If ms back pedaled on drm would you be suckered into following?

I don't think there is a chance they will "backpedal" on the whole DRM thing.

"Hey guys, remember all the stupid stuff we told you about our console? Yeah, we were just joking! lol?"

It's going to make them look very bad. But at the same time, it will give the people what they want.. Whatever they decide to do, it will be interesting to see them play this game of chicken with their potential customers.

[QUOTE="superclocked"]Terrible advice? About 95% of people on Tumblr disagree with you. And Microsoft is still mass deleting comments on their Facebook page, and their employees are still upvoting positive comments and downvoting negative comments. I know FOR A FACT that Microsoft employees are making fun of and laughing at the people criticizing the XBox One.. I use my 360 for SINGLE player games. I have my gaming PC for mutliplayer games...superclocked

really?

ms is making fun of people?

gawd y'all!

imma tell my mom!

and 95% of tumbler is upset? about being on the internet? omg! they should go on the internet and complain!

how can we get this information about internet tyranny out??? hey i know! lets post it on the internet!

and omg! did you know that on tumbler you are required to get on the internet? dat shyt is outrageous! ms has won!

they have forced tumber users to use the internet!

quick! to facebook to complain about internet requirements!

ermahgod! :lol:

i'm sorry bud but how can i possibly take this seriously?

Throw in BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY (NOT going to happen) with the 360 and I might. :roll:

If they took away DRM and such I wouldnt see a problem anymore. It would be all about the games at that point and they already showed a pretty nice lineup.

nothing has upset the internet more about next gen than having to be on the internet. :P

i have not even been on there in years.

i'm posting this by smoke signal.

seriously though, you have to see the irony of an  entire generation of people that have not been without the internet for longer than a 12 hour stretch in the last 15 years  being all nutty about an internet requirement right?

cuz to me, that is some pretty funny stuff.

Their intentions were clear. I'm done supporting them.

TC isn't very smart LOL bu bu teh principle :cry:

Honestly I couldn't care less, I'm not going to deprive myself of games I want just to set some kind of point that no one will hear.

That's right, your a die hard xfan.

I'm really just a gamer though. Thats why Im going PS4 this year.

But MS's questionable policies will not stop me getting a X1 in the long run. I don't need to deprive myself of those exclusives just for some stupid point :P

Technically I am really not paying for online, just ps+ which I already have subbed to well into late 2014. Nothing changes for me. If they took all the goodness of plus away then yeah I would have a problem. Midnightshade29

Justifying pay2play online just like the lems did all those years with some subjective value you've placed on the service above other, competing services.

Cows honestly go too far with the hypocrisy sometimes.

I wants to know how many people would revert their stance and get xbone day 1. How many here don't have principals or ideals. And how many here are smart and see no matter their stance they were still the company to try pushing this crapMidnightshade29

I like to have my several hundred bucks worth of game library on a system that is serviced by somewhat reliable people. (So no.)

Nah, Halo 5 would be tempting, but 343 has CoDified the franchise. I would also need MS to drop the 24 mandatory check, DRM, mandatory Kinect, and drop the price for me to consider buying one.

listening to customers is bad?

CaseyWegner

It's obvious at this point they didn't listen/care and if they change policies is because they are shitting their pants.

LIke others have said... if MS changed all the things I hate about the XBONE... why shouldnt I give them money for a good product?

Isn't it enough I'm forgoing the chance to play some franchises I like, in order to prove a point. If the BS DRM policy was removed, I'd have no reason not to get one eventually.

Sadly I think MS is pompous enough to push forward with this crap console as it is.

Soo.... CYA MS, I'll be over in the Sony camp... you know where I am, when you're ready to apologize.

$ony stabbed millions of gamers in the back by taking away free online. i will not support such a shady and greedy company; that's why i'm going with the Microsoft Xbox One this gen instead of the next pay$tation.

Still $100 more than their competition and they aren't putting up enough games that I care about to make me want to pay $100 more.

The price tag(being too much) and the games(being nothing that really makes me want to get it anytime soon) is a larger hurdle for me buying it than any of that. Don't really care about the other stuff, because it doesn't really effect me.

[QUOTE="Riverwolf007"]we would have been calling this e3 2006 part 2.senses_fail_06

I would be glad they changed their policy, but I would still refuse to buy their console on principle. They tried/are trying their very best to fvck me over. Why do they deserve my money?

$399 no DRM and always online crap and i would buy one for sure.
