Xbox One
akumaizer:
This thread has been a great read, and I agree with what what many of you are saying. I also have no plans on buying this at all. However, I wonder if many being so sure that it will fail is because we are all like minded and agreeing with each other and reading websites that are also of like mind, but are in the minority. Hardly any kind of full evidence, but I work in a big IT office with a lot of average "non-video game nerdy" thirty-something dudes who all own 360s. Every time I have brought this up, every single person I talk to says, "well of course I plan on buying the new one" and when I bring up the concerns that have been beaten to death by the likes of us it is met with confusion. They don't care. I'd like to see this system fail but I don't know if it will and I'm curious to see how it all plays out.

Well this sums up the Xbox One for me. HAHA ;D

Apparently region locked too ... Not looking too good and I can't see them securing any exclusives that I'll need to play.
I only bought a 360 because of the Mistwalker games (Blue Dragon / Lost Odyssey) initially and I can't see something like this happening with xbox one. JRPG exclusives will be for the PS4.

Companies like Microsoft have enough money to toss at lawyers and lobbyist to gain the favor they want. Only in America can you buy something, own it, and still not have the right to do what you want with it.

I would have to agree with you, except the fact it's been going on a lot longer than a few years now.

The system isn't even out yet, and it already bores me.
