Basically instead of making a gaming console they decided to make a entertainment center and put it in a box... No backwards comparability which leaves Just about every single game, including the Halo games which are the reason Xbox became so popular, in the dark (unless they actually want to spend the money to redevelop the games)... Why??? For the same exact game delivery that Steam gives... Those Xbox One games you buy will gather dust on the shelf because you will never have to take them down because it "installs" them and you can re-download them from the cloud cause the purchase is stored on your Microsoft Account... You can watch TV on it (you can do that on a PC as well)... The thing has all the basic Hardware of a PC such as a 500GB hard drive, wireless, 8 core processor, dare I say sound card... The way that the Xbox One sounds... it's a PC with an OS called Xbox... I might as well take my Tower out of my room and hook it up the TV in the living room... Hell my Laptop even... I see no real big improvements, just a lot of new ways to take your money... They will put extra charges on some of these services like TV for instance... They do it with Live... they do it with Xbox Music... they WILL do it for Xbox TV or whatever they end up calling it...
