Am I the only one who is bummed about the Xbox 180? The features that we lost far outweigh the features that we're getting now. If you don't understand, here's the breakdown
What we get: No DRM and the choice to be offline for more than 24 hours. (BTW, You never had to check in every day. You had to check in every 24 hours after you start a game) What we lose: Sharing game library with any 10 people any time. Storing disc games in the cloud and being able to play them anywhere. The only thing MS messed up was communication. The policies really weren't as bad as everyone was making them out to be. Believe it or not, MS wasn't out to screw everyone over. They just wanted to deliver the best features they could. That requires some consequences. |

You guys must love to have restrictions on a console which major function is to game offline. Not me! Maybe some of you guys are really young but I come from the era where gaming on a Nintendo Entertainment System and SEGA Genesis didn't require no internet connection. I could care less about playing some complete stranger online. I like freedom of CHOICE(and most gamers do to) which sounds like something some of you guys would give up for reasons unknown(possible fanboism?) I am not linked to any gaming company as I own a 360 right now and I can't stand to use a friggin Kinect. I'm old fashioned, give me a controller that works and that's all I need. Do not force something on people that most won't/care to use. I don't play dance games or interactive, pretending like I'm bowling type games. This is why I love competition because if it wasn't for competition companies would try to screw us daily. The PS4 is stronger and I'm not forced to own a PS Move plus it has no restrictions just like its predecessor and the system cost about $50 more than a 32GB Wii U while being completely 12 steps ahead of it. Another thing that bugs me with the 360 is how MS made the base model come with 4GB in order to make you spend more while Sony offered there base product with 160GB+Blu-Ray standard and no need for buying batteries for the controller. If you really think about it? MS is way more money hungry so no I do believe MS was out to screw consumers with X1 so I can understand both sides of the story.

I was actually looking forward to all the new things they were going to implement! I had no issues with them at all. This is why it's called a new generation of gaming not the same generation of gaming.... This is our fault! Hopefully down the road on Xbox some of these things they took away they will put back!
I honestly felt like we screwed ourselves http://www.dorkly.com/article/52521/...e-announcement |

Fairly sure the PS4 has a superior hardware setup. Time will tell on software, but who knows. |

4GB Xbox 360 with no internal batteries and blu-ray $199.99 160GB PS3 with blu-ray and no need for batteries $249.99 I would rather have more storage and the ease of no batteries to buy or replace vs a Kinect 2.0. They seem more essential to gaming to me. Also I am 28 too so I know you know where I'm coming from. |

The only reason I bought a 360 was for Forza 3-4! I'm not a fan of GT 1-2-3-4 but I kinda liked 5 but not as much as FM. Fighting games sucks big time on 360 and feels way better on PS3 IMO. Campaign/Adventure Action games is a toss up between both systems controllers. I will probably own both systems but I will choose PS4 first. Money isn't a issue unless you don't like to save.

I understand a lot of people are upset that they're losing the originally planned features, but what everyone seems to skip over is that "family sharing" was never ironed out. In fact, when someone asked them in a Tweet they responded that they would release details on how it worked later on. There was never any guarantee that you could share with any ten people, just that ten people in your family would have access to your library.
I would be interested to see what kind of methods and checks they had in mind, because I have a feeling when they said "family sharing" they meant actual family, as in household members. Would they require all names to be tied to a XBL gold account, a single credit card? Would they need address confirmation? I suppose we won't know now, but I think that Microsoft leaving it freely open for you to have a game in your library and just let any ten people play it is a case of "if it sounds too good to be true..." |
