Re: Next Gen Consoles
Might be a rumor too I dunno i just saw it on twitter was too lazy to check before I posted it . I see they are still taking preorders online too.
Re: Next Gen Consoles
Huh, so is that pointing to people being able to opt into sharing each other's stuff? Because if so...fuck yeah. Right?

Re: Next Gen Consoles
Well I'm happy MS did go back on some of these policies. They don't deserve applause or anything, but I'm happy. I like video games and I'm sure the Xbox One will have enough cool exclusives that I will really want one and now I won't feel icky about the idea of it. Before the DRM stuff made me not even think about buying an Xbone, it would have been a down the line purchase as I think MS still doesn't have the franchises that make me really excited and it still likely will be a down the line purchase due to the price. But I really think they showed a good lineup of games at E3 and now I can look at some of those with a lot more excitement.
I kind of wonder how people would have viewed Sony's conference if MS would have announced this at E3. Obviously the Xbox One is less powerful hardware and costs more, but I think Sony's conference would have been looked at more realistically. They announced one new PS4 exclusive at the conference. And basically said fuck the Vita. I think it is partially because third-party games on PS4 were sort of looked at as pseudo-exclusives because they didn't have DRM and all that. Like to some they might as well have been exclusives. Obviously Sony will have the exclusives because their first-party development is incredible, but I think they would have been questioned more for not showing more of them.

Re: Next Gen Consoles
The Xbone's DRM restrictions are being lifted with a day one patch. I'm waiting until we get a model with it built in, and probably a price drop or a Halo 5 Xbone bundle. Wuu and PS4 first still though, but the Xbone don't look too bad when its not trying to fuck everyone over.
Honestly though, i think MS did this cause no retailer would agree to those ludicrous trade in procedures. They'd end up giving customers shit for credit and NO ONE would trade ANYTHING in.

Re: Next Gen Consoles
I see myself picking one up too now. Halo 5, Project Spark, Sunset Overdrive, and assuming Titanfall sequels don't make it to PS4 since I know they won't be on 360 along with rumors of a new Banjo Kazooie make one tempting. I'm sure by the time I'd get around to it too there would be even more.

Re: Next Gen Consoles
Watching MS backpeddle is priceless. I wish they'd have done it slightly later into the generation, at least give Sony a year to dominate nonstop, but whatever. I suppose this is good seeing as now there'll be some level of actual competition, MS will be okay in the long run on the console front now.
I just really want to remove the guy who does their E3 conferences. Every time I see the fucker I have an overwhelming urge to hit something.

Oh man the most exciting thing is we can all get Ryse now! I know we were all bummed to be missing out on that gem.
Re: Next Gen Consoles
That guy would be a lot better if he'd get a real haircut and wear a tie. Look like a professional for fuck's sake.

Also I'd rather stab myself than play Ryse.

Re: Next Gen Consoles
Policy changes mean I'll probably get an Xbox One eventually. I'm still going Ps4/WiiU first.

Re: Next Gen Consoles
It's a little depressing seeing how many people are now willing to drop on their knees and blow MS WHILE preordering the Xbox One just because they backpeddled. Sure you was only setting forward and insulting consumers who didn't agree with all your shit but what does that matter just in the past now, right? Fuck MS and the people buying a One on release.
Re: Next Gen Consoles
I'm still really turned off by the things that were said when Microsoft was defending their policy. What arrogant scummy assholes they were. So for now I still have no plans to buy an Xbox One. Maybe in a few years if there are enough exclusives I feel like I'm missing out on.

That is if people aren't like "FUCK MICROSOFT...here's my money though."

Re: Next Gen Consoles
You all said I was a fool when I said that, but just gonna say it once: Called it. *happy dance*
That said, shows that they didn't have much faith in what they were doing anyway. Like when Steam came out with Half Life 2 Valve didn't backpeddle they said "just trust us, it's gonna be great" because they knew it would be. And like choco said, a lot of the damage from the way they were treating consumers before they reversed their horrendous policies has been done.
Also, anyone else having issues with quoting people on the forum lately? If I try to quote someone I can't actually click outside the quote box to type normally, it's weird. Never had that issue before.

Nice. You did call that. Though I'd like to not be lumped into the group that called you a fool. I never called you a fool. At least not for that!
I don't know what happened to quoting either, but I am having the same issues. I imagine it is some forumotion thing because I did nothing. They expanded the toolbar as well. I'll see if I can do anything about it.

Hey, thanks! Good call.
Also, I like Penny Arcade Report p-spiddy. Might be worth having a look if you haven't already?

Re: Next Gen Consoles
Now that the X-box thing has cleared up can we go back to complaining about the lack of backwards compatibility again?

I didn't have a Gamecube so I missed that whole generation of Nintendo games.

Wind Waker was the shit. If you can, emulate that bad boy. Or get a Wii U.
