I agree with him that it was Sony that triggered something at MS, followed by a lower than expected pre-order numbers. MS didn't give a $hit about gamers,if they did they would have change plans 2 months ago after Orth debacle.
I have never seen a company scrapping their vision with a product like MS with X1. Total clusterfuck of a console!
Its funny seeing MS in total panic mode!
I hate Conan, not funny at all like most late night show hosts.
The crazy part is PS4 launch edition sold out in 2 hours! and still unavailable.
Money is what caused MS to change their policies.
He hates MS with passion. it can't be for nothing.
Wow.. malokevi
I can't believe you said " Your an asset to your species"
pretty strong words there. I know we both are passionate about gaming but no matter how fanboy I sound sometimes or how defensive toward certain company other times. I wouldn't allow myself to insult a certain gamer with such words, I might hate on MS, I might mock Nintendo, but personally attacking someone else is something I wouldn't do, ever.

"When I buy videogames, I have one expectation: that I can play them as much as I want."
Your statement tells me that you don't actually understand MS DRM, because it actually contradict your statement. let me explain
You NEED internet connection in order to play X1 games, no interent means no access to the console whatsoever.
You might trust your internet provider, but do you trust MS servers?
...
still less powerful and more expensive, so NO.
Let a good thing happen?!
WOW....OK give me your car, your home and your console and games . you seem like someone who doesn't want to own anything!
it's not about digital only, its about constant internet plus limited ownership and sharing of your own games.
You should be happy they reversed this disaster.
I believe their pre-order numbers were way below expectation, they wouldn't change a thing if X1 pre-orders were high enough.
True, but I think they will think 100000 times before committing any anti-consumer decision in the future.
Thank god they changed that because there is some people who already bend over and were ready to accept anything MS offers.
I want to see the apologists who defended this disaster!
I think pre-orders numbers that actually put a pressure on MS, they don't give a $hit about consumers! I couldn't believe people who kept defending this DRM BS.
Now its a level play field, next gen just got interesting!
what about the cloud BS. Lol
Xbox 180
PS3 outsold 360, PS4 will annihilate X1. easy
log in with a US/EU/JP account, problem solved because PS4 is region free.
I think it was interview with Major Nelson, when asked about the military issue for X1. check the full interview.

Get a grip Jaffe, take a side and be clear. one day you support MS drm, then you still support scrapping it?.
seems like he is in bed with MS.
