He went pretty hard at the Xbox One. He's right too. The whole system has changed so much since the initial vision its nothing like what they sold us in the beginning. Its a complete failure on the vision they had for it. Even if it can do the stuff the initially wanted the people didn't want any of that and they've doubled back on almost the entire premise they sold us on this thing.

If it was the system it is now on day one at this price and with a slight boost in specs instead of the Kinect being packed in it would have been better off for it. all the shyt they tried to do was for nothing because in the end it just became the traditional disc based non-camera required console they never wanted it to be in the first place so really what was the point?

Chicken Little, the sky is not falling :stop:
The entire vision is going along on schedule. The system is selling faster than any system before it (except the ps4 of course)
At $100 more and weaker specs on paper, it still accomplished all of that

The system and Kinect, they are one. And if you use a XB1 without a kinect, then what you are saying is correct
Thats a choice, if you choose to be foolish, you can :win:
But the system is catered to it, and its awesome sauce. Yes, I just said that. Awesome Sauce :mjez:
The whole "Cloud" thing is up and running, and is not even ready to go full blast yet.. calm yo ass down.
DX12/TitledResources/etc. Next year. We only 8months into it. Chillax
You need to find some puntang and relive some of that stress bruh.

And you really really wrong about the disc format shyt. People are downloading digitally at a MUCH HIGHER rate now. Not too long ago most of you nikkaz was trying to tell me how we couldn't handle digital downloads
We got download limits :sadbron:
They know what you downloading, they will not throttle you for that reason. They choose when they wanna penalize ppl
I never heard shyt from my cable company. Once I "cut the cord" like the coli suggested?
One month later they tryna get at me. We in the digital age bruh, like it or not
How da fukk are we talking to each other right now if we wasn't :aicmon:

I'm not a big fan of the Xbox brand but seeing what they do this gen to combat the hole they dug themselves will be one of the more interesting things to witness this gen.
They're going to have to throw more money around and lock up even more exclusive than last gen if they want to keep up with the PS4. However if you have a Xbox One or plan on getting one in the future that might just work out in your favor.

I watched this earlier. it just seems a little daft to expect these big companies to actually "apologize" for something. to apologize is to admit you were wrong, and that's something big publicly traded companies don't like to do

Just saw the video and he's right on all accounts it amazes me those 3 jockriders still caping for xbox one when theyve lied to them at every turn, remember the kinect cant be taken off, its integral, they patched that out, no used games, no trading games, you cant play the system with an internet connection, patched that out...

If they didn't change up from the 'initial vision', they would be getting pummeled even worse than they already are. The original vision was an abomination.
