Don't have internet? Don't want to deal with DRM? BUY A 360! You have got to be shitting me hahahaha I figured after the backlash from all this shit they would decide to make some changes, but M$ won't budge.
This prevents people from getting their hands on the console.
Ain't that kinda stupid?
anti-theft he means, but I don't really see the point since the other companies don't have such issues afaik :/
also apparently the entire military hates the XO now as well cause it has severe nation locking and the online requirement makes it unusable out at sea and wherever. http://www.armytimes.com/article/201306 ... e-members-

That's "look how awesome xbox one is, look at these graphics" using the best and most stable platform they can. I think its called bullshots. Just like Aliens: CM and many others.
Saw a funny quote with this earlier "even micrsoft doesn't use windows 8" lol.

I don't think this is really the case :/ You can't really blame them of lying about graphics, because with proper optimization at least for now these consoles would easily be able to display the graphics. That was the whole point of consoles from the start. Offering people a guaranteed quality by giving them the same hardware.
At least for now, with the severe limiting of graphics the old generation forced upon us these games really aren't any special graphics-wise. they are better then the old generation but the new one should be able to support this much without issue.
Just today there was a topic on kotaku that showed the ps3 launch titles, boy did that look shitty Just shows how much power devs managed to squish out of the current gen in the end. http://kotaku.com/the-ps3-had-12-games- ... -513396910
So, I think at least for now (pre-console release) it's still ok to show it off using high end PC's (the games aren't even optimized for them).

They have done this in the past. This prevents people from getting their hands on the console.
Not really. It's a sneaky thing to do this though, but it's been done before at past E3s. Microsoft has their reason and I could guess the console isn't able to use, the PC is the dev kit, or they want to show off better graphics.

There is no valid excuse to lie to your consumer base....Or give a false impression of what your product is capable of....period.... These guys are A-class ass-holes if they're not telling people at this EXPO that they're running on a PC...

They just have such shitty PR and make retarded statements, the whole "getting permission" every 24 hours to play the game, that "we have a offline console, its called the xbox 360", now the "theres a lot of education we have to provide". Just sounds dickish and arrogant :
About the PC running the games, did they explicitly state that they were running it on a Xbox One? cause then its kinda a big deal.

Yesterday I watched the Destiny footage and noticed they were using a PS4 (square for revive). Coming from the team that made games exclusive to xbox and xbox 360, I found this telling.
If you guys want to complain about the picture quality, you can make like microsoft and suck a dick.
I'm done. Peace.
Spoiler!
Validate every 24 hours? Have fun during launch week.
what does sim's city and diablo 3 have to do with it.. theyre not microsoft.
dom is simply saying that if you have to validate to connect, the odds of encountering issues connecting will occur. Live had this happened during one holiday season, but funny enough there won't even be that many xboxes connecting at once to cause such a server clog.

Besides they say they will upgrade the server twentyfold.

Agreed, Dom. I do believe the Xbox is going to struggle during launch week and even further most likely. ~40 games for a PS4 and a few bucks, not too bad.
I pre-ordered a BF4 launch day edition off of Amazon last night for $506 PS4 - $399 BF4 - $49 [comes with DLC also] PS+ - $49 Tax free, $7 shipping to my door on launch day.
My co-worker pre-ordered his X1 at GameStop with a game and 1 year of Xbox Live. Total = $682 Nearly $200 more for the same damn thing.
