Oh one more thing since I finished reading the article after posting. :P
"So the answer to Microsoft’s problems with the Xbox One? Simple. Stop listening to the public and put everything back the way it was when it was announced a year ago. Then, and only then, will the console be the best of its generation."
He says this because all the changes he's making is alienating most of the early adopters who were "forced" to buy it bundled with Kinect?
1. If they feel they were "forced" to buy it, it probably means they've definitely noticed there was NO use for it to begin with and they find it a waste of money.
2. Putting things back to how it was ANNOUNCED a year ago would annoy a good segment of the early adopters even more - since most of those didn't buy a Xbone until after the first round of changes were made. It was only those drunk on the microsoft juice that loved and defended the original Xbone plans. The rest of us cancelled our initial preorders until some changes were made. And it was because of those cancellations that changes -were- made.
