Microsoft reverses stance on XboxOne

The Kinect is still a problem for me, although I was hoping they'd keep the rest and go the steam route and offer weekly sales to make the DRM not a big deal. People on Steam don't care about the DRM anymore because of all the sales. 

 

 

I wasn't getting a Xbox one at launch because I wanted to make sure they were going to have the sales before jumping aboard.

I started out with the ps one. Then ps2, moved to the xbox 360, bought a ps3. I'm now going back to the Playstation solely because of the price. Before it was because of all the bull MS wants to RAM down our throats and this whole "elitist" demographic they are trying to create by their initial plans. I love the xbox 360 but I'm not paying 500 dollars for that system. Some may say $100 isn't much savings but when you're not making dollars, you tend to be frugal. Ms has rubbed me the wrong way as of late. The PS4 has so much going for it.

I actually like the idea of dumping used games, I think MS fuged up by not going further and eliminating physical discs. The Steam model is the way to go.

I would rather see the money spent on used game sales go to the developer

if they do that though they would need to substantially drop the prices on their games like on steam and they won't do that so it doesn't matter

I don't care how cheap steam is, it'll never get to the point where you can get games for $1 a piece like I have at flea markets and certain websites.

I don't see why Kinect would be a deal breaker for anyone?  Because it will be on ALL Xbox consoles the developers can integrate with it much better.  I think it has a lot of potential.

 

Gamers who choose to connect to the internet regularly should still reap the benefit of having "cloud based" games.

Kinect is a deal breaker, because a lot of people, like me, don't want it, don't care for it, don't need it.  I really can't stress this enough...I don't want a Kinect, I will not use the Kinect, I don't like having to pay for a Kinect.

Why not?  Physical discs are the past, they only serve to unnecessarily increase costs. 

 

Downloading games is a great idea...unfortunately a lot of people in the world don't have high speed internet.  Hell even in the States some people don't.  I know it's not even offered in my area (no cable, no DSL).  I have to use Verizon Homefusion and that has a 30 GB/month cap (well actually that's the top tier plan and I pay extra for that). The 30 GB plan is the most they offer right now.  Most games are anywhere between 1 GB and 5 GB.  Next gen games will be even more.

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
    • 184 yards game, 61% completion 11 tds 5ints    thats ranks :check notes:  25th in the nfl
