Who are you and what did you do to Francis???

I've got a feeling that Xbox One hating is going to turn around soon and people will get sick of all the haters and start loving the new Xbox. Just you wait and see.

Francis is just an actor, he never actually gets that angry

Nail in the coffin?

Waiting for this or (a similar story) to be picked up by the mainstream press:

But, the reason that I am so infuriated about it is that I, and my brothers and sisters in arms, will not ever be able to play Xbox One when deployed or on detachment. No longer will the sounds of Master Chief saving the human race echo through the hallowed halls of the USS Abraham Lincoln, or any other USS Ship, when we have a few hours respite. No longer will you see Marcus and Dom sawing through the Locust Horde at the bases in Afghanistan after the Marines have returned from patrol and want to escape their reality for a bit.

Microsoft is letting down America's troops. That's a headline you don't want.

Maybe MS could just give users root access to the One?

OMG, how M$ could even be so stupid and suicidal, it sound like M$ wanted to go down the hill, WTF

and stil, updating the software to be offline-able, get rid of the fucking fee for 2nd hand game, and option to throw kinect out the window - it still save their asses, wtf agin ?

This is the kind of arrogance that sinks console companies (or divisions).

it's beautiful, it's not even shooting yourself in the foot, it's chopping off both your legs. i like how they just go with it and say, "YEAH THATS EXACTLY WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN".

I wonder how the xbox board of directors will feel in a year from now when they still don't have full coverage, have less sales on avg. than a Wii U and consoles start to burn out a la xbox 360... BRB buying a year's supply of popcorn

Yeah, the Army is probably the only that can lobby for some change in their policy.

Or get a "Special Army Offline Edition".

Btw they said their policy may change in the future... I think there's a large chance they are gonna step back somehow, they just cannot do that publicly a few days after they explained their strategy.

More on that approaching launch, or around the first price cut(?).

Some interesting takes from one of the Microsoft engineers (allegedly):

The point of DRM/no trading is to get the publishers more money, so why would they counter that advantage to the publishers by then lowering the price. They wouldn't. Xbox can't be compared to things like Steam, Xbox is a platform and distribution method; and therefore a monopoly, Steam isn't.

Some legit point here but I don't mind that is the best way to achieve this goal imo.
