Why you shouldn't hate XB1:

[IPunchWithMyFists]

I can't hate it at this point. Sure it's too expensive, sure we don't need a new console generation and it's unnecessary, sure there's no possible reason for them to absolutely need to cut out backwards compatibility altogether, sure the Kinect sucks, sure the possibilities for invasion of privacy is ludicrous to the point of insanity, sure Microsoft is on record as one of the most anti-consumer brands out there and sure I could get better specs on a PS4 or hell even a fucking PC...

But it's a console like any console so I don't hate it.

But I will say this.

You are a Microsoft shrill and much like them, completely ignorant of what people want. If you want a good example of a good way of marketing and product development look at the Chromecast.
1. The DRM policy of making everything digital is nice but isn't what people want or need out of a console. The online checkin was a giant middle finger to our armed forces.
2. No one is excited because the mods are going to go through some sort of microsoft QA making them watered down and worthless.
3.NO ONE outside the stupid see the Kinect as anything other then a worthless black box that watches you all the time. Have you forgotten the terrible sales that the Kinect had?
4. No one really cares about the cloud but tech nerds and business buzz word users.

Hey the other 'I'm totally not a fanboy/paid off by MS to create this positive thread about a terrible console' came back up!

One of the posters came up with quite the analogy for the next gen of consoles.

These game companies are like hookers. Follow me on this... I'm trying to make a point.

(Also, this is from a straight male's perspective)

Wii U is the same hooker that you've been going to since the '80s. Every so often she does something new, but you know what you get with her. If you want her to do what her older sisters would do, she's compatible and will do them gladly. Unfortunately, she's riding off the fame of her sisters right now and doesn't do a whole lot of original things yet.

PS4 is the hooker that everybody loves. Her focus is on one thing and one things only: sex. Yeah, she does other stuff too, but sex is what she's known for. Yeah she has some issues, like any other broad that you see on the street, but she's no worse than her older sister, PS3. Granted, she simply won't do what her sisters do at all, but she has a lot of new tricks up her sleeve.

But the Xbone... she was a hooker with a penis... and she didn't want to be on bottom. All she wanted to do was fuck you in the ass, and she expected you to like it. In fact, she expected you to thank her for it. You see, most straight men don't like being fucked in the ass. In response to this, nobody wanted to buy her. They'd rather buy her rival PS4. So she got an operation. Now that she no longer has a penis, she expects you to forget that she wanted to fuck you in the ass. Some people are okay with her now, and would gladly sleep with her, but many other people still remember that that she had a dick and will never unsee it.

I hope that clears things up. Your actions have consequences, and your words have weight. You can't get me to unhear what you have to say nor forget what you did. Don't fuck with the consumer.

That is the best thing I have ever read I know you are not the original poster but if you could give props to the poster that would mean alot my internet is playing up at the mo.

Oh yes. How dare people form different opinions to yours. They should definitely not be allowed to do that at all.
