still tho sucks they did this to the collector edition

It IS kind of nice that they did it this way though - because we all were quite happy with the CE as it was announced and then afterward they announce that there are a couple of extras going to XB1 pre-orders. I think it makes it easier to take considering most of people seemed pretty content with the CE as announced. If they just came right out and said "XB1 gets more stuffz!" then it might've been more upsetting -- not sure, just thinking out loud on this though.

Mr Spencer has got a job to do, keep share holders happy and get box1 in to homes. "Gamers" only did this to them selfs with the so called console wars and pc elite. There are people who work for these company's and all they do all day is read comments and report back on the best information that makes good logic in moving forward for that brand. The last nine months can test to that.

Me I have one console brand and one is enough for me. In a way I'm kind of happy that Mr BoxOne has brought real competition to the table and it is working, look how upset some have become in the past 5 days. Why I'm happy for Mr BoxOne, This has made gamers "who want everything" think real hard now because MS has changed the game. The + items with the BoxOne version is a test to what is to come and when the new TR comes out Damn! Anything is on the table for the collectors edition and this is going to hit some hard.

Sony and least can stop getting high on their own supply (10 Mill) for a minute and look at the competition because the competition is fight back good or bad they are moving forward with their brand. Take note Sony... It only takes one person to change something then others will follow.

To those who are thinking of getting a BoxOne, from now save $10 a week and you will have plenty coin and some for the new TR when it drops in 2015. Funny thing is those who swear blind they would never touch a BoxOne may just end up getting One after all.

Damn! You got to luv competition...
