i don't want a steambox, and stop basing all your arguments on conjecture. M$ just tried to fukk their gamers over big time and you think they would have given you games cheaper? what's M$ excuse for still having 60 dollar games that are years old in their market place then? why didn't they come out and say "with this new model, there will be 40 dollar games and DLC will be free :blessed:"


if y'all want a steam based model, play steam. i prefer to own my games and have the ability to borrow and sell them.

Then the Xbox One wouldn't have been for you. :manny:

They or Sony can't make their downloadable games cheaper because GameStop won't let them. Gamers have aligned themselves with GameStop so console manufactures can't afford to piss them off by lowering digital prices.

With GameStop out of the picture publishers could charge as much or as little as they want. And due to basic ecomics prices would naturally come down. But gamers have spoken, they like the status quo that they've been bytching about for years now.

miss with "basic economics", their main complaint is it cost too much to create and market AAA titles. what incentive would they have on lowering games if they already had us purchasing 60 dollar titles digitally. why does XBL still sell games at retail that are several years old?

if M$ came out @ e3 and said our games will be 40 dollars out the gate, then you'd be saying something. but this whole "well maybe down the line, prices could drop, its basic economics" talk is bullshyt. M$ would sooner raise games another 10 bucks before they drop them.

They would get ALL the profit from game sales instead of sharing the profits with GameStop. It's the same reason games are cheaper on steam.

because their "retail partners" wouldn't allow it. Microsoft doesn't make any money off game sales it's the publishers that stand to gain/loose with game pricing, drm, used games, etc

They couldn't say that because things aren't worked out yet. It too k steam a couple years to start having deep discounts like they do.

What Microsoft did say is that the new model would allow publishers to explore different pricing structures. If people actually paid attention instead of raging against shyt they didn't even understand then maybe they would have caught that part of the conversation.

So you can do everything with the eye that can be done with Kinect :child please:

what made your experience with 2k13 so great with kinect?? Voice command and motion sensor right??

the ps4 eye does all this too:myman:

the difference is that those who dont give a shyt about this feature aren't forced to pay for it purchasing ps4
