Xbox 720's features need to be more about design and services, says EA

Sounds like EA just wants more links to monetized content on the dashboard.
Really, all I care about is the reliability, price and content you get. I wouldn't even be satisfied with shitbox Live. Just get rid of that service. It's shite.
They just want to be able to force people to use Origin on the new Xbox, like they're planning to do on the Wii U.
lol.
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;38414058]I tried to change the theme on my xbox today and literally couldn't find it in any fucking location.
Turns out it's in the fucking [B][I]SOCIAL[/I][/B] tab, not settings, not apps not any other useless shit area that shouldn't be on the fucking console, no - SOCIAL tab.[/QUOTE]
Thanks I've been looking for weeks.
[QUOTE=ProWaffle;38413896]So it'll be a streamlined DLC acquisition machine? That's what their comments seem to be poorly masking.[/QUOTE]
EA won't stop until the machine has an actual slot where you can enter your credit card in order to unlock the next chapter of their games.
What I really crave for in my xbox is for the games to be all the way at the end where the settings are so they are out the way of my Facebook and Twitter apps
Thank lord EA knows what gaming is all about, hopefully I can get my kinect dance games to sync with facebook
only in a perfect world :\

[QUOTE=Hamsterjuice;38414719]i read a study recently that everyone who isn't on facebook is a psychopath
i can understand appealing to normal people since psychopaths are a pretty niche market[/QUOTE]
And those who have fuckloads of "friends" on facebook and is constantly posting shit for attention are most likely narcissistic persons.
Moderation and separation.
I still think it should be called the Xbox[sup]3[/sup]. Its so much nicer than Xbox 720.
[QUOTE=LegndNikko;38414273]You bought the game. You consumed a product. Therefore, you are a consumer.[/QUOTE]
Yes, but it doesn't mean they have to refer you as a consumer because you aren't only that. They could use words like audience, fans, users, gamers, etc.
A musician wouldn't call people who buy their music 'consumers' even though they are.
[QUOTE=Noss;38413849]stop calling it the 720
its retarded[/QUOTE]
playing my 4π all day erry day
To be honest, I think he's right. Yes, the hardware will be very important, but that's not enough nowadays. Think about all the features something like Steam offers. Imagine if the next-gen consoles had every game available to download on demand, and stored saved games on the cloud. Imagine if they had stuff like Workshop, and the picture sharing and the game hubs and all that. Consoles these days aren't just for playing games, they're all-in-one entertainment devices. For next-gen consoles, I believe the social/online features will be big selling points.
[QUOTE=KlaseR;38414732]but if you turned 720° you would still be facing the xbox[/QUOTE]

Xbox 720 was never an official name or even once officially mentioned.
It started as a joke first and then went on and on from idiot to idiot and ended at idiot journalists one day.
