I'll say this, I'm not going to knock on the xbox one cause I'm know it'll appeal to a certain crowd. The think is it's just not the console for me. Microsoft on the other hand has just been shooting themselves in the foot lately and the recent interview with Don Mattrick were he says "no internet, get an 360" has pissed off a lot of people I know. Anyways, whether if this is true or not..its just funny how this is just making them look desperate as hell if they feel the need to do this.

Thread made. It's nothing new. Many many companies do this.

Bestbuy is having Wii U events?

I can just imagine Steve Ballmer running into stores come launch time constantly shouting "Xbox One" whilst clapping his hands. Face turned red, high blood pressure, sweating, panting, voice quivering under the stress of it all. Customers cowering behind the aisles. Kids being told not to stare at him. Middle aged men staring downwards pretending he doesn't exist. Security guards calling for FBI backup. But like a man possessed by his lord Bill Gates spirit, like a manic, street preacher, he continues to spread the word. From store to store. Across the nation.

I'm sure Wii U fans totally gave a shit.

oh how I wish this were true.
