They keep harping on the voice activation you can do that now with Kinect and you sound like a retard yelling at your TV telling it to do something.

It's obvious with the way the 360 was heading that they were going to focus this next system on being an all in one entertainment box. Hardware wise it sounds powerful enough to appeal just fine to gamers too. I just think its silly to be complaining about things we haven't even gotten our hands on yet.

Fair enough.

to be honest I am kind of out of the video game world but like to keep tabs. I just simple don't have the time to dive into games anymore.

It will be a long time coming if ever I see a Xbox 1 or a PS4.

That's how things are fixed prior to a products release. It's better the base complain now, and they adjust, than to put out the hardware without a way to change it and lose sales/reputation.

EA was told by many many groups and customers not to do a DRM online with Sim City 5. They didn't listen, the customer base responded by voting them the worst corporation in America for two years in a row. Needless to say, that CEO didn't last long after that.
