You say you won't buy it. Maybe not, I bet you will eventually. I've not bought the PS now because hate SONY. I don't need a game console. ONE is closer to what I want but still no Virtual Reality headset. WTF is really the use of a console system without VR immersive gaming?
Anyway it's obviously a home entertainment appliance and needs to be thought of like that. One step closer to Star Trek like controls.
Game licensing: MS is not responsible for GameStop's business model. If I was Gamestop I would be kissing butt to be the ONLY resale place for those games. That way they can build in the MS resale fee and go on my way happily.
Does MS have the right to ask for a resale fee? They have the right to ask for a tissue sample and you have the right to not do business with them. And before you cry foul, it's a freaking game console! you don't need game consoles, it's a luxury! You're pissing into the wind when you complain about it.
The most amusing thing I've seen come out of this is the the most unambitious people who's highest accomplishment in life is a well stocked 360 and a pizza delivery job declaring they won't buy it. So I say, who cares?
It makes the world better for us buy it or not. It raises the bar. You think game companies can afford to sell a looser when most people are facing the 60.00 up front cost (assume little after market) and get bad reviews and flop? You think MS w ill tolerate a game company that flops on their new baby?
The Xbox vs PS war benefits us all. IT makes them make better stuff. Like Android Vs IOS.
I just hope we get VR headsets someday. It's about time.

It is a luxury although, but people will always want to pinch the pennies, especially as a console ages.
As for VR, I know there at least is one company that is out there creating the next VR build that translates movements into keystrokes. Can't recall the name, but know there is a kickstarter for it.
