My respect for Microsoft is going down the toilet. Not only do they earn money off of those monthly subscription fees they charge, they now want to take a cut of games THEY did NOT develop. I'm shocked Microsoft has the audacity to even attempt to do this. I've bought every x-box to date and hundreds of games for each system. I will DEFINITELY not be buying the new one if this is what they are doing. I also will not be renewing my x-box live subscription for the x-box 360. Can't support this kind of crap.
@Templar242 @SambaLele Yeah, if they want me to buy into such a bs business model, they better be hanging one heck of a carrot out so I can't resist...and for this kind of change, I'm talking about virtual reality or something truly mind blowing - instead, I merely see a step up in graphics and functionality...way to tempt me Microsoft, I'm soiling myself in excitement (not)
@EchoStation Also: who really wants to carry a large system comprised of two parts (kinnect and x-box) around to other locations? maybe a few people, but in general, it stays with the entertainment center. If I wanted something mobile, I'd purchase a laptop, DS, ipad etc. etc.
This is the least excited I have ever been about a new console - the x-box representative tried to spin the answers around and full out dodged some critical questions. I won't support this new edition, and I have owned consoles all my life since the Atari days.
