Not sure if you lost a bet, or Microsoft actually lost you.... Microsoft is betting the farm that the casual market is a bunch of dumbasses that won't figure out CoD and Madden are on other systems. Not sure what the TV is for, since that market is starting to die at this point.

They announce they are going to pay gamers $15 a month to use XBL gold. No DRM. No more kinect. 50 exclusives.

Ms just has to be like Xbox 360 at launch but better. Show some Gears of War and Halo. The main thing is to have all the multiplats. The 360 sold well just on multiplats and Xbox Live. Since the 360 was pretty much a success, they should have an even bigger library of multiplats. They have plenty of core and Kinect exclusives, so that will help a lot. 

Each new Xbox console only keeps getting more popular.

They lost a purchase from me with their online check in system so, nothing they show will matter. Hopefully Sony doesn't do the same at E3.

Today makrked the full, clear, blunt explanation on all MS policies for the Xbox One, from used games to privacy and DRM. Simply put if you don't l;ike it don't buy the Xbox One for watch their E3 show as you now know exactkly where you stand.

All MS has to do to win is exactly what they said they will do. 90 minutes of games. Meanwhile Sony will relay their DRM situation and since it will look just like or similar to MS's, fans will turn against them for having mislead them and not revealed it sooner that they are following what the publishers want. That reveal will overshadow their games as MS has the so called bad news out already.

MS just needs to hammer games, show the price, and set the release date.

Maybe if I keep saying it, it will be true... Considering Sony has already confirmed it will be left to the publishers, not sure where the backlash would come from other than the uninformed. Considering Sony has already said the system is totally offline capable (god that is a weird phrase), even if a game does require online for some completly arbitrary reason, plenty of other games will be avalible. Considering the above, I would love to hear just how far you think a publisher can go with limiting a game when it never has to be registered online at all.

With core gamers?  I don't think they can.  Too much damage done.  But a huge lineup of great new games will at least give remaining fanboys something to cling to.

Not sure really, but it'll be universal whatever happens. I just can't get upset over a once a day checkin with my system and I al alright, not great, but alright with MS practices. At least I know what they all are now, lol. I just want my Xbox One games. Its my fav hobby and its changing, but life often does at times.

Here is how: 1. Kinnect will bundle but will not be necessary for the console to work. 2. Pre owned fees gone. 3. Always online will be only a way to auto update your console and content, but you will be able to play games with NO connection required. 4. Here are our exclusives and the console's price will be $400 or below 5. Here is Battlefront III, KI with an arcade control included and another -no one saw that coming game- 6. 2 Kinnect games. Skittles the tiger shooting/desmembration and a yoga simulator featuring sasha grey. 7. Retro compatibility and X360 accounts will port to Xbox 1. 8. We so sorry for last days. THAT IS HOW YOU WIN, BUT ONLY NUMBER 8 WILL HAPPEN, AT MOST.

I wonder what it is going to take for you to open your eyes man. Seriously, could Microsoft just take a giant shit on your chest and you would be fine with it? Do you really have no limit to how much MS can bend you over? We haven't heard so much as a single doubt from you. You really are exactly the type of person that MS is now targeting.

Right now, they could announce every major publisher has signed exclusive deals with them, and for me, that would just mean I will be quitting gaming. It doesn't matter what they got, I refuse to buy this thing on several principles.

MS is truly done! This coming from a gamer who has choosen them first since 2001 launch. I usually own every console in a generation. But I won't come anywhere near this console. they had a chance to listen to gamers and stuck thier middle fingers out. This console will bomb epicly. the first year it will sell ok to trendy techy type and stupid unknowing fools. Once that drys up its over. no true gamer will get this trash. the snake finally swallowed to much of its own tail!

They win if they announce Halo 5 (that looks better than KZ which won't happen but lets say it does), a new Conker, Perfect Dark 2, Fallout 4 exclusive for cablebox, new banjo that isn't shit and most importantly up their pathetic console specs to at least ps4 level or this thing won't feel like an upgrade.

No man, its not. I can certainly understand different priorities. But you can honestly say that none of what MS has done and said lately regarding the Xbone is troubling you in the slightest? It just seems that no matter what they announce, you will be right there to support it. There is nothing wrong with loving the shit out of your hobby, but none of this has fazed you. I just don't get how none of this can bother even the most hardcore of the lems in the slightest. It just seems like blind loyalty at this point.

Dude.. I feel the same as you about some of these folks!!!... I mean I LOVE my 360.. but can't stand this crap going down. And as of now I'm never getting an X1.. the 24 hour check in with daddy method can go screw itself.

Not to mention, what happens in 10 years when those "check in" servers are shutdown and re-purposed?
