1) Because many of the players here (or a big percentage of) are PS3 players exclusively, so of course they'll hate on Microsoft.
Actually I think thats incorrect to say. alot of us here(myself included) are both PS3 and XBOX360 players. We dont care about the company behind the system, we care about what the system offers us.
2) People were hating on Microsoft's rumored "Xbox 720" after the PS4 was announced back in February, even though they didn't know anything about it or even it's name. I remember reading hate topics on Gamefaqs in March how people hated Microsoft, mainly due to the rumored "Non-used games" topic generating most of the fray.
And if one console is offering used game sales, but the other wants to restrict it, yet its something that we already have current gen, why wouldnt they be upset?
3) PS4 and Xbox One are both equally great systems, both worth purchasing. Don't be scared to talk back to the Xbox trolls who have no intention of getting an Xbox One. And if you're complaining about having to buy games "new" then there is a strong chance you're a person who probably wouldn't go out and buy a new console anyways. (At least not for a year or more).
I dont think XBOX ONE is worth purchasing at all, and my argument as for why is because of DRM. I know alot of other people who DO buy new games, and new consoles - myself included, who feel the exact same way as i do. It has nothing to do with the amount of money we have to spend, it has to do with the moral ratifications and restrictions imposed upon us by the services that the XBOX ONE provides.
 
I disagree. The difference is that XB1 came out and gave us the worst Tech Reveal in the history of reveals. Giving nothing but terrible consumer news, annoying mechanics and TV, TV, SPORTS, CALL OF DUTY. funny video.....

They deserved to be shit one because to this day they keep giving us more and more news, and EXPLANATIONS, that are attempts at justifying their decisions and are NOT WORKING. Whether or not this is a move by them or the developers, they are making one hell of a bad PR move and equally one hell of a MEME and JOKE HUB.

PS4 on the other hand had quite a damn good reveal. Giving us a lot of stuff we wanted, new ideas we didn't think of as well as TV and what not.
HOWEVER, unlike XB1, they didn't give us the terrible DRM news or used game limits or anything that XB1 did that just ruins everything in a gamers mind.
Sony not saying these things was the best move ever in terms of creating a positive look and hype for their system.
The thing is they didn't DENY it. They just didn't bring it up. So whether or not Sony does these things, as of THIS MOMENT they are winning in every way because they kept all news given positive.

It will be AFTER E3 that we will truly see where the next gen, as a whole, is going and whether or not it's just Microsoft being greedy ass-crackers.
I suspect Sony will crush dreams at E3, but they're still better.

On the other hand, game wise. GIVE ME MOTHER FUCKING FINAL FANTASY VERSUS 13 OR 15. Whichever name it has, and make it a god damn launch title.

DRM or Digital Rights Management isn't even worth complaining about, and here is why.

1) All you need to do is sign on once every 24 hours to verify your license to the product, it's nothing inconveniencing because hell, you need to have an internet connection in the first place to even complain about the Xbox One! You sign in - it's verified - game on.

2) People who hate DRM the most are pirates, hackers, and people who want to rent games. Hackers hate DRM because it makes the game harder to mod. Pirates hate it because they can't pirate the game and put it up for Free Download on bit torrent sites. Renters hate DRM because the obvious, you can't resell the game after you purchased it, you're the exclusive owner to the product.

3) It's not even worth bitching about because it's going to be just like how Steam works, and the Xbox Marketplace has worked the past few years. Instead of a game disc, you're basically going to get an install disc. People who say "I have to be online to verify my rights to it though!" That isn't hard at all, I'm sorry if you're playing in Iraq or Africa, but it's not a problem for 99% of gamers. Being online and having an internet connection to play games? IMPOSSIBRU!!

P.S. There is nothing 'morally' wrong with cutting renters out of the equation, as there is nothing 'morally' justified by renters playing games that they didn't give the developer one cent for. There will always be free games to play, and people love them.
