See? Now aren't we all glad that we have a government that protected the consumers by stepping in and--oh, wait...

As much as this sounds nice, that's not the ONLY issue with Microsoft. The Xbox One is still going to have all the spy features and still require online once every 24 hours.

Also, while I'm going to wait and see what actually happens, I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft goes back to the used game restrictions once people start buying the console.

Perhaps, but Microsoft has to realize that, the times, they are a-changing. They no longer rule the roost. Apple and Linux have limited the influence they have on the desktop and the laptop, Apple and Google are creaming them on smart devices, and Sony at least has proven they're not afraid to go head-to-head with them on gaming consoles (where was Nintendo during all this?). They can't just impose their will on users and expect them to accept it the way they have in the past.

Nintendo are off doing their own thing. Nintendo, for some reason or another, couldn't care less about Sony or Microsoft. They probably figure they'll make a ton of money no matter what, which is honestly true at this point.

As far as Microsoft goes, it took them a long time to finally say, "We're listening to you." Hell, when people were complaining about this before, their response came down to "Deal with it" or "Stick with the Xbox 360 then."

an Arab on some people's way of thinking (making fun of them specifically):

الفحل اللي بالفيديو مفكر الزلومية بكثرة الخلفة ،، كل ليلة بقول: افتحي رجليكي يا مره ،، ويجيك يحكيلك ما معي اصرف عليهم ولا اربيهم ودخيلكم ساعدوني !! ومرتو الأرنبة مبسوطة عطوول بتفتحلو رجليها !! عالم أرانب

translation:

the stallion in the video associates manhood with the number of children....every night he says: "open your legs woman...and I will come to you and tell you I have nothing to spend on them nor to raise them and your agent helps me!! and of course he wife the rabbit is automatically happy to celebrate with her legs! (truly) a world of Rabbits![/quotes]
