the things it had going for it prior to all the changes.

Except it would have - you would even have been able to purchase more stuff as long as you have a credit card registered in one of those 21 countries.

Bingo.. Corporations don't have emotions, and thus cannot apologize. They are simply trying to save face and thus possibly gain some sales, because they saw the backlash from the heavy use of DRM and basically taking rights away from the consumers. Even though they've largely corrected the situation, I'm still not buying Xbone on principle, based mainly off the fact that they thought they could push this on consumers in the first place. The other reason is price.. I may not get a PS4 either, but I'd be far more likely to buy one than I ever would an Xbone.. And this is coming from a big 360 fan, who has purchased several dozen games for the console over the years.
