Thing is, I explained multiple times and in great detail my thoughts on the matter, other users also agreed with me and yet you single out my post and accuse me of "making excuses" for Microsoft instead of me actually believing what I'm writing, it annoyed me and I'm sick to death of you using the "I was drunk" excuse every single time.

I'll explain it one more time and then I'm done with this conversation.

• I don't think the current implementation is good, at all. I don't believe they've given third party manufacturers enough time. I don't believe they've "officially approved" enough 3rd party manufacturers. It's too soon, too quickly and not enough communication was given or easier procedures implemented to quickly get "officially approved"
• I do believe the move would be a good one if implemented sensibly, if they announce a ban way ahead of time (a year), if they make the process to be "officially approved" a very low or not at all cost, a quick/easy one and if they mass approve a ton of controllers/fight sticks before the ban (aim for 80%+ of the market). I believe if it was done smartly then the pros would outweigh the cons of hopefully dealing with the RAMPANT cheating in shooters such as Call of Duty.

This announcement had two sides opposing, the fighting community were upset but the COD community were overjoyed because they are excited about the possibility of something FINALLY being done about the huge cheating problem in Call of Duty. But I'm the one called out for listening to both sides of the argument, Lol. This ain't like the Brazil decision at all which is shit all round, there are actual arguments to be made as to why this move, if smartly planned out, would be a good one, it was not smartly planned out though, as I said even before this post.

It's an utterly baffling decision to clean house of all veterans in the wake of an acquisition. Why would Sony acquire Bungie just to layoff all of the devs who made Bungie what it is today? Bungie without the veteran devs isn't even worth half of what Sony paid for them, the quality of their games will noticeably tank without the veterans there to guide the more recent recruits, and then the sales will plummet when the quality of their games plummets. I really can't understand why Sony would do this, or rather why they would allow the dynamic duo of Bungie's continued downfall, Jason Jones and Pete Parsons, to layoff all the veterans devs, instead of themselves laying off Jason and Pete and putting somebody decent in charge of the studio in their stead.

It's looking like Sony spent $3.6b on the hollow shell of a once legendary studio and their IP's.

Ok i admit i didnt read all your posts other than that last one i replied to. So honestly it felt like from that last post you where trying to make up an excuse for why this is good. And honestly your reply back to me felt very smart. You know ive always loved you as a mod. I've always went out on the line for the xbox community even got bans for it. But yeah i see now what your saying. But this still imo is a bad bad choice. Like you said Ms should of gave a warning or something. So we can both agree Ms is Shitty with this movie yeah??.

This is gas as its pretty much what Sony and Nintendo fans used to say about Rare.
