[QUOTE="trugs26"][QUOTE="voicereason"] Microsoft wants to extort as much profit from consumers as possible Thats what it was about It has NOTHING to do with them caring or listening to feedback They are listening to the money signs of anything lol Microsoft was already willing to go that far with their anti consumer ways. Whats to stop them from trying again I WILL NEVER trust Microsoft. MANY PEOPLE will NEVER forget the way Microsoft tried to r@pe consumers....and where Microsoft onky backed off at the last minute BECAUSE WE were FIGHTING and scratching them back Sony IS like our hero wgo then came in and helped us to saftey from Microsoftvoicereason
I'm sorry to break it to you, but it is the goal of every company to make profit. How do they make profit? By satisfying consumers to the point that they're willing to spend their money on MS's products. How do consumers get heard? One way is to use or not use their money. Another way is to complain.
This is exactly what happened. Microsoft changed their strategy to satisfy consumers desires, inturn for them to spend their money.
Now it looks like you're a Sony fanboy by the way you grovel at their feet. So here's a relevant example, the Playstation Move - Â An obvious move from Sony to copy Nintendo in order to gain market share. As soon as they noticed that it wasn't selling, they pulled support for PS Move. This is Sony trying to make money, nothing more.Â
This is what companies do. Â My goodness, you sound like such a delusional Microsoft Shill You are apart of Microsoft's crysis PR team arent you? You are pathetic. The damage control wont work. You should be ashamed for selling your soul to a mega shady corp in Microsoft like that. Understand that your Microsoft shill opinions WILL never be relevant Mircosoft DID THIS for the money, like pigs chasing grease .... They stopped only because we fought back....But when Microsoft gets the chance they will be trying to f@ck consumers over again. You can bet that. The fact the PS4 dominated in pre order sales SAYS that consumers dont want Microsoft's awful product Also, Sony had a patent for the move way before Nintendo even thought up the idea of motion controls. Look it up. You dont have a clue what you are talking about Sony COPIED NO one....and Sony certainly dont copy any one as much as Microsoft copies Sony (dvd, blue ray, slim model, eye toy, PS4 share features etc) And there is the fact Sony was STILL suppurting GAMES first and formost over the move. The move was just an option for those who wanted it...and Sony still supports the move while FOCUSONG mainly on CORE games even though the move sold well You see Sony is great at that balance and always puts the core gamer first. Thats why core gamers love Sony. Unlike Microsoft WHO stopped supporting core games to FOCUS ALL on the kinect which by the way is a copy cat of the PS2 eye toy . . Yeah, next time KNOW what you are talking before blindly spouting off like the paid Microsoft shill bot you are

I'll make this concise:
Reading between all of your assumptions about me being some kind of Microsoft drone, these are the points you made:
1. Microsoft did this for money.
2. They stopped because consumers didn't like what they were doing.
3. PS4 had more preorders, suggesting again, that consumers didn't like what Microsoft were doing.
4. Move was an idea by Sony.
5. Sony copied no one.
6. Move support still there.
7. Something about sucking Sony's something or other.
8. Microsoft stopped supporting core games.
My response:
1. Obviously. Meet consumer demands -> ??? -> PROFIT!
2. Again, obviously.
3. Again, obviously.
Regarding these three points, and as you put it, they stopped "because we fought back", ie they listened to consumers. Would you rather them not listen? Continue to do things that consumers don't want? They did what people asked for, and yet here you are trying to spin it into something negative. This is called fanboyism.
4. Not my point, my point is they implemented an idea after years of success from another company, attempting to emulate this success. In other words, and if I didn't make this clear enough for you, THEY WANT MONEY.
5. Everyone copies everyone. Don't be such a fool. Accept this fact and move on. As the saying goes, "standing on the shoulders of giants". Saying otherwise just makes you look like a fanboy.
6. It's really low, and it would be really high if the move was successful. This is the point. If people don't pay, they don't support. Just like Microsoft changing their strategy, no one was paying. In the end, they want money, and to do this, it comes down to the consumer.
7. Okay...
8. What is your point? Do you want to have "Core Gamer" as your title or something? To show how you play core games that somehow matter more than other games?
