When your console is already a complete laughing stock in the eyes of all but a select few yanks, the absolute last fucking thing you should be doing is pulling support from people who aren't them. Isn't that more or less what caused their Japanese market to be virtually unsalvageable to begin with? Do they want that to happen to Europe, too?

I'm just laughing about this because they cite one of the delays in Europe being needing more time to work on Kinect voice control... and yet, it's still coming out day one here, despite Australia not having the original Kinect's voice control feature for nearly half a fucking year.

I dunno, seems kinda hilarious. I guess Microsoft's already worked out Australia's varying accents or whatever. The cross-gen Season Pass seems interesting, though. But the way it's worded seems to mean that once you transfer the pass to the One, if you still want to use it on the 360, you'll have to buy it again.

Microsoft's cancelling their press conference AGAIN. They're not even allowing live-streaming of the event - they're instead releasing their own heavily-edited version afterwards, presumably because they still haven't figured out how to make the Panzer Dragoon trailer run with the sound turned on in realtime.

Kinect is essential to Xbox One, says Microsoft tools, after they backtracked some time ago and said that Kinect won't be mandatory and will only ship with Day One Editions.

Also mentioned is what we all suspected from the start. Microsft fully intends to eventually make Xbox One operate the way they wanted from the beginning, after it's adopted by half the fucking planet.

And Microtransactions will be in Ryse: Son of Rome. Obviously. And knowing Microsoft, the purchased armour will only be available for one stage, like the purchasable weapons in Halo: Spartan Assault.

The stupid hurts.

Seeing as Ryse was already a grey/brown mess almost exclusively consisting of QTEs, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest that it also turned out to be a money-grubbing piece of shit. Literally the only way you could design Ryse any more pessimistically than it's gotten so far is to replace the soundtrack with dubstep.

Oh yeah, and Microsoft waiting until after they already have the consumer's money to rip them off. Totally fucking called it. Only thing that surprises me there was that it wasn't in their original plans. Though if there's one good thing that comes out of Microsoft planning to make it a DRMbox only after they'd conned consumers into buying it, it's that they were fucking retarded enough to say they would before anyone actually had a chance to spend money on it, or before it was too late to cancel preorders.

You're not the only one. I think that most of us on this board thought they would pull that stupid shit, and bam.
