You can add a USB hard drive though, so it's not like the 360 at least.

It's the exact same as it is now. People in unsupported countries finding a work around dont get the full experience. No way can MS guarantee that it works either.

Seriously.
It's not like the support guy/girl repping twitter made these awful decisions. He/She probably plans on getting a ps4 too, lol.

Has someone spiked the water cooler over at Microsoft HQ? They just keep digging themselves a bigger grave. I can't believe Mattrick essentially said to Geoff Keighley that if consumers can't connect to the internet then they should buy a 360 instead. I just... I mean WHAT?!

All hope of even considering an xbone purchase went out the window once all the DRM rumors became true. Forza 5's rushed launch and missing features like weather and night effects were icing on this shit cake.
This is just getting cruel. All this paired with the announcement that you should just get a 360 if you can't get online is so incredibly insensitive. J-GAF is pretty much out of luck even if they were curious enough to import. Microsoft why you so crazy?

With what Orth got fired over, what are the chances Mattrick will still be working at Microsoft in the coming months?

Why did they fire the poor guy? He was just speaking Microsoft.
Depends entirely on how the console does in the market.
That isn't essentially what he said, that is exactly what he said.

Come on, people. It's not Microsoft's or Mattrick's fault. XBone was designed by gamers for gamers. They should get the blame. THE GAMERS!

You can add an external, like the WiiU.
It's exactly the same except the console won't work. How are they supposed to get the 24 hour check in?

And no weather effects? Don't worry, the Cloud™ will take care of all the weather you need.
So do all these people that live in unsupported countries live on nuclear subs or something? Mattrick feels bad for you guys (for his pockets)...
This is a huge joke at this point. I never thought I'd go into GS and BB and hear people talking BADLY about MS after all the bullshit they've said in the past...lol

We are living in a movie about corporate hubris and incompetance based on MS and there's no telling when we're to be back in the real world.

Im a Halo fanboy, i love Xbox, i love that controller and i absolutely despise the ps3 controller. That being said, you will never EVER convince me that having a console that "checks in" every 24 hours in order to function is good for its users. Ever. There are absolutely NO ADVANTAGES to this for us. None.
The Cloud is another story, theres potential there with that. But having me check in or else my console is a brick? You can spin that any which way you want, and every single time im getting fucked in the ass.
MS for the first time in my life, GO FUCK YOURSELVES.

Video in the OP got taken down.
Anyone up for a relink or have alternate links?
MS is furiously employing Viacom to take down those links for damage control lol.

Sooo much freaking damage control. Xboned indeed
Actually with PS4 you don't need to even buy a game for some time, you get Drive Club Plus edition, more PSN+ games in the future. And you can play f"P games like Blacklight, Planetside 2, Doki Doki Universe, DC Universe, Warframe and etc.

How can Microsoft even take those videos down? They belong to Gametrailers, not MS.
I'd heard the rumour of MS sending a copyright dispute, but I wasn't sure it was true, wouldn't it have to have been Viacom who owns GT?
If it is indeed MS, it's interesting that they're fine with not protecting their copyrights when it comes to positive clips of their interviews/conferences.
