I am getting the feeling you guys think I'm directing my issues at you. I'm not, the main people I am ****ed about are the ones that go on Facebook, twitter, wherever and say things like "haha Xbox DONE has DRM lol it is **** #PS4" There are tons and tons of people saying things like that, if not even stupider, every single day and I'm tired of it.
People that probably have no idea what they're even saying, yet they blindly just bash Microsoft because everyone is. Yuck.
I've posted a few myself, and have laughed at a lot, but it doesn't automatically make me (or anyone else for that matter) a "fanboy".  You throw the term out too loosely and look silly by doing so. Just stop it and try, TRY to understand/empathize with what others are saying.

Nothing I am saying is directed at anybody on this site ((((((Do I need to make this bold?)))))), because I know none of you are silly enough to blindly hate on things. You all have legitimate reasons, and you're presenting them like you know what you're talking about - which you do. That's cool. I don't want to talk about how good the Xbox is because I don't care. I am trying to remain neutral and just avoid talking about it, really. There's just too much negativity and it bothers me. That applies to many things. I honestly have absolutely zero intention in trying to convince you about anything I'm saying, I'm just expressing how I feel.  Tongue I am a very upbeat and silly person, and by no means want to come off as arrogant or "shallow".

Everything I said that I actually meant/cared about can be summed up like this: I see too much knee-jerk negativity to something we don't know everything about.

The whole attraction to negativity I see in so many people is another issue I don't like thinking about, because it makes me feel negative as well, but that's off topic.

When I said they were being quiet/behind-the-scenes about everything, I mean they weren't directly speaking about it in public. (The reveal/E3 conference). Everything was leaked out afterwards by talking to journalists behind-the-scenes.

Edit: just saw the last couple posts. @Kreater, I have posted tons of PS4 gifs and stuff to skype and Facebook, they're quite entertaining. I am not calling you a fanboy. You understand all of this. It's just the people that you can tell aren't very knowledgeable about the games industry, yet bash it because everyone does. There's a huge difference.

No, you didn't because I knew this already. Most of the stuff in this discussion is an opinion. It's just multiple opinions battling it out.

Keep in mind that I didn't read the post I quoted yet.

"Microsoft Reversing Xbox One Internet, Used Game Policies?"

"anonymous sources now tell Giant Bomb that Xbox One will no longer require an internet connection or need to check in every 24 hours"


So yeah, that would be nice and everything, but I'll wait until it's an official announcement.

I have a feeling it'll be true, everyone is freaking out and it's kind of hard to miss.

"It's official: Microsoft reverses all DRM/always-online policies on Xbox One. Details on @IGN momentarily."

Mnoply's hair YES

I never understood this point of view either. The most important thing to me when I play a game is winning. I can go 10-20 and still feel accomplished if I contributed in a meaningful way to the teams win. The challenge of winning is what makes a game fun for me. I also believe having to unlock everything is dumb. Give me all the weapons and attachments now and let me find the best suited tool for the specific moment. I want to find something that will help me win.

The most important part for me is not winning but the excitement of trying to win. I don't really mind if I lose.

But I agree with you about unlocks in competitive games. It's dumb.

Good for them.  And good for everyone who voiced their opinions on this, because without them doing so Microsoft would have thought it was okay.
