and this was the moment the XBOX One lost me with another example of Microsoft's Strategy, straight from the XBOX Team Chief Don Mattrick

MATTRICK: "Some of the advantages that you get, of having, a box that is designed to use an online state, so, that, uh, to me is the future-proof choice, and I think people, could've arguably gone the other way if we didn't do it and fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity, it's called Xbox 360."
KEIGHLEY: "Right, so stick with 360, that's your message if you don't [inaudible] like it?"
MATTRICK: "Well, if you have zero access to the internet, that is an offline device, I mean, seriously, when I read the blogs, and thought about who's really the most impacted, there was a person who said 'hey, I'm on a nuclear sub,' and I don't even know what it means to be on a nuclear sub but I've gotta imagine it's not easy to get an internet connection."
KEIGHLEY: "[inaudible] playing call of duty multiplayer"
MATTRICK: "Hey, I can empathize, if I was on a nuclear sub, I'd be disappointed."
SONY: we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity, it's called PLAYSTATION 4
