xbox-one-unboxingWhen the Microsoft Xbox One gaming console was first introduced, there were some gamers who were excited at all the new games and features that they would be getting if they were to buy it. On the other hand Microsoft’s policies regarding used games and internet connectivity left many gamers a little upset, especially when Microsoft pretty much told customers to get an Xbox 360 if they weren’t happy about it. After a tremendous amount of backlash, Microsoft announced that they would be rescinding some of their more unpopular policies, much to the delight of many.

However Peter Molyneux, creator of games such as Dungeon Keeper, Black & White, and the Fable series just to name a few, seems to think that the backlash against Microsoft has been a little “unfair”. Speaking to the folks at TechRadar, Molyneux was quoted as saying, “But the world we live in now is that we have to realise, especially if you’re a big corporation, if you make one step wrong, the world will leap on you, and unfairly, very unfairly, they will judge you.” Molyneux also went on to state that he believes the future of gaming is online, although the adoption of it will depend largely on developers and whether or not they will be able to create the right experience.

What do you guys think? Was the backlash against Microsoft unfair? Or did you think that had it been “fair”, Microsoft might not have changed their mind?
