Microsoft Conspiracy Thread

[Mogatron]

I feel like they're making all these horrible claims and ignoring all the complaints on purpose. The console is to be released in November, right? I think around September or October they'll be like, "Okay, we listened to you all, and we're gonna implement these changes. It'll be like the 360 but with better graphics and stuff. No more DRM bullshit, none of that check online once a day stuff; just good, solid, gaming fun."

And then people will love them for it because they'll think their complaints were heard, so people will buy the Xbone out of gratitude.

My friend had the idea that this is all a massive Springtime for Hitler ploy on Microsoft's part.
To what end? He had no idea, nor do I.

He also told me that the Bandwidth required for the Xbone's Cloud fetish will make the console unplayable in everywhere in Ireland that's not Dublin, thanks to our stone age internet infrastructure.
Still wondering if that's something to be proud of though. :/

Sony has to be in on the conspiracy as well, maybe Nintendo. The big three found that, during the current generation, overall sales were poor (at least in their minds), so they made a pact: every generation Sony or Microsoft will produce a clear winner while the other produces a clear loser. Nintendo will create a radically different and slightly gimmicky console to get the remaining market. Sony and Microsoft then split the money to ensure neither goes bankrupt. The PS4 may be an awesome dream machine, but the PS5 will enslave your children and eat your pets, meanwhile the nextBox will transport your mind to an arcade paradise in the clouds.

They've actually got a really good, DRM-free, free-online console, the Xbone was intentionally bad so that Sony would become arrogant and try to slip in things like paid online. Soon they're going to come out with this new console that is a straight console with no gimmicks, at 299 dollars, and have a landslide victory. They're going to have a month of QA to dispel any fears. This is why the Xbone games were running on PCs, the Xbone is actually a hoax and none of them work. The real console is unseen.

I had a similar thought as this a while ago, but after E3, I really doubt it.

Just as the back from the dead outnumbered the genuinely living in Spawn for a while so too do the Sony saboteurs outnumber the genuine Microsoft employees, but like any good organization whose goal is disorganized destruction they are not centralized and unaware of their unintentional colluding.
