Microsoft used to be big.

Now I think they're just trying to hard (to get our goat).

More news.... Apparently it won't support Blue Tooth either. It's confirmed to IGN by a Microsoft representative.

Devs express disappointment in the Xbox One

Microsoft expects 1 billion Xbox One sells
^ That is just ridiculous! He expects 400 million to upwards of 1 billion. Yeah friggen right!! The best selling console of all time only sold 155 million. They are being more cocky than Sony with the launch of the PS3.

This console is just getting worse and worse, I honestly can't think of anyone that I know who is going to buy this hunk of metal. Everywhere I go no one likes it, I don't like it either. Yep i'm going to attempt to save up for a Wii-U, I don't see why Microsoft thinks this is going to sell well... :V Wishful thinking guys, someone on a different Sonic forum I frequent said that it's even worse than the Panasonic 3DO...

Nothing good came of the Kinect.
Ah, what about Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor! You could slap someone in the face. Revolutionary.

...TV achievements? What the...I'm sorry, but that's ridiculous.

"Congratulations! Unlocked acheivement: Couch Potato!"

I mean, my comment above is sarcastic, but...if I have a game console, it's so I can play games. I have a television set so I can watch TV.

I just...what?

If they're trying to revolutionize the gaming industry in some way, it's not working. At all.

And yet more bad news.
Turns out the voice activation may not have been voice activated.
Course Microsoft isn't going to confirm this but the video does support this theory.

I dunno, a gif just a little down shows him with his hands out of his pockets while voice commanding.

I'd think that they'd have someone off stage handing commands if they were doing it though. Having the guy on stage do it would be too obvious.

What bothers me more are the people in the comments defending it like it's the best thing ever. Oh dear.

Agh. I really wish Microsft simply said something like "Stay tuned for more info!" instead of saying stuff and confusing many by not elaborating, making it sound like they're not one-hundred percent sure of what they're doing themselves. For all we know, Sony could be doing some of the stuff, only they're deciding to keep it hush-hush and observe.

Eh, I don't really mind that they weren't doing the actual thing, still working on the details. But again... if it's true, it supports what I said they're still working out everything.

Honestly at this point I don't think it would help any. They've pretty much shot themselves in the face. And there's no recovering from that.

Oh well. Guess I'll play my Wii U and just use the TV for watching TV~

Man, and we thought the always online rumors were bad.

The always online isn't a rumour. It's pretty much confirmed.

Though it's less about being online all the time and more about needing to have a connection for it to connect to every day.

Looks like Microsoft is digging their own grave! Good job. I applaud them.

I love to see Xbox fanboys go all batshit over this. PS3 HAS NO GAMES? Well guess what, XBOX ONE HAS NO GAMES. (Unless you count Kinect, I guess. Hahaha.)
