Reposting my last post from the previous thread:
The funny thing is now Michael Pachter is looking down right foolish(again). Back during GameTrailer's GDC-centric episodes of the Bonus Round, Pachter declared that MS was going to "win" the 8th console generation.
Gonna be hard to do that when on the very first day of the system's official existence you alienate 1/3 of your primary target consumer base while pissing off GameStop, Redbox, Gamefly, and all the mom and pop used game stores and the remaining 2/3 of your primary target consumer base.
At this rate, Xbox One will probably come in third place. Being dead serious with that too. At this rate only the Xbox fanboys can possibly justify getting the system now.

Only 3 words in on AngryJoe's video and I'm already rolling. "You...F***ing...Idiots!" That pretty much sums it up.

This is one of the most baffling, delusional directions I've seen a company take in a really long time.

It is the third console curse, I swear! Ok, not really.  But still, this is even worse than the PS3's initial reaction. At least Sony's bullshit was spread out over months as gamers and reporters slowly revealed their lies. It has literally been 5 hours since the end of the event and I don't even want to touch an Xbox One. |

This is one of the most baffling, delusional directions I've seen a company take in a really long time. Not surprising, considering it's Microsoft. This is the same company that had a highly praised operating system with Windows 7, and then completely revamped everything, crapped all over desktops and laptops, and gave us Windows 8. I'm going Sony in the next generation. |

With the mentions of "delusions," do all of Microsofts execs have schizophrenia?
First they abandon the really-popular Windows 7 for Win8, the supposed iOS killer that can't match iOS's flexibility and defend it after it's universally panned.
Then they decide that their new system is going to have to be connected to the internet every day, and create the most ass-backwards DRM strategies imaginable.
And they think they're going to WIN the console wars?
Sony hasn't had competition this weak since the Neo Geo and SEGA Saturn.

So if I'm running Gamestop, what incentive do I have to carry the Xbox One, given that I cannot profit off of used games?
