I'm merely only stating "I" don't see the point in all the fighting and flaming over their choices is all. I as one I'm sure of many was not threatened nor bothered by their policies.

They spoke of a sharing system. From my understanding you would be able to play your games on a number of systems. Something akin to the way you can authorize your iTunes library on up to 5 computers while also sharing games and content with up to 10 family members on your own console.

I just don't understand the point of bitching about something that's so trivial anyway. I haven't loaned games to a friend since the original Xbox. Perhaps it's the fact that within days of a launch my friends and I often buy the same games. My friends and I literally have no objection to hauling our tv's and consoles to one another's houses. I've literally done that with every Halo release.

I also think that people forget that we are a connected society. A generation that can hardly go 24 hours without checking their Facebooks, their email, or even the sites they use daily. My Xbox has literally been contact to the Internet for almost 8 years, say a few power outages.

Personally I felt like I saw the benefits over way the restrictions. I liked the idea of sharing your content with your family and friends. The always online would have made cloud and game interactions something interesting. And possibly give the overall experience a bit more kick.

At least they kept the kinect, which I'm happy about. PlayStation's camera will just be an after thought item. While third-party games may look and run the same on both consoles, the always connected kinect will add possibly new gameplay mechanics that will be universal for everyone on that machine.

There's nothing exciting about the upcoming console gen anymore. We might as well call this current gen 2.0 honestly.

@connerthekewlkid: You won't see me using an Xbone anytime soon, that's for sure. I'm already sick of MS' ads and "content promotion" whenever I turn on my 360. If I pay for a service, I don't want to see ads. Period.

Sony may have some advertising, true, but I doubt they'll go as far with it as MS does.

I honestly don't have any issues with the limited advertising I see on the marketplace. I mean it could be worse. I mean hell, most of it's actually worth a look in my opinion.

@demoskinos: Place sucks. Fuck the ivory tower I'd rather be down in the shit with you motherfuckers.

This comment is exactly why joined GB tonight. I used to have a NeoGAF account threw my job e-mail, however now that I no longer work there several years later and can't remember my password, it would seem I'm not going back anytime soon.
