The Xbox One Controller :

Notes (confirmed):
- The Xbox One will not require an always-on internet connection

sadly, it will require an online connection at least once every 24 hours.

Sorry MS, but I'm still going for PS4. Nothing convinced me to sell my soul to you. Some of the features aren't even applicable (Live TV etc). I doubt kung kaya sa atong internet. Anyway, I still commend them for the snap thing. A good feature tho. But PS4 has it.

Here's a thing I found (warning PG-13):

it's hilarious how their own PR staff had conflicting statements. Microsoft is the last one of the three platform manufacturers to present their new console, yet the unveiling was very underwhelming.

- online is required at least once every 24 hours

yeah it does but it doesn't say anything about affecting single player experience.
kotaku edited their article "There have been reports of a specific time period — those were discussions of potential scenarios, but we have not confirmed any details today, nor will we be."
in other words-- they don't know
Given the backlash over Simcity and that Microsoft PR who got fired, Microsoft wouldn't screw themselves by requiring online play. There is a way to play offline. There has to be.

no backwards compatibility

this is not a choice here. it's pretty much not possible. backwards compatibility is a feature on hardware matching
x86 cpus are incompatible with powerpc executables. Emulation has too many issues with compatibility and speed for it to be viable. Adding a chip from the 360 would bump its price too high for it to be competitive.

I'm thinking about getting an Xbox 360 again. Originally I planned on getting one since Last February pero wala man koi nakit-an nga swak akong budget. And for some "miraculous" instance, my friend who left for the US sold his PS3 Slim unit to me at the right price--THE RIGHT PRICE. Unit lang hinoun so yeah I'm purchase games for it. It CAN be jailbroken but I decided not to since I liked the idea of collecting PS3 discs. Plus, I don't like screwing this up since I got it uber cheap

What made me think about getting a 360 again is because the stuff I read about Xbox One. I'm not saying it sucks or anything coz I'm still not sure about its games and performance and other features. Right now, I believe it's all hearsay not only about the Xbox One but also the PS4, as well. That's why they only got teasers. . .just to "tease" the consumer. Both have amazing capabilities but in the end--it'll be about it's game library that matters. But if sh*t does hit the fan on the upcoming E3 for MS, then getting a 360 at this point seems perfect for me. It'll be the first and only MS console I'll add in my archive of game consoles. I'm not getting one yet, I'm just waiting for it to come naturally to me

I agree. a gaming console shud have been focused on improving gameplay not multimedia and such as people is buying xbox for gaming purposes
