How about "no"?
I've been gaming for a vast majority of my life and I need to comment on what was announced today. Xbox revealed their next console, Xbox One.
*it must be online at least once every 24 hours
*games must be fully installed to the HDD, used games must be purchased at full price (no loaning titles to friends, eliminates rentals and services like Gamefly)
*500 GB HDD is not removable, external memory can be added via one of 3 USB slots
*console requires its own proprietary cable box
*Kinect is sold with system, is always on (always watching, listening!), must be used for navigation
*not compatible with Xbox 360 games, XBLA purchased titles
*almost certainly still required additional monthly fee for online use
*looks terrible, more angular and boxy than the NES
*expected to be released at the end of this year, yet no price point announced
You know what? I'm skipping the upcoming gaming generation entirely.
