Indeed, have you heard about Titanfall!?!?!?
Do you own a PS3? It's more expensive than an Xbox 360.
All this means is that every fanboy and journalists and asshole who tried to argue in favor of these policies looks doubly foolish because they wasted that time defending something now everyone admits was a mistake including Microsoft and for what? Did they get paid for those days of pathetic defense? I hope they did.
I agree with you entirely. The fact that MS was thinking in this direction is a huge negative against them to me, it says they have no problem fucking us. So I will never have them as my first console like I did last gen, they did lose that privilege. But a price drop or two later and after I see there's no chance they'll put the DRM back on? Sure.

Listening to consumers and changing their policies because of it is considered out of touch?
I hope this is true, GiantBomb could take a huge hit in credibility if its false.
Are people so spineless that they would actually buy an Xbone if they backtrack the DRM? Way to go GAF.
This would be ridiculous, even more embarrassing than the policies themselves.
What a fucking joke MS has become. They are so out of touch.

More like the most logical and reasonable move a company can do.
Has anyone mentioned that if this turns out true TotalBiscuit looks like the world's biggest nob now lol
I'm focusing on that bit in the title that says:
RUMOR
Will remain skeptical until that changes...
Does this mean Cliffy B will also back track?
If anything it gives more incentive to keep it off PS4.
More specifically, the bad thing is kinect. It's the reason for the higher price.

Because E3 didn't work. They thought they had a line-up of games good enough for people to just get over it. Not only did they not, but Sony through several curveballs with their price point and the way they actually addressed consumer concerns.
For launch, XBO was primed to bomb. When Jimmy Fallon is asking the other guys about their used games policy, it's time to engage Panic Mode.
He's always been a nob in my book.Has anyone mentioned that if this turns out true TotalBiscuit looks like the world's biggest nob now lol
Same here. I'll firmly plant this in the I'll believe it when I see it category.
I bet Family Sharing will limited to Digital Download purchases only.

It's kind of a funny situation too: we can thank the internet's ability to spread information for making this happen so soon... yet they wouldn't even CONSIDER it if it weren't for the internet being in that state. It really is a double edged sword.This would have to go down as one of the weirdest moves in gaming history.
Most of us just didn't want this sort of thing to catch on. Microsoft's forever tainted there in my eyes because I do expect them to try to press the issue again, though it may well be Sony and MS just do the same thing (let retail erode until all digitial/internet required to get games is the expected standard), but if nothing else at least I can get an X1 for exclusives later on without worrying about the games being unplayable because of server bullshit.Are people so spineless that they would actually buy an Xbone if they backtrack the DRM?

Hah, very true.lol.... all of the sites reporting this now.... if MS doesn't do it... man does that sort of put them in an awkward position... though maybe no more awkward than if they do do it.
