This seems to be the most fitting (if also slightly disturbing) portrayal of M$ sudden "change of heart" and attitude towards having to change things about the console:

Count me out of the initial XBOX/PS4 plunge. I'm going to sit back and wait to see what happens.

I'm going to wait on XB1 for now, since all of the games I'm really interested in are multi-platform.

I put in a reservation for a PS4, but that was mainly because my local gamestop still had some reserves left while I decide if I really want one at launch or not. Figured I could always make someone's day by opening up a slot or possibly just reselling it if the systems sell out.

:rofl:

.... Zynga, Mattrick will fit right in with their model of "just take this other game, re-skin it and deliver it back under a newer, shitty package." This guy has had a shitty run of jobs, first being president of EA - then Microsoft - and now Zynga? Good lord.

Sounds like he was forced to leave if he ended up at Zynga of all places. :ugh:

EDIT: This is the guy that's replacing him.

Can someone compile a big list of things that are still wrong with the xbox 1 so I can send it to my friend. He is looking for any excuse to get it because he has an xbox 360 and he seems to have brand loyalty or something.
Anyway, I sucks at arguing so can we just make a big intimidating list of thinks that suck about it.

At the moment it is a matter of the kinect always having to be connected and which has better exclusives. They pretty much got rid of everything else that was wrong with it and a few things that were pretty cool too (throwing the baby out with the bath water much).

Honestly my main reason for not getting it is because of the ordeal itself rather than the console. I like the PS4 exclusives better too and it is cheaper to boot. I do like the XBOX controller though.

From what I've heard, he's just being the boss temporarily. They'll most likely find a permanent replacement soon.

If XBone's first game is Steve Ballmer giving himself a heart attack with 1:30 of cardio, count me in.

So I've been replaying Dead Rising recently. It makes me want to pick up Xbox One just for DR3. I honestly never cared about the humor in DR now that I think think about it. I like the contrasted vibes from the first game, but my favorite part was when it got dark and the zombies got super aggressive. I goes from a light hearted(albeit gory) hack n, slash to a legit survival horror game. The reason I didn't like Dead Rising 2 as much is because they took away the campy horror vibes. At least 70% of DR2 takes place in some brightly lit casino type area.

I still think DR3 looks to brown and American(Canadian), but I feel like I would enjoy it anyways. But $500... damn..

While I haven't used it in some time, I always liked XBL. It's very clean and efficient, or was before avatars and ads all over the dashboard. Remember 360 Live circa 05-07?;_;

I'm curious to see how/if they'll redesign it.
