Wow, pathetic. Words cannot describe...
Microsoft just keeps on shooting themselves in the foot, why did they even bother? I think it's possible for Nintendo to sue them; they're intruding on an event that Nintendo organized. But will they? Probably not.

I wanna go there just to mess with them, just be like, oh yeah well my dad is one of the directors at Rockstar or Bethesda or something like that and say that their not gonna support the console because of Always Online. Watch them go back to MS saying "OH NO!!!"
But seriously, F off Microsoft...it rhymes, so It must be true

I feel compelled to go back to Best Buy on Saturday for the event. Just to tell any possible Microsoft employees "I don't need a cable box that's always connected online with a Kinect that spies on me and won't allow me to play used games". Microsoft is so desperate that it's funny.

I'm pretty sure the employees don't want to do this, but it's their job. If I see one on Saturday, I'm tempted to own him with things like high price point, used games, DRM, the fact that once the service ends it will become a paperweight, one of their exclusives is ruined by being free to play, one being a quick-time event, and one being just like Little Big Planet 2.

This could be fake... so don't get too worked up about it. I have someone telling me that it would be illegal for them to slander at their event.

Guerrilla warfare phase two.
Phase one was trolling the entire Internet with dissent and misinformation.
Ms is a seriously douchey company.

It's not slander. It's a "legit question." Lol

The gaming family? Is pop part of the music family? lol I think it's exactly why they deserve to leave the gaming industry. But you'll see, after they experience a failure, they'll jump to the conclusion they can't make money with consoles and will leave all by themselves.
Rage, sorry...

Ya it is. They are calling Nintendo bad. I say its fake tho, BC why would microsoft need to do this to sell consoles? It would just make them look bad and the CEO of Microsoft isn't that stupid.
