top article about why the x-bone is what it is


looks like the whole plan was to get us gamers to put a device in all the homes then as soon as we have, fuck us off and forget gaming

This article is from well before the x-bone was announced and how true it proved to be.

First web article I have seen in 20 years where the first few comments were also spot on
Must have been the trolls day out

Yeah interesting but sounds like sour grapes to me.

He left M$ in 2000, 13 years ago, so before even 360 was released.............

The whole indie thing sounds important yet we keep getting great games on XBLA and indie games.

Maybe M$ are just setting the bar abit higher??

I mean anyone who looked at iOS or android would see its full of 90% shitty games, where XBLA is quite a high calibre

I agree with Kent
Android and iOs games are mostly shit
Only quality makes it to XBLA
It was very clever to describe the 360 as "a trojan horse" though, I can see his point.
