Microsoft seems to be willing to learn these days... Windows 8.1 being in the works to address feedback from Windows 8 being an example.

    Other than that though, I actually think Microsoft are making some smart choices here. Except for PS4 exclusives, most games that are on PS4 will probably come to XBox anyway and since the game quality will most likely be about the same, I can understand why they decided to rather focus on the things that makes the XBox different rather than showing the same things from the PS4 launch. With their new system, while they are still attracting gamers, they are now also targeting people who would have never before bought a gaming console. Combine that with Windows 8, the UI that everybody has come to know and love (5 years from now ), and the possibilities are endless.
    Besides Skype, the apps and all the other possibilities, Microsoft could actually change the term "XBox Exclusive" to something like "MS Exclusive" or "Windows Exclusive" and make the games work on on both PC and XBox. If they don't, I'm pretty sure hackers will find a way to make XBox games work on PC.

    Anyway, I for one am quite excited for what the next year or two will bring.

    No guts, no glory, no brain, same story.
