I think they killed their selves with the Xbox One going over their forums I cant even find a single topic of anyone that will even consider buying the console as it is, even the die hard Xbox loyalist are like NOPE

honestly the only sales I currently think Microsoft will get for their new console is the ones from their own employees so they don't get fired

what Microsoft did was basically a bullet to the face directed at themselves and even if Microsoft changes everything some how there are still customers that are upset that they even tried this crap in the first place who wont even reconsider if Microsoft were to copy Sony instead

Well, considering they sold out of their pre order stock, Im pretty sure this assumption is wrong. Forums are usually just FULL of whiners, because the people that are happy are happy.

pre orders can and more than likely will be cancelled

Keep telling yourself that. Within 4 hours of preorder availability they sold nearly sold out. If people cancel, obviously others will take their place.

i'll buy it though i may not pay the $499

no one understood the Wii U when it was announced, companies seem to have a hard time advertising their stuff

let's just see how it works first

its not about how it works its about the restrictions that Sony doesn't have

Yes lets listen to a forum and it's opinion on something, it's not like forums are full of whining little kids screaming at each other.

Whiners go to forums and other social outlets to cry, people that like it carry on quietly because they've no reason to kick up fuss.

I wish they would give the PC love again, personally. I remember the days when I got into Zoo Tycoon and played that series for hours. It was also a game Microsoft published. Just recently got into the Age of Empires games thanks to Office Max selling old games they have an excess of. Also a great game. Seems the only thing they bring to the PC now is their flight simulator.
