I am rathered pissed about this, but unless you give two shits about the Next-gen consoles (ie. Xbox 360, PS3) Read this:

Until Next.

360, Assumed: Everyone thought Degrees - Actual: Number of Initial Bugs
Well it has been one hell of a roller coaster for Gamers and Microsoft alike as the release of the new xbox on November. 22 occurred. Many were eager to acquire their pre-orders and when they arrived home and started their machine they were met with errors. Yes, Xbox consoles everywhere are freezing, glitching and bugging to the melody of smashed controls and scratched disks. Microsoft has been called on by gamers for help, but I must ask "what the fuck happened?"
I until today was going to get a console, but until the things are fixed I'm not touching one. Xbox was so gun-ho about being ahead of the curve, both their other competitors were almost a year away from release. Xbox 360 came out with a supposed corner on the market, gamers are impulsive buyers. Face it gamers are almost categorically addicts and 360 would be the first console to satisfy their need.
Unfortunately the delayed release of the Revolution and PS3 may be well justified. Thinking about this on a market stand point, nintendo and Sony allowed Microsoft to rush their console in and basically Microsoft acted as a free test run of a Next Gen console release. By watching and seeing what issues develop in public hands Sony and Nintendo can therefore further improve their consoles. I can almost assure you that both the Revolution and PS3 will be free of the problems tha plgue the Xbox 360.
Here is a metaphor to sum it up, Microsoft is the idiot that goes running into the jungle and falls into the quicksand. Meanwhile, Sony and Nintendo are the two following Microsoft letting them expose all the hazards and traps.
