As long as they continue to try to charge me to use my own internet connection with their product (xbox live gold) they will never get another dime of my money.
Waiting for PS4.

Wait. Wasn't there an awesome phone that just came out called the HTC One? Just sayin.
It seems MS is making a play for your entire living room area, but to me it's like, why not just by a fucking computer and be done with it?
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.
But this is another reason to just get a PC.
I agree, I never understood why anyone would pay for this. I've heard a lot of bullshit excuses, but whateves. Another reason to game on a PC.
In conclusion PC > All.
Oh wow, that's revolutionary! I was getting tired of the need to unplug the NES to use the analog antennae.
Used games are allowed, that was a rumor.
As for everyone bitching about the name, you're all right. I can't believe they went with the "Xbox One." I've heard talk on a few podcasts that the reason they went with the "Xbox 360" instead of "Xbox 2" was because they were worried about Joe Schmo consumer thinking that the "PS3" would be better because 3 > 2. Obviously they don't care about that anymore.
I hadn't seen that article. I had only seen this:
From the Xbox FAQ:
"Q:Will Xbox One allow players to trade in, purchase and play pre-owned games?
A:We are designing Xbox One to enable customers to trade in and resell games. We’ll have more details to share later."
Xbox Wire
That Destructiod article is really damning though. It does say at the end that they haven't confirmed anything but it sounds like Spencer confirmed plenty. That sucks.
/edit
Also it sucks that there's no backwards compatibility. Not even emulation it would seem.

The 360 offered no innovation either. Didnt it have the same processor with a little better video card.
Either fucking genious or fucking ass holes or both.
I was rooting for the microfail phone, but I think im going to cheerlead for blackberry instead. Microsoft is dead to me lol.
I just want the new kinect sensor...I got the original one at work and got it working in the web browser(or .exe) with Unity 3d, openNI, and zigfu, and it's really neat, but the new one looks far better.
