G4TV reports: I've stood by and watched while president Obama gave up on the public option in the healthcare overhaul, and I even support his Marxist takeover of The United States of Amerikka, but with this morning's speech to our nation's school kids, Obama has finally gone too far. Obama has dissed the Xbox -- again!
"Now I've given a lot of speeches about education. And I've talked a lot about responsibility. I've talked about your teachers' responsibility for inspiring you, and pushing you to learn," Obama said this morning in his address to the youth of the country. "I've talked about your parents' responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and get your homework done, and don't spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with that Xbox," Obama said.
Obama has been flogging the "ZOMG! Turn off your Xbox!" line since before he was Supreme Dictator of the U.S., So I can only conclude that the president is a PS3 fanboy, either that or it's a coded, political "dog whistle" statement aimed at people sill using the original Xbox. He didn't' say put down the 360, after all. But either way, this aggression will not stand, man.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.

Xbox is synonymous with video game console.
We'll he is telling the truth why would he say ps3 when the average age of a ps3 gamer is 28. Average age of a 360 gamer is teenagers.
