Let me just say that Andrew Bridgman is an absolute genius for posting this. He has, in one article, summarized everything I, and the rest of those understanding, respecting gaming civilians, felt after Microsoft’s Xbox One update announcement earlier today.

Thank you, internet, for bashing the Xbox One before even giving it a try. Thank you, internet, for praising Steam and Valve as godsends, while trashing the Xbox One for aiming to do the exact same thing. Thank you, internet, for taking away my quick-game-swapping feature on the Xbox One, because you just need to be able to sell your game back after you’re done using it how you want - thank you, internet, for turning the video game industry into a prostitution ring. Thank you, internet, for helping release an upgraded Xbox 360, because an upgraded PS3 wasn’t enough.

In case that sarcasm wasn’t obvious to anyone: damn you, internet.
