Not one month after E3 did Microsoft feel the backlash from gamers over the Xbox One's always online connectivity, 24-hour online check-in, and restricted used games practices. At first, it was only the grudgings of gamers, but at E3, Microsoft's main competitor, Sony, attacked the Xbox One's impurities. This threw the bone in Sony's yard and shot their pre-order sales through the roof. Sony quickly estimated that upon release, the Playstation 4 will quickly sell out before they can produce more.
Earlier today, Microsoft's Don Mattrick came out to the press to say that the Xbox One will be uploading a Day One Patch that will allow the Xbox to live offline as well as not require itself to have a check-up online. Many gamers called for this in the beginning but until today, Microsoft stone-walled them. Finally, after seeing the light from E3 aand Sony, maybe, just maybe we'll see a decent system.
