See I love my 360, but don't own a PS3, and had a PS1 and PS2 which I loved. I just go where the best console is. The only reason I got a 360 was it was cheaper at the time, and had Fable and Halo series which are a couple exclusives I enjoy... but not worth having someone peep on my personal live in my house. No thanks Microsoft!

Microsoft is already backpedaling on numerous things stated during the reveal. The twitter account is actively defending all the shit I talked about and saying it was mistaken. But those were the VP and senior management talking at the reveal. Who do I believe more, them, or some twitter PR accounts... yeah. I'll go with what the higher-ups are saying until they state otherwise.

I became a 100% PC gamer years ago. I owned a 360, a PS3, and a Wi each of which bit the dust over time. Before the P3 died it spent it's last two years as a dedicated Netflix box. I hate having all the physical media around, I hate shitty console DRM and the inflexibility of their console interfaces for non game content.

It's a more expensive to get a decent gaming computer, but a decent gaming computer is upgradable and more powerful and flexible than consoles. Many of my favorite games have lots of free mods (free content!) that you can't find on their console equivalents. I love steam and GoG's, takes less time and effort to manage my collection via their services and I never scratch or lose a disk.
