Obviously the best guy for this job is Anthony Weiner! He has the tech savvy skills to really ‘stick it’ to NYC in ways that Bloomberg never dreamed of. You folks have quite the choice in this mayoral election. But based on the commentary of the last Vergecast, whoever you elect will probably just be a… Never mind.
Lets wait & see is M$ can actually manufacture a console that won’t cost billions $$$ to offer a hardware replacement program like the ‘RROD’ 360 nightmare. Even today the 360 gets hardware failures on a semi regular basis. The design of it & its failure rate was & is just inexcusably poor. And for the console that supposedly beat Sony, M$ for sure counted all those hardware replacements as ‘new’ unit sales. Clever math that was.
None of this matters much anyway. These consoles have a tremendous uphill battle winning hearts & minds over the cheaper tablet & smartphone alternatives. Developers have also flocked to those platforms due to the lower cost of entry. It’ll be interesting to watch.
