This is probably true, but honestly setting their console to go digital for the sake of competing with Steam wouldn't have been a totally bad thing (I personally prefer physical copies. I hate having my games on HDD). Their problem was the lack of communication.

I have a feeling they were never ready to show the DRM stuff in the first place, and some idiot Microsoft employee spilled the beans to a journalist, and from that point forward they were doing damage control. It's wishful thinking, but I'd like to think Microsoft are not so stupid that they didn't expect a massive backlash.

They've been acting scared shitless too, dodging interviews and such. It would've been better if they had been upfront about it from the very beginning instead of prancing around like a bunch of dumbasses. That just made it worse.

With the playing field somewhat level now I'm still 110% on board with a PS4. For me it primarily comes down to money. New baby on the way I am not going to drop down more loot for a lesser system. I don't particularly care about Halo. And the few other exclusives I've seen for Juan haven't really impressed me enough to sway my opinion.

Those pre-order numbers must have been real bad for this to happen. While I'm still unsure of support Microsoft, I may consider getting the Xbone alongside the PS4. for me price was never the issue. it was their arrogance and anti-consumer tactics.

I'm glad MS did this, competition is consumer best friend.

I didn't watch the full M$ conference at E3, but I remember people talking about a demo that froze in the middle, and the people on the stage were arguing like (It's frozen? wanna stop? what you wanna continue?)

Anyone have a link to a video about that special moment?

**Carth** · 2013-06-20 07:19

I think that was for Assassin's Creed.

Oh that's a different one. I'm using ePSXe on my galaxy S4 and its been flawless for FFT and Legend of Legaia (haven't tried anything else)

I use fpse as well. Never tried ePSXe so I don't know if it's better or worse, but it works well enough for most of the games I tried.

You know now that I think about it, what if this whole "Xbox One Eighty" thing was a brilliant marketing scheme to make it seem like M$ is actually listening to their consumers? What if they actually renamed it Xbox 180?

Blaming consumers for complaining about a company's shitty policy decisions. Classy.

I liked the part where he just assumed the servers would be online forever and did lots of hand-waving.

Why would I be in here eating crow? I said the whole time I suspect a lot of their policies would change. Idiots.
