Seems like the fact that Xbox isnt dominating this generation is benefiting those of us who have one because they are going out there way to add things to gain more interest.
its clear to me now that MS had an actual vision and plan for this gen, moreso than the other big 2. i wouldnt know that if hadnt bought the xbone though

Bingo. Blind loyalty and bad marketing by Microsoft has a lot of people missing out on a great system. Oh well.

:dead:

Where do you guys come up with this shyt?

Microsoft has literally back tracked, 180'd and flip flopped on every single aspect of the xbox one.


Sony and nintendo are the same consoles they debuted. The xbox one is a gimped 180 of what they debuted.

youre really not going to understand what im saying unless you spend time using an xbox one.
and youre getting this from someone who has always had a sony bias. but its clear (by comparison) they didnt really have a plan except to not get left behind.
and nintendo has been criticized for the aimless nature of wii u's UI

this is not true...all the big 3 had visions, ms and nin's just not going the way they wanted, so they're admending their plans....which is business...

as for the topic: that's cool and something that benefits the gamers....i'm all for it.....ps+ used to do something similar with trial periods, at least on ps3....dont know if they do it on ps4, havent looked for it....

im talking about their overall philosophy about unified user experience, convergence and being the center of the living room. everything theyre doing falls in line with that perfectly like theyve been saying since day 0, despite handing sony the W

its just likw windows phone 8, the experience is a LOT different because its meant to be. but you wont get it unless you use it

i understand that, but just cause they are making adjustments to their original plan and starting to see success doesnt mean the other 2 didnt have plans...sony and nin had plans when they launched their systems too...the majority of companies have plans when they launch something, that's business....it's just that not all plans work how they'd like them to, so they make adjustments...that's what ms is doing right now....the main adjustment they've made: they've realized that the xbox 1 is a video game system first and foremost....which is benefical for gamers, like the topic this thread is about....

why would they do that when they have psn now and could charge people for trials
