There is no chance I will be stupid enough to buy an xbox one, the only thing microsoft can promise with it is unbridled 24 hour surveillance of your actions. After halo 4 sucked so bad and xbox would not honor my xbox live time when I could not play due to “real life obligations” When a corporation gone mad with power is making my video games they are not concentrated on making good games.
Sorry mircosoft, you stole from me, lied to me, and cheated me… I stand to make a lot of money between now and the end of this year and sony will get it…
I highly recommend any one with any sense do the same to insure a great gaming experience for the next 5-6 years DO NOT BUY MICROSOFT you will regret it
Looking back I wish I had a ps3 instead of a 360… playing halo is not worth being bullied by microsoft, the customer service is awful, it is really expensive to play online,
Microsoft is a multi-national corporation that sells information, software and hardware to every level of government, civilians, wealthy or poverished around the world, with the moral equivalent of a band of thieves stealing from its consumers, I turn away and buy sony playstation
Sorry guys you know you owe me 2 months xbox live time, and it is to late to resuscitate halo. You stole money from a life long customer, right from your target demo, male 18-35 with a disposable income… guess who all my friends are…
Goodbye and good luck.
Sorry for helping the devil that is capitalism. (?)
thanks man! quite nice of you to say…
as one of the builders of the body of the beast it sucks to see halo fall so hard, I loved what bungie did with halo…
and I would be a fool to believe microsoft will not sell me crap and call it chocolate
Wow…I am not going to try and dissuade you. Clearly you have made up your mind. But I think you might have “facts” misconstrued a bit. First off there won’t be unbridled 24/7 surveillance. You will be able to turn off your Kinect if you don’t want to use it. Although, I think there will be some games that require it so that will be up to you the games you purchase.
Are you saying that you wanted MS to pay you back for XBL time you were not able to use because of “life obligations”? Come on now, who in their right mind would expect this? We all have things that come up and we are not able to play during those times, but I do not expect them to refund me for it. This is a bit too much to hope for.
Finally you speak of MS being a big bad corporation, this is uninformed rhetoric. How about try and be a little more educated with your opinion rather than coming from a position of unsubstantiated opinion? This is one of the things that MS helps to contribute to society, and one of the reasons I like to support them. Even if I don’t like all their practices…Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Oh, and just to clarify, I will be pre-ordering an X1 and maybe even a PS4, just to broaden my gaming horizons. Have fun!

Not to mention there is only a …what? 5-10$ difference on the live service for Xbox and PS4? you thought our service was bad? Sony is worse.
No reason to announce your departure, but I wish you luck and much enjoyment.
