 I really enjoyed this article:

Nearly lost in the Internet’s collective high-fiving over Microsoft’s stunning reversal was the fact that the official announcement contains probably the most hilarious passive-aggressive statement ever to show up on Xbox.com. “We imagined a new set of benefits such as easier roaming, family sharing, and new ways to try and buy games,” wrote Xbox executive Don Mattrick.

We dreamed such big dreams. We did it all for you. And you killed our dreams.

Wow, i'm shocked. I never expected microsoft to change the online requirements and that other stuff. I'm not exactly sure what to do. I still pre-ordered the ps4 but maybe i'll get xbox one too....yep, that's one of the advantages of having a lot of money saved up XD

I'd hold off on getting the Xbone for awhile.

Interesting article. The fact that Microsoft reversed their policies merely a month after their announcement seems to suggest they hadn't really thought them through.

I was just reminded of something by TotalBiscuit and that is the "cloud." If publishers develop games that require the cloud, we're still operating under a form of DRM.

I think it means they are developing for two different systems essentially. One with the cloud and one without the cloud. Which is just going to get confusing. Some games you can only buy if you have a good enough connection I suppose.

If devs are using the cloud, that means they won't load all the assets onto your disc, right?

Meh... too little, too late, and I still don't want to pay for a kinect that I don't want. Plus I don't entirely trust them to live up to this reversal.

Nice to see MS admit they're wrong, but I'm still getting a PS4 for these reasons:

-$100 cheaper
-PS4 still has more powerful tech
-X1's built-in Kinect still concerns me
-PS4 will offer streaming PS3 titles, of which there are some exclusives I'm interested in (I'm a 360 owner)
-No X1 exclusives interest me, while some of the PS4's look interesting, particularly Infamous: Second Son and The Order: 1886

[Salamander Soup]

I'm still switching to PS4 over the Xbox One. Better specs, better price, no Skykinect.

But I'm stunned Microsoft did a big 180 and I respect the fact they made these changes. Not that they had much choice, based upon the reaction of consumer demand. With this action, Microsoft ensured the Xbox One has a much, much brighter future.

Win for gaming confirmed.

Don't quote me on it, but yeah, I think thats how it works. So I assume there's going to be certain games, maybe most of them, that simply won't work for you if you don't have a good enough internet connection. It's probably too late now to change that in some of the games in development. Unless using the cloud at all was complete lies.

This is fantastic news. I guess the PS4 will have competition after all.

Reading twitter about the Xbox 180 and the average intelligence I'm seeing is staggering.

Indeed. Whether you're buying an X1 or not, MS has ensured it'll be a much more viable competitor to the PS4. Competition is always good for the video game industry, and I was concerned Sony might become arrogant and overconfident if they overly dominated the next gen.

Some will, I won't deny that

But not all of them

Goddamnit.

I'm so skeptical of Microsoft more and more.

Not really surprised, it's more appealing to some people now

Sony is in trouble. I would hope all the arrogance and overconfidence has been beat out of them over the last couple years.

Uh, I don't think Sony is in trouble. They're still considerably cheaper than their competitor and appeal more to the traditional gamers.
