The new Xbox...

Watching the live announcement / event right now.

The new name of it is actually "Xbox One"....seriously?
Does Microsoft realize that gamers worldwide has been referring to the original, first Xbox as exactly that for years now?

Way to give a new product an old, dated-sounding name.. :cool-smiley-008:

Also... is this even a game console anymore? lol... They go on and on about tv channels, media player, Skype, apps..I thought this was a GAME console?

I understand why they went with xbox one, I assume the thinking is that it's one device for all of your entertainment (games, movies, online, etc...). But yea, kinda confusing.
 


The one gaming rig I wont be buying.

If you buy this you will be the only ONE playing it
 
they kept going on and on about how you can change channel from this to that and back again.. and all the time i'm looking at my remote control and thinking " lol wut..?"
 
And the only way this will be fought off is if people stop buying the console and stop downloading the games. Even so, I always envisioned that this is the way games would go. Eventually I'm pretty convinced that the games will run of some remote server and it'll just stream the image back to you in real time. Probably not until fiber is prevalent though.

Australians will feel me on this one, all these broadband quota bullshits.

A Confusing/Confused Mental State in the subject is the RESET mechanism for IMPLANTING THE NLP!!!!! lol



Oh my young Marketing Jedi's, tap DEEPER into the FORCE of NLP and you will understand the TRUE nature of this EMOTIONAL MARKETING CAMPAIGN!!


ROFLMFAO!!


You are BOTH correct!!!


Just as "BILLY Boy" had "foolishly" (Or not?) announced back with Windows NT and XP that he wanted to COMPLETELY remove DOS, this too is a move AWAY from the Elite and to the Mindless Masses. (Which reminds me of this Old Adage: "Sell to the Classes and you'll live with the Masses, but if you sell to the Masses you WILL live with the Classes!!")


The Ultimate End Game of the NAME in this new console is the subconscious association with XO.


I said young Marketing Jedi above due to it seeming that in this thread the NLP element of this MS Marketing Campaign has been undetected. (Just as the EVIL EMPIRE had intended!! )


Just as Saturn had STORMED the Car industry with their "Touchy Feely" Car Family campaign, MS will undoubtedly still do quite well with this new console and their restrictive media acquisition for use with it.


They had LEAKED OUT that the new xBox 720 (Which subconsciously IMPLIES that it will be TWICE as good as the 360.) would be backwards compatible to ALL xBox 360 games.


This PLANTED THE SEED of "Relief" that current game investments could still be used. This then allowed the consumer's minds to relax and NURTURE that seed into a nice and healthy little plant.


Just as Pavlov had discovered with his dogs, so too does MS know that their TARGET group will also be subconsciously manipulated. As in, the FIRST IMPRINT PATTERN will HOLD for the Long Term.


Just as we ALL Bitch and Complain over the MS Operating Systems, yet over 90% of all Businesses use it to run their productivity software. Then you have like 90% of all SERVERS which connect and tie the WORLD's People AND Businesses together using LINUX!!!



So, MS is going to LIMIT & RESTRAIN Freedoms on the New Gaming Console and GET AWAY with it by sending a NLP message of XOXOXOXO to all who buy one!!!


Genius!!! Pure Genius!!!

Bravo!!

Touche'!!!


Lulz



P.S. I liken this to the Drug Company ADs on TV that show the most serene and warm fuzzy family situations while telling you that their drug CAN KILL YOU!!!!

Interesting how 10% of the AD tells you the small BENEFIT of their product while the other 90% is telling you about how DETRIMENTAL it is to not only your health, but YOUR LIFE!!


LOL
 
I love how Xbox Support 3 is being totally deceptive about the game rentals issue in hopes of pulling a fast one on everyone to quickly settle the matter. If you read between the lines, he's saying that you can play the single player campaign via a rental, but you have to pay full price if you want to play online since it'll be tied to your xbox live account.

This!! ^^^^^^


I play mostly RPG's in Single Player Mode. I'm not into Online MMO's or FPS's.


I "was" looking forward to the New XO, but now I'm watching the PS4 to see how that develops and will just keep using my 360 for the games I have now.

Every time I read one of your posts I have to check and make sure I didn't just recently take drugs.

You should look into doing gaming on your PC instead. I have my PC hooked up to my TV and it's better than any game console. I have tons of options.

Do I want to play my first person shooters with a mouse and keyboard?

Do I want to play my emulated games with a controller?

Do I want to use a controller for console ports?

Do I want to play my game with mods?

Do I want to pay for my game via Steam with minimal DRM or do I want to go DRM free with gog.com?

There's tons flexibility with PC gaming. Also game prices are cheaper, especially when you factor in steam sales.

Once the new console generation rolls out, I plan to do a big upgrade and am buying a 3D tv too.
 
May the FARCE/FARTS be with US!!!!

Microsoft’s new Kinect patent goes Big Brother, will spy on you for the MPAA | ExtremeTech

Microsoft has filed for a Kinect-related patent, and it’s a doozy of an application. The abstract describes a camera-based system that would monitor the number of viewers in a room and check to see if the number of occupants exceeded a certain threshold set by the content provider. If there are too many warm bodies present, the device owner would be prompted to purchase a license for a greater number of viewers.

IT JUST KEEPS GETTING WORSE
