Me when it launched: this is a terrible idea and will hold Xbox back

Xbox fans: nuh uhhhh! It's brilliant!

Thing is, it could be a good idea if they didn’t have such strict parity rules - play the game, but not necessity with the exact same features (ie, disabling split screen, but still allowing co-op). Heck, that could even have been a selling point to get people to “upgrade” to an X.

They pitched parity in the beginning which is what I based what I thoughts on, 100% agree with you on that. Even if the dropped the expectations on how well it's supposed to run.... Drop it to a 720p console
