True, but the biggest reason customer were pissed at Microsoft with the Xbox was the whole ordeal with the Kinect and required online 100% of the time at launch of the One. MS actually listened to customers and walked those choices back. You don't see that walk back to these anti-consumer choices that companies make often enough anymore.

Well, they ditched the idiot running Xbox and brought in someone who actually understands what gamers want. That was a huge move

Shame it already had the damage though. Stupid $100 Kinect tax was just brutal
