In reply to Doggystyle ✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ. "Was it the right thing to do?" Do what the consumer likes more and thats what Microsoft did. Oh they could have stick to their guns and see if their vision worked out or not but that's something they couldn't wait for. Doing a reversal is not bad at all it just means you f*cked up and want to fix things.

In reply to Doggystyle ✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ. Buying used games from stores like GameStop is bad for the gaming industry. They pay you maybe $20 cash for a month old game, $27 if you take in store credit, and then they flip and sell your game for $55, because it's still rather new. None of that profit goes back to the developers or publishers. If you really want to support the development of games, don't buy used. I buy all my games digitally anyways, so it wouldn't have affected me.

In reply to Doggystyle ✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ. I don't know what you are complaining about. It's good the original Xbox One is being discontinued. The Xbox One S and Xbox One X will be the ones taking its place which is also their best course of action and as we have seen it is helping them more than if they had only kept the original Xbox One. That's why people are buying their consoles.

Xbox haters: the X wont’ actually play well
*X proceeds to wow developers, who sing its praises*

Xbox haters: the X won’t actually sell well
*X outsells PS4 Pro on Amazon, fastest presale of any Xbox to date*

Xbox haters: the X won’t do well in the long run

In reply to 19davey81. Was it the right thing to do? You market the console as one thing and then do a total reversal on everything. That's just as bad as forcing those stupid avatars on grown adults who bought an Xbox 360 as a gaming system. You don't get to change the whole game after people have already given you their investment like that. You guys are consumer wimps.

In reply to Henri Le Rennet. They wanted to dictate the future of console gaming. Period. They also wanted to end the sale of used games. The Xbox brand and its community can kiss my a ss.
