Microsoft doubles down on Xbox One policies

After Microsoft revealed the Xbox One for the first time last month, the internet swelled with rage. There was information floating around that this console was going to be anti-consumer. The word was that you’d need an internet connection. Used games would be a pain in the ass or maybe even impossible. Kinect was always monitoring you. None of the words were good though.

Microsoft was not pleased. Don Mattrick had just smiled his ass off for an hour on stage, dozens of Microsoft employees had clapped through the entire presentation, Steven friggin’ Spielberg just announced that Halo: The TV Drama would be on the Xbox One- and people were upset?! It was a PR nightmare.
